Overview

Command Syntax
addproc <room|mobile> mudl setproc <room|mobile> ## timer_#
Note that the # sign after the timer indicates how frequently the function is called. A value of 1 indicates the function should be called every time the timer fires. A value of N indicates the function should be called every Nth time the timer fires.
Global Variables
The following global variables are available:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| %c | Character | The mobile that the MUDL script is attached to. If the script is attached to a room, this value is NULL. |
| %r | Room | The room that the MUDL script is attached to. If the script is attached to a mobile, this value is NULL. |
Return Values
