Simulate
Script function world.Simulate Read about scripting Type Method Summary Simulate input from the MUD, for debugging purposes Prototype `void Simulate(BSTR Text);` View list of data type meanings Description `The argument to this function is supplied to MUSHclient as if it had been sent from the MUD. This is intended for debugging triggers etc, similar to the Game -> Test Trigger menu option. This should be used with caution inside scripts. If you simulate input inside a trigger, the input causing another trigger to fire, you are likely to get a stack overflow. An example of using it would be to bind it to a keystroke (like F11), so that if you are testing a trigger that matches on: Exits: north ... then you might do this: Accelerator ("F11", "/Simulate 'Exits: north\n' ")` VBscript example
    Simulate "Exits: north" + vbCrLf
Jscript example
    Simulate ("Exits: north\n");
Lua example
    Simulate ("Exits: north\n")
Lua notes
    You can supply multiple arguments, which are concatenated together.
Return value
    Nothing.
