Re: HP line evaluation

The multiple %s is proabbly your best way to go.  The good news is that
the performance shouldn't really be hit too hard, it breaks down to just
one regexp regardless of how complicated the action trigger is.

As to processing it, you're stuck now with dealing with legacy -tin
syntax.  The best bet when that gets too complicated is to switch over to
python.  For that you can do

#action {HP[%1/%2] SP[%3/%4]} {#processhp {%1} {%2} {%3} {%4}}

Then write a quick python module like so:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import exported, modules.modutils

commands = {}

def processhp_cmd(session, args, input):
  hp = args["hp"]
  maxhp = args["maxhp"]
  if (1.0 * hp) / maxhp < 0.5:
    exported.lyntin_command("tell notadragon HELP ME PLEASE!!!")

commands["processhp"] = (processhp_cmd,"hp maxhp sp maxsp")

def load():
  modules.modutils.load_commands(commands)

def unload():
  modules.modutils.unload_commands(commands.keys())


Then just drop that somewhere.  Depending on what your hp bar shows you
might have to do some more processing on the arguments, but it will be WAY
easier to do in python than with lyntin #ifs and whatnot.

This is also 3.3-specific in how it registers the commands.. so you'll
have to tweak if you're on 4.0+.
