Hmm, I am surprised Nick doesn't have this ability built in. I'm sure he'll take it as a suggestion to implement in a future version.

In the meantime, you will have to call a script from your timer, to play the sound for you.

Use this MUSHclient function:

Get my plugins here: http://www.magnumsworld.com/muds/

Constantly proving I don't know what I am doing...

The script in this case is pretty darn simple. Make the timer call it by putting its name (eg. TimerSound) into the "script" field of the timer. The script goes into your script file. You could append to the exampscript.vbs file that comes with MUSHclient.


sub TimerSound (timername)
  world.Sound "c:\my_sounds_directory\mysound.wav"
end sub
