The scripts listed in this category are written to work in the TinTin++ client.

If you would like to request a script, please do so on the Requests page.

If you would like to report a bug or request a feature for a specific script, please do so on that script's talk page.

Basic Info

TinTin++ is a bit different than you may be used to in a mud client. It doesn't have a character selection screen and it doesn't persistently remember your scripts and variables. Instead, you keep your scripts saved as plain-text files and load them up using the #read command. Personally, I keep each script as a separate file, and each of my characters as a separate file. The character file then is full of a bunch of #reads which load all the scripts that I want for that character like so:

  • JoeBlow.char
#var player JoeBlow
#read RunCount.tin
#read WikiSearch.tin
#read JoeBlow.gear
#read PsiTriggers.tin
#session JoeBlow avatar.outland.org 3000
$player
<password>

Then when I open JoeBlow.char with tt++, it'll automatically log JoeBlow in, and load up all of the scripts that I mentioned. It has a lot of really cool potential when you get used to it.

Scripts

Run Stats Counter: Counts numerous things during your runs. Mostly xp gained and lost, and certain actions performed during runs (bash, trip, rescue, flee, death, etc) and shows them only when appropriate.
WikiSearch: Searches AvatarWiki for whatever you'd like.

Before using actions, make sure you are familiar with Avatar's Trigger Policy.
