This page is a link to the trigger repository for the Official Game Client. Listed here are only scripts specifically donated to this repository or otherwise homeless. Please do not add scripts that are published elsewhere without permission from the author(s).

There are a great many examples on the web for other clients such as tiny fugue and zmud.

As one might expect, these triggers come with no warranty of any sort. Use at your own risk and all of that.

About Triggers

Trigger scripts are stored in the batclient/scripts directory and are files that end in .bcs. Triggers can be written manually or generated using Era's Bat Era's BatClient trig generator thingie 1.0. Once you've added/edited a trigger or script of triggers you can use the following two commands to reload and re-read your triggers.

/scriptreload
/scriptbootup

Check for parsing errors after reload and execution errors after bootup. More (and possibly) better information can be found in the Batclient help files which can be accessed from within the client.

Installing These Trigger Scripts

This is probably already explained in the client help but here goes:

1. Find your batclient directory. For the rest of this help we will call this directory <code<$BATCLIENT</code>.
   • On Linux this is probably ~/.batclient or something like that.
   • On Windows XP it is c:\Documents and Settings\<username>\batclient
   • On Windows Vista it is C:\Users\<username>\batclient
   • On Windows 7 it is C:\Users\<username>\batclient
   • On Windows 10 it is C:\Users\user\batclient
2. Cut and paste the script that you want from this page and save it in the $BATCLIENT/scripts directory.
   1. On windows do this by running notepad
   2. copy/paste the desired script into a new text file.
   3. Save the file in the scripts directory with .bcs as the extension.
   • If you are using Linux and don't know how to do this...
3. Either restart Batclient or type /scriptreload followed by /scriptbootup.

Trigger Library

Please put each trigger on a separate page named "batclient triggers foo" where foo is the script name.

• Tzarakk Triggers - a set of triggers to make life as a Tzarakk easier.
• Barbarian Triggers - a set of triggers to make life as a Barbarian rowdier.
• Bard Play Helper Script - a script to help you to perform a bard play.

For a larger library see Hair's BatClient triggers page

Deprecated due to party prots, but still interesting to look at for examples.

• Party Prots Batclient Triggers - from Rigger - originally posted here.
