There is a system alias called "atconnect" for the value of the alias use the following:

What the above line does is on connection to the mud server it will start a log in the zMud folder using the character name and date.
MUSHCLIENT Tips/Tools/Macros
Tips
- Installation
- If on Windows, do not install to the Program Files folder. That is a read-only directory and will give you errors when trying to save your world (triggers/aliases/etc..)

- Command Stacking
- Used to being able to send multiple commands by separating them with a semicolon? This can be enabled by going to Game/Configure/Commands... and if you like using the semicolon as a shortcut for group chat, you can pick something else for it to use.

- TFC Maps v1.0
[ download ] - TFC Maps v1.0 for MSDP GUI v2.0 Patch
[ download ]
- View every map from this wiki in-game.
- Features: Draggable map list and map viewer windows. Maps viewed inside the window are also draggable.
- Patch Installation Download "TFC Maps v1.0" and follow Normal Installation instructions first. Now download the patch and instead of adding the "TFC_Maps.xml" plugin, use the patch plugin "TFC_Maps_for_MSDP_GUI.xml" . Really it doesn't matter where the patch plugin is, but personally I would put it into the TFC_Maps folder to keep things organized.
- Patch Note: Windows are not draggable in the patch version because if they were, other miniwindows in the MSDP GUI would overlap them making it next to impossible to use.
- Normal Installation Extract TFC_Maps.zip into your main MUSHclient folder then simply add the plugin located in the extracted folder.
- Notes: Right click on the map viewer window to view large/small maps and to close the map viewer window. Map list window has a red X in the top right corner to close. Not compatible with the MSDP GUI. Maps are not all in alphabetical order. Commands below are to help with not having to take your hand off the keyboard as often.
- Commands:
- map list Opens the map list window.
- close map list Closes the map list window.
- close map Closes the map viewer window.
- view page # Change to a different page in the map list window. (ie: view page 4)
- view map # Each map has a number in front of it, use that number to view the map. (ie: view map 31)
- last map Bring up the last map you were looking at.

- Chat mini-window v2.7
[ download ]
- Echos chat into a customizable mini-window.
- Right-click on the mini-window for options.
- Commands: chats show and chats hide
- Notes: If you are seeing double of the chat channels in the main window, simply right click on the mini-window and toggle the echo. This update fixed utter/utters so it doesn't echo last message and You tell now echos properly.
- MushClient 4.52+ Recommended
- Echos chat into a customizable mini-window.
- MSDP Prompt Bars v1.0
[ download ]
- Want just the live bars, but without the GUI? Here it is!
- Draggable Live Health/Mana/Move/Enemy bars from the MSDP GUI.
- MushClient 4.52+ Recommended
- MSDP GUI v2.0
[ download ]- Creates a GUI for The Final Challenge
- Features: Know exactly how many ticks every affected by spells last. See your equipment stats totaled up. Graphical Minimap. See where doors are without having to look. Know when you successfully hide and sneak. Live Health/Mana/Move/Enemy bars. Use your own Avatar.
- Installation: Extract Generic.zip into your main Mushclient folder.
- Open up your world file or create a new one.
- Add the plugin TFC_Msdp.xml (File/Plugins.../Add...) MUSHclient/Generic/worlds/plugins/TFC_Msdp.xml
- Save the world file. (File/Save World Details)
- Close the world, and reopen it. (You can do this without closing the program. Just click the tiny X in the top right corner or just go to File/Close World)
- It may take a second to load, but you should now see the GUI (Graphical User Interface)
- Since it resizes the main game window, you will need to make sure Wrap Output is checked so text doesn't go offscreen. (Game/Wrap Output). If you have a really high resolution, you can skip the wrap output steps.
- Now you need to adjust what column number it wraps the output at until text no longer goes offscreen. (ALT+5 or Game/Configure/Output...)
- Everytime you adjust the column number, connect/disconnect to see if you've adjusted it right. Personally, I find it works best at 72, but it will be different for everyone depending on their screen resolution.
- You're done!
- Open up your world file or create a new one.
- Avatars: If you would like you use your own Avatar, place it into the Avatars folder (MUSHclient/Generic/Avatars) and rename it to Default. The Avatar must be in .png format. If you do not have your own Avatar and wish to use an already made one, pick one from AllAvatars website.
- To uninstall: Remove or disable the plugin. Save the World Details, then close the world and reopen.
- Notes: Since their is no msdp stats installed serverside, I have created a workaround. After you log in, it will automatically check your equipment once to gather stats. Anytime you change your equipment or wimpy, simply check your equipment to update the stats. (eq/equip/equipment)
- Version Notes: Added compatibility for the TFC Maps patch. Fixed absorb spell icon. Changed the "show stats" alias so it shows it all in one line instead of a list for easier copy/pasting. Pre-release with built in stat workaround. Not all spell icons have been created, so some use a generic one. You can still see what spell it is by hovering your mouse over the icon. Minimap does not work in all rooms, however, it is still useful to see where doors are in the rooms. This is a server-sided issue that cannot be fixed client-side. Some affected by spells show multiple times (ie: bless x4 / enchant weapon x2) This is also a server-sided issue. I have made the enchant weapon icon completely black for now, as transparent wouldn't work.
- Commands: show stats
