Aardwolf MUSHclient alias - easy cexits for direction and back

README.md

How to use

1. Add this alias
   • regular expression: true
   • send to: script
2. Use m[o|u] to open. For example: mou becomes mapper cexit open u;;u mue becomes mapper cexit cast knock e;;open e;;e and also adds sets higher cexit_wait to make sure it succeeds
3. If it's successful, it will create the same cexit in the opposite way

Notes

1. If you want to change the command cast knock you can do so by changing the unlockCmd variable
2. If you want to change the time it waits on unlock, change the unlockTimeout variable

Happy mudding!
