Event_Task_Complete question

[Soak]

I have about 40 tasks that end in the same zone and have the same reward (in addition to the item/exp rewarded in the actual task). My player.pl looks like this:

sub EVENT_TASK_COMPLETE{
	if($task_id == 311){
		quest::ding();
		$client->AddAAPoints(2);
		$client->Message(4, "You receive two additional AA!");
	}
	
	if($task_id == 312){
		quest::ding();
		$client->AddAAPoints(2);
		$client->Message(4, "You receive two additional AA!");
	}
	
}

etc....

Can I simplify this so that the one event has multiple task_id's rather than filling up the player.pl with 40 different ones?

I know this is probably a simple PERL thing, but with all the info coming into my brain lately, I just can't seem to find it. The more I learn, the more respect I have for all you guys who have helped create this community. I'm also a little jealous of y'alls skills! Wish it came so easy to me.

Thanks for your help as usual!

Simply change 'MAXID' to your highest ID, assuming they're all in a range:

sub EVENT_TASK_COMPLETE {
    if($task_id ~~ [311..MAXID]) {
        quest::ding();
        $client->AddAAPoints(2);
        $client->Message(4, "You receive two additional AA!");
    }
}

~~ Is the smartmatch operator that attempts to match the left operand to the any data in the right operand, similar to a grep of an array.
