Performing actions on character connection/game init

Hi, all.
I need to perform JS code when game is loaded or character is connected.
I've tried to create GMCP triggers on both core.hello and char.login, but they were never triggered.
What am I missing?

for example, if you want to sendGMCP([[Core.Options { "npc_comms" : "off" }]]) on gmcp.char.login you have to put it on some delay, as it doesn't work otherwise. Not sure why, but a few seconds is enough.

the webclient js triggers and such are loaded with your characters login, as i understand it, so it would be hard to trigger on that part.

So it seems, the triggers are simply loaded too late.
Any chance we can get a fix? Just trigger the char.login once triggers are loaded, in any case triggers are loaded only after the login?

fix?
Trigger on a line done after login.. like the "last login was from" or something like that.

As you can see triggers REALLY load last.

You recover? Should be after that, yeah?

You don't always recover.
I wonder how hard would it be to trigger char.login event right after loading triggers? Additional line of code, I can do it and send it to whoever needed, if they're THAT busy.

The order in which those messages appear (You recover *items*, Welcome Gardener, triggers enabled etc) change oftentimes. I decided to just make an "armself" alias to do stuff when im back in the realms manually.

I initialize mine with alias manually right now as well, but I'm looking for a more consistent way, than relying on messages that might or might not show up during logging on.
