Saw this on a earlier post by bonn and its exactly what im trying to do i copied and pasted into my triggers and its not firing. :/ ive tried to alter a little bit but just set it back how i found it still new to this


<triggers>
  <trigger
   enabled="y"
   lines_to_match="4"
   match="^You slide in your probe into (.*?) and feel out the inside\.\n[A-Z][a-z]+\: Attempts to probe (.*?) \(picks [+-](\d+), (\d+\.\d+)\+(\d+)=(\d+\.\d+), (\d+\.\d+) Target\)\n\*progress\*\n\.\.\. Clearly revealing its inner workings. '(.*?)' is your best option\.\Z"
   multi_line="y"
   regexp="y"
   sequence="100"
  >
  <send>pick %1 %8</send>
  </trigger>
</triggers>

You slide in your probe into a cedar wood tattered case and feel out the inside.
Slimke: Attempts to probe a cedar wood tattered case (picks +20, 84.0+18=102.0, 0.0 Target) *progress*

Here's your problem:


 Target\)\n\*progress

There is no newline after "Target)".

The client has wrapped the line at column 80, but that is a soft wrap. In the regexp the line break just appears as a space (it indents that line by one space, so the space is actually visible).

This matches:


<triggers>
  <trigger
   enabled="y"
   lines_to_match="3"
   match="^You slide in your probe into (.*?) and feel out the inside\.\n[A-Z][a-z]+\: Attempts to probe (.*?) \(picks [+-](\d+), (\d+\.\d+)\+(\d+)=(\d+\.\d+), (\d+\.\d+) Target\) \*progress\*\n  \.\.\. Clearly revealing its inner workings. '(.*?)' is your best option\.\Z"
   multi_line="y"
   regexp="y"
   sequence="100"
  >
  <send>pick %1 %8</send>
  </trigger>
</triggers>

For advice on how to copy the above, and paste it into MUSHclient, please see Pasting XML.

its pulling them just not putting them into the command its just putting through pick

pick a cedar wood tattered case twist

figure it out the word cedar wood tattered case needs to be in "" to define it as the object in the statment. how would those be added.
