Hi

#trig {^You surround (*) with a telekinetic shield of force.$} {#ALARM {+416} {#SAY %ansi(green)Force Shield on %1 is going down in 4 seconds}}
This trigger used to work in Zmud but not working in Cmud, it seems that the value of %1 isnt stored in the Alarm trigger.
When the trigger fires it shows Force Shield on is going down in 4 seconds

Does it work if you add {} around the text in the #SAY? The brackets should cause proper expansion of the expression and store the value rather than the %1 itself.

Tested it with or without say. It didnt matter, I also noticed this alias not working (same error value of %1 not being used)
#al check-chest {unlock %-1;#ALARM {+12} {open %-1;look at %-1;close %-1}}

Yes, this behaviour has changed. You need to use a local variable:

$params = %-1
unlock $params
#alarm {+12} {open $params;look at $params;close $params}

This may or may not be a bug, I'll let Zugg make that call. The %1 seems not be working because of scoping. The %1 will assume the scope of the alarm, which by the time it gets executed doesn't have a value for %1 and nothing seems to force it to resolve.

However if you made this slight modification, then it works.

I'm pretty sure it is. And with the trigger you have there, you could change the (*) wildcard to ($Temp:*) and avoid having to set the variable manually.
