Im trying to trigger off this:

~* You think your (*) skill has improved. ~*

Sometimes the line has a two word skill word where the wild is.. like shield use.

and I have this to compensate for that, and create the variable name and add 1 to it as a counter with this bit.

#ad %replace( %1, " ", "_") 1

Now I just cant figure out how to display that 'value' dynamicly.

under the #add %replace I want it to execute a command that says what skill variable was created dynamically, and the value of THAT specific variable.. but i just cant seem to figure it out.

I've searched.. but no help. Please help?

version is 7x something but im on vista and the help function in zmud itself wont work due to vista incompatibility

Short answer: @{%replace( %1, " ", "_")}

I can't give you a long asnwer without knowing what you really want to do, but hopefully you can figure it out from the short answer.

Off the top of my head I think you should be able to do this.

#show %replace( %1, " ", "_") was created dynamically and its value is @{%replace( %1, " ", "_")}

ahh great hint! This is what i have for the value

#var skill %replace( %1, " ", "_")
#ad %replace( %1, " ", "_") 1
ooc @skill imps at @{%replace( %1, " ", "_")}

and it displays:

You say (OOC), 'offensive imps at 2'

*imps stand for improvements, it takes a certain number of improvements to go from say poor to good.

Now another request:

if i type skills i get a list like this:
> skills
show skills
aim blows: Below Average.
attack speed: Below Average.
brawling: Poor.
butchering: A Tyro.
control: Not Very Good.
cooking: Unskilled.
daring: A Beginner.
fighting: Below Average.

How would I replace the second column with the value that I get from the first trigger with the %replace? For instance i would like it to look like this:

> skills
show skills
aim blows: Below Average. +30
attack speed: Below Average. + 10
brawling: Poor. + 5

where the +(number) would be improvement counter or the variable's numeric value thats getting added with the trigger used to create the variable and store the 'imps'

Something like this?

#trig {^([%w ])(: [%w ].)} {#sub {%1%2 %if(@{%replace(%1," ","_")},+ @{%replace(%1," ","_")})}

EDIT: Unlucky, Arminas :P
