^(%s)(%d)~)(%s)(%w)(%s)(%w)(%s)(%d)

"%1" goes to 15, 1 through 15. I only want the trigger to fire on those 15, and Add "%8" from each 15 lines, and toss it in a DB var.

Is there a work around With #IF's to get it to ONLY capture those 15 lines?

Im stumped... im tired but i cant for the life of me figure it out.

I have no idea what problem that trigger is attempting to solve and the text it's trying to match. Here's some info that'll help us to help you:

1) What problem are you trying to solve?
2) What text is that trigger supposed to match?
3) What's it supposed to do once it's matched it?
5) How is that going to solve the original problem?
4) What's it (not) doing that it should(n't) be doing?

I don't mean that those five specific questions are the only ones we'll need answers to, just that we need a lot more information about what you're trying to do and what's not working. At the moment I have no clue what you're asking for. Give us as much information as you can. Also, bear in mind that most of us haven't played or probably even heard of your MUD, so we have no idea what "tapping" is until you explain it to us.

It will also help to have some live examples from your MUD. Paste it in code boxes so that it preserves the spacing, too.

Besides, %1 is %s... which is white space. If you're only using 2 %d in the code portion of the trigger then you can simplify it a LOT by doing this:
