I would like to be able to cast a spell on someone, should they ask for it.

I see this: Steve says 'invisibility'

I would then like to have the trigger send cast invisibility steve to the mudd!

Tia!

#trigger {^(%w) says 'invisibility'} {cast invis %1} ... thats the most basic version ....

Thanks for the help. I tried that and it just caused me to cast invisibility on myself.
I changed the %w to %1 and it worked.

I don't quite understand what the #trigger or the curly brackets and the carot are for. I just use the GUI and created a new trigger, put (in the 'Pattern' dialog box) %1 says 'invisibility please'$ and then in the window below pattern I put cast invis %1

Thanks!

The text robecks gave was something you could type into the command line. The curly brackets would tell Cmud which part was the trigger pattern and which part was the trigger value.

The reason the trigger didn't work is probably because you didn't use parentheses. The parentheses are an important part of the pattern. You should _not_ use %1, %2, etc. inside the trigger pattern. Zmud allowed this, and it is still present in Cmud for backward compatibility, but it is deprecated and could be removed in future versions. The correct pattern would be:

Thanks for the information, I have it all squared away now, and the triggers are firing away like they are suppose to , yes I am using %w

Thanks again!
