I am trying to create a set prompt
from this prompt
[Health] 6676/6676 [Movement] 1294/1300 >

The Vars are for the purpose of making a Health guage. .

I need to get the full trigger and button code . . .If possible! Thanks!!

#BUTTON 1 {hp} {} {} {} {@hp} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {Gauge|9|12|@maxhp|@maxhp/10} {} "" {"Explore"|"Inset"} {} {hp}

#BUTTON 2 {mv} {} {} {} {@mv} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {Gauge|14|12|@maxmv|@maxmv/10} {} "" {"Explore"|"Inset"} {} {mv}

#trigger {^~[Health~] (%d)/(%d) ~[Movement~] (%d)/(%d) >} {#var hp %1;#var maxhp %2;#var mv %3;#var maxmv %4} "" {"nocr"|"prompt"}

Cut-n-paste those at the command line and you should be good to go.

I used the suggestions, modified slightly for my different prompt:

<100%hp 100%m 100%mv 4761tnl (9.31%)>

#trigger {^~<(%d)~%hp (%d)~%m (%d)~%mv (%d)~%tnl}}{#var hp %1;#var mv %3} ""

#BUTTON 1 {hp} {} {} {} {@hp} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {Gauge|9|12|@maxhp|@maxhp/10} {} "" {"Explore"|"Inset"} {} {hp}

#BUTTON 2 {mv} {} {} {} {@mv} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {Gauge|14|12|@maxmv|@maxmv/10} {} "" {"Explore"|"Inset"} {} {mv}

All I get is two black buttons that say hp and mv respectively, but they don't show anything when they change. I checked my variables too and this didn't see any @hp or @mv. What am I doing wrong here? Is it the trigger or the buttons?

Try these.

#BUTTON 1 {hp} {} {} {} {@hp} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {Gauge|9|12|100|10} {} "" {"Explore"|"Inset"} {} {hp}

#BUTTON 2 {mv} {} {} {} {@mv} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {Gauge|14|12|100|10} {} "" {"Explore"|"Inset"} {} {mv}

#TRIGGER {^~<(%d)~%hp %d~%m (%d)~%mv %dtnl ~(%d~%~)~>} {#VAR hp%1;#VAR mv %2} "" {"nocr"|"prompt"}

The trigger pattern you used doesn't match the prompt you posted. This would cause the variables to not get set. Your button commands also don't know what @maxhp and @maxmv are either, unless you're capturing them with a different trigger.

Thanks! But it still doesn't work.
The buttons show up as green/yellow (respectively) text on black background; regardless of what my hp and mv are. I checked to make sure the variable were created, and there were no @hp or @mv. I manually created the variables and assigned arbitrary values to them, but was unable to get the guages to display anything but a completely black button with caption.
Help?
Also please what are {"nocr"|"prompt"} for?

{"nocr"|"prompt"} specifies the trigger options.

NoCR - trigger fires on on a prompt
Prompt - trigger does not fire on newline

I'm at work so I can't try the code myself but try it without the prompt option. I suspect that for some reason, you prompt may not be properly detected. If that's the case then check View -> Preferences - General. Scroll down until you see 'MUD Prompt' and make sure there is a '<' in the first field. Hope that helps.

It _was_ the MUD prompt setting. Thanks!
Also, fyi in case anyone else should be having the problem, only the mv was working, and I kept getting "Variable hp100 not defined". I edited the Value field of the trigger and added a space between "hp" and "%1", it is missing if you c/p from the code above.
