Need some help!
 
Alright, so I am not used to using these windows in Cmud to make triggers.. I've been playing using MM for a long time. I am trying to make a trigger to capture multiple lines, send them to a window, and then trigger off, closing that window. Ill show some text here.
Please type in the characters shown below using the command "captcha <answer>":
Code:
 _   _   _   _   _____  __    __  _ 
| | | | | | | | | ____| \ \  / / | |
| | | | | | | | | |__    \ \/ /  | |
| | | | | | | | |  __|    \  /   | |
| |_| | | |_| | | |___    / /    | |
\_____/ \_____/ |_____|  /_/     |_|


I want the captcha to go into a temp window called Captcha

Then
Your Captcha response is correct, thank you!
I want to close that window.

A friend tried helping me in mud, but only confused me with creating multi state and choosing with in two lines and one line, and yea well im confused.. I am not used to using my mouse or navigating windows to create triggers, or a script so if I cant type it out I am lost. Any help thanks

A multistate trigger is definitely the way to go here.
Is there some sort of delimiter at the bottom to let you know when the block is over (even if just a blank line or your prompt)?

Code:
#TRIGGER {Please type in the characters shown below using the command "captcha <answer>": } {
  #MAKEWINDOW Captcha open "floating"
  #MAKEWINDOW Captcha Redirect
  }
#CONDITION {*} {#IF (%length(%line)>3) {#STATE 1} {#MAKEWINDOW _previous Redirect}} {Within|Param=1}

Something like that will redirct text to the new window til you get a line with less than 4 characters on it.

#TRIGGER {Your Captcha response is correct, thank you!} {#MAKEWINDOW Captcha close}

Okay, so since I cant figure out how to paste a screenshot here.
As soon as I paste what you posted into the command line, I get this error.
Parse error.
Error Parsing command:
#TRIGGER {Please type in the characters shown below using the command "captcha <answer>": } {
#MAKEWINDOW Captcha open "floating"
#MAKEWINDOW Captcha Redirect
}
#CONDITION {*} {#IF (%length(%line)>3) {#STATE 1} {#MAKEWINDOW _previous Redirect}} {Within|Param=1}

ahh thats an issue with an improper function call, my bad, try:

#TRIGGER {Please type in the characters shown below using the command "captcha <answer>": } {
#MAKEWINDOW Captcha open "floating"
#MAKEWINDOW Captcha Redirect
}
#CONDITION {*} {#IF (%len(%line)>3) {#STATE 1} {#MAKEWINDOW _previous Redirect}} {Within|Param=1}

Doesn't work. Just doesn't do anything.

It works on my side.
If the triggers aren't firing, then the pattern you provided isn't accurate.
Edit the pattern accordingly until it works.

Alright, just for measure, I deleted every trigger I had to test,
Please type in the characters shown below using the command "captcha <answer>": is the pattern.
It still does nothing. Not sure what I could be doing wrong, I am simply pasting into the input bar. It works on your end? Ahh... You play there too?

Well after clicking on the trigger button, and looking at the First pattern, the second pattern shows up as a red * and the #IF part (%len(%line)>3) {#STATE 1} is all colored up i see megneta, green and yellow in the line.

The coloring isn't an issue, it is there to make it easier to troubleshoot code while skimming.

And no, i don't even know where there is.

The code words with the sample provided... unless they are being sneaky and disguising the info as prompt data...

Try checking on Prompt and uncheck on new line, in the options at the bottom of the #TRIGGER and see if that works.
