New to scripting with zmud/cmud and I cant figure out how to grab a variable
 
like I said I'm new to this and it's all pretty complicated for me sadly. I'm trying to figure out how to grab a number in this example.
(2) The corpse of a commoner lies here rotting.
I want to grab the 2 inside () so I can add the counter to a corpse checker
I figured it would work with %d but I'm not sure what the line would look like

There is a helper for this very thing built into CMUD.

If you make a new trigger via the settings editor, switch to the pattern tab and enter the raw text into the line marked Text.

But in this example it would be:

#TR {~((%d)~) The corpse of a (*) lies here rotting.} {do something}
