Alright, this seems pretty simple, and yes it works... except I cant get the trigger to echo the text i want when the variable equals stop... so here it is:

#VAR move {n|e|s|w|stop}
#VAR moves 0
#ALIAS go {#EXEC %item(@move, @moves)}
#ALARM *1 {#IF (@move=stop,#ECHO DONE!,go;#ADD moves 1)}

I have tried a few different things, but it just wont work, Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The #IF command works with brackets. You have your if set up like the %if function, which is slightly different.

You want this.
#ALARM *1 {#IF (@move=stop){#ECHO DONE!}{go;#ADD moves 1}}

Also, @move will never equal "stop" because it's value is set at first to "n|e|s|w|stop" but it is never changed afterwards, so there is not reason why it should ever equal "stop"

However, %item(@move, @moves) will be equal to "stop" once @moves equals 5, but then you will receive the message "Done!" every second. Also, the first element of a list is not 0, but 1. I suggest revising the logic here.
