Hi, I'm playing a starwars mud that includes hyperspacing(Star Wars Reach of the Empire), the only problem is you have to manually drop out of hyperspace. I was wondering if it would be possible ot create a trigger to setup an alarm to drop me out of hyperspace, based off this output

Edit: I want it to drop me out at 0 seconds, or if that's not possible beep me at like 10 seconds. Thanks for the help!

#TR {ETA:%s(%d)m%s(%d)s} {#ALA +%eval((%1 * 60) + %2) {drop out of hyperspace}}

You might need to work on the pattern of the trigger to make sure that it doesn't match when you don't want it to, but here is a basic approach:
#TRIGGER {ETA:%s(%d)m%s(%d)s} {#VAR eta {%eval((%1*60) + %2)};#ALARM {+@eta} {drop out of hyperspace}}

One more request.. Is there a way to set it up so that it works on seconds? Sometimes you're only like 50 seconds out.. So the eta is just..

ETA: 12s or something. How would I adjust the trigger to account for either?

Just make a second trigger.
#TR {ETA:%s(%d)s} {#ALA +%eval(%1) {drop out of hyperspace}}

You probably don't even need the %eval for this one.
