I need some help with this trigger ive been working on, i have it set up to where a tick will go every 60 secs, and when the screen reads <Lifeforce (100)its supposed to activate an alias but it doesnt seem to go when this is read. Could someone please help me out a bit?

You left out a lot of details that are needed to provide a meaningful answer. My best guess is that <Lifeforce (100) is part of your prompt, and you didn't change the options from Trigger on Newline to Trigger on Prompt. My second guess is that you didn't precede the special characters in your trigger pattern with ~. The special characters I'm talking about are <, (, and ).

It's entirely possible that there's something else wrong with either the trigger or the alias, but without knowing what they are there's no way to tell. I haven't the slightest idea how any of this relates to the tick or why you would think it does.

I did forget to precede the special characters with ~, thank you, im sorta new at this, and the tick is because there is not an in-game tick, so when the tick goes off the prompt is renewed.(If that makes any sense).
By the way how do i keep a trigger like this one from looping?

How is it looping? A trigger will only cause a loop if it produces output that matches the pattern of the trigger again. If this is the case, then uncheck the Trigger on Trigger option for that trigger.

Im so sorry, but it still keeps looping. Maybe this will help find an answer.
I have the trigger ~<Lifeforce ~(100~)
when it is triggered it runs an alias named fight(the commands in fight are: wake,d,e,e,e,e,e,n,u,s,w,u,e,kill fighter).
Even though i did uncheck the trigger on trigger box it still loops.

I kind of understand what you are trying to do, which you should have explained from the start. What you need to do in this case is first give the trigger an ID or put it in its own class. You then use the #T- command to disable the trigger (works with both: a class name or an ID) when it fires. Just put the commands along with the other commands of the trigger. Then you need to figure out when to use #T+ to enable this trigger again. I'm guessing that it will probably be enabled by another trigger that fires either when you kill the mob or when you flee.

Hey I found this other trigger on the forums, which seems might work. I modified it to what i need, but it still doesnt seem to work can someone please tell me whats wrong with it?

#CLASS fight {disable}
#ALARM *5 {train}
#TR {combat!} {#T- kill fighter;s;w;d;e;n;d;s;w;w;w;w;w;u;sleep}
#CLASS 0
#ALIAS {dofight} {sleep;#TEMP {~<Lifeforce ~(100~)} {wake;d;e;e;e;e;e;n;u;s;w;u;e;kill fighter;#T+ kill fighter}}

Thank you!

The name of the class or ID you use has to be only one word. (This might not necessarily be true but it avoids lots of problems).
