Okay, here is the problem. On my mud I am training spells rather then spending valuable practices on them so I often fail at just about every spell and have triggers to keep my spells up. However, like I said I often fail and for every spell I fail at sends the same message "You lost your concentration" Is there a way that I could make it do the last spell I casted?

I use more then one client at times so i have my spells aliased to the mud so for instance I have: cast 'bless' aliased as bless.

So if I type and this shows:
Types: bless
Shows: You lost your concentration.
OR
Types: armor
Shows: You lost your concentration.
How can I trigger it to resend the last command so I can be lazy and not type anything?

I figure this is a pretty common question, however, I have not the time to look through the 300 or more help forums on here. So thanks in advance q:

#ALIAS cast {~cast %-1;#VAR AmCasting {%-1}}
#TRIGGER {^You lost your concentration.} {cast @amcasting}

Explanation found in one of the 300 or more help forums on here.

ok.. that sort of helps.. cept it doesnt work for triggers.. for example

The aura of your deitie's power vanishes.
<this text triggers cast 'holy aura'>
You lost your concentration.

nothing else afterwards.. it only works if i manually enter the command and fail.. it seems as if the command you gave me disregards all triggers

Yes because the variable is set by the alias. Just have the trigger call the alias:
#TRIGGER {The aura of your deitie's power vanishes.} {cast 'holy aura'}

Also, note that because of the pattern it has, the trigger that fires when you loose your concentration matches only when this text comes at the start of a line.
