Show an example of one of these triggers causing the extra line.

here my TRIGGER:
HP~: (%n)/(%n) SP~: (%n)/(%n) W~: (%n)/(%n)~((%n)~) L~: (%n)~% P~: (%n)/(%n)~% A: (%n) T~: (%w) G~: (%n)
heres the SCRIPT:
@currenthp = %1
@water = %5
%if( %5<10, wateralarm)
#MATH gxptotal @gxptotal+%13
#IF (%1 = %2) {
#T- hpalarm
#WA 500
#T- hpmodeset
}
%if( %11<2, lmp)
heres the MUD OUTPUT:
Rich Dwarf hit you hard.
> > HP: 556/624 SP: 154/238 W: 153/401(51) L: 20% P: 2/72% A: 20 T: goner G: 146
Rich Dwarf gurgles in his own blood as he dies.
(notice the 2 empty lines under the hpbar, if i disable these triggers, there are none)

This is caused by using %if instead of #IF.

Just out of curiosity...
Would anyone care to explain why %if returns a blank line? Is this something that just occurs with %if, or is this something one runs into on different functions as well?

Well, %if is a function and it always returns a value. In this case, when the condition is true, it returns wateralarm. When the condition is false, since no false-value is specified, it returns the default value, a zero-length string.
These are just returned values... since they are on a line by themselves, they are essentially evaluated. So the wateralarm alias is called if the condition is true and the zero-length string otherwise. But when a zero length string is executed, that's just like pressing enter without anything in the command-line.
