Trigger help
 
i need some help making this trigger. what i want it to do is so when someone follows me, i group them. i got that part down. now, after i group them, i have the trigger do last %1, so i get information about their character. when do do a last <character>, you get this information.

<name> the <race> is a 46th level <class> and was last logged in on Wed Nov 14 00:12:16 2001.

that then would start a new trigger. what i want to do is have it grouptell Please welcome <name>, who is a level <level> <race> <class>, to the group. an example would be Please welcome Grar, who is a level 20 Troll Warrior, to the group. But the level is followed by letters, as in 22nd, or 46th. how can i get just the level number, or even the entire thing, letters and all. i tried both (%d) and (%w), and neither worked. please help me out. im using zmud 3.61. thanx

#trig {(%w) the (%w) is a (*) level (%w) and was last logged in} {grouptell Please welcome %1, who is a level %replace(%replace(%replace(%replace(%3, "nd", ""), "th", ""), "st", ""), "rd", "") %2 %4}

Not sure %replace is valid in 3.61.

The easy way would be to accept the MUD's formatting.

#TR {^(%w) the (%w) is a (%a) level (%w)} {grouptell Please welcome %1~, who is a %3 level %2 %4}

This should give you:
Please welcome Grar, who is a 20th level Troll Warrior

Alternatively, you might try:
#TR {^(%w) the (%w) is a (%d)%w level (%w)} {grouptell Please welcome %1~, who is a level %3 %2 %4}

NOTE: There is no space between the (%d) and the %w
