Currently the trigger is triggered off of a quest completion output. Now most everything in it works but the variables that read out a Variable plus ascii/ansi commands.

Example of one of the problems:

#VAR col_prac {"@MP@mractice @MS@messions"}

now it reads out fine bu it won't strip the "" from the output. How do you make it strip that and still use the ansi/ascii codes?

you mean you want the string not to undergo variable expansion?

#var col_prac(~@MP~@mractice ~@MS~@messions}

should do it, just prefix each character with tilde. or, if this is something your going to be using alot, you can change the special character for variables from @ to something else, or disable it.
