Hi again

I've got another problem :)

I want to capture the names of all the other players into variables.

So far I have an alias and a trigger.

#al {who} {#t+ system|wholist;~who}
#tr {There are %d people playing.} {#t- system|wholist}

and the mud text I want to trigger on is:

Someone the whatever is playing
Someone the whatever is playing
Someone the whatever is playing
Someone the whatever is playing
Someone the whatever is playing
There are 5 people playing.

So what I want to do is put all the names into @who1, @who2 etc but I don't know how to write a trigger that'll capture info from multiple lines.

Anyone help?

Oops, forgot to say its only the first name I need, not what they are.

instead of @who1, @who2 etc. a string list would probably be better. there's lots of fancy stuff you can do with a string list.

#class {system|who} {disable}
#tr {^(%w)} {#additem whoplaying %1}
#class 0

Hi Emit

Thanks, this was just what I was looking for. I can probably rewrite most of my scripts now.

Thanks again.

...

I think it will be a string list of connected players...

When you get tired of seeing "There" as the last name in your list, change Emit's trigger to
#tr {^(%w) the} {#additem whoplaying %1}
