i want to make a trigger that does this
train hp 5
when i have more exp than 300000

its a vampirewars mud and the line look like this
[703595 exp] <12740hp 12755m 12735mv 81bl>

ive come this far
#ALIAS hola {say @exps;#TI of;#TS {5};#TI on [turnitof];#T- test} "test"
#TRIGGER {[%1 exp} {#VAR exps %1} "test"

i get this [703595

Hello Mikael,
I think "~[" should work. So instead of:
#TRIGGER {[%1 exp} {#VAR exps %1} "test"
You would:
#TRIGGER {~[%1 exp} {#VAR exps %1} "test"

This is needed because [] is special symbols. So the ~ character tells zMUD to handle it as characters.

By the way. I think a trigger something like this might work to train when the exp is more than 300000:

#TRIGGER {~[(%d) exp} {#if (%1>300000) {train hp 5}}

The trigger should be set to trigger on prompts if your prompts don't have a newline automaticully added to them. Like some muds use this: <>[newline] which doesnt need the 'prompt' triggering.

I'm not sure if you can use '%1' as a pattern like you did in your trigger. '%d' that I use above tells zMUD to scan for digits. However to capture the number the '%d' has to be enclosed by paranthesis like '(%d)'. As that one is the first pattern-code in the trigger the variable '%1' is assigned that number.
