I'm having trouble with my prompt triggers firing twice, and the only thing I can think of is that there are duplicates located somewhere in the settings.

#TR {&{hp}h, &{mn}m, &{ed}e, &{wp}w (%w)~-} {} "" {prompt}
or
#TR {%dh, %dm} {} "" {prompt}

show up a lot in my mass of triggers, but each one has a unique value so I wouldn't expect anything to happen more than once.

This trigger is what I'm having the most trouble with is:
#TR {&{hp}h, &{mn}m, &{ed}e, &{wp}w (%w)~-} {#IF (@hp<2700) {action}} "" {prompt}
it will send action to the MUD twice, even though that specific value for the trigger is only given once (to my knowledge).

I'm wondering if there is a way to search for multiple trigger values, I have tried exporting everything to a text file and searching through that but I haven't had any luck.

Try this:
#TR {&{hp}h, &{mn}m, &{ed}e, &{wp}w (%w)~-} {#IF (@hp<2700) {action}} "" {nocr|prompt}

without the nocr (no carriage return) your trigger is firing once on the prompt and again when the cr is received at the end of the command you enter. This can also be changed under the "options" tab, uncheck the Newline option.

Yes, that trigger will fire twice. It has Trigger on Newline enabled by default and you've added Trigger on Prompt by using 'prompt' in the options field. Thus, the trigger will fire when the pattern is received as a prompt and then fire again whenever the next newline is received. To prevent this, just add 'nocr' to the options field or disable the Trigger on Newline option in the settings editor.
#TR {&{hp}h, &{mn}m, &{ed}e, &{wp}w (%w)~-} {#IF (@hp<2700) {action}} "" {prompt|nocr}
