A question: WHY IF COMMAND INSTEAD OF DOING NOTHING FIRES EVEN THOUGH IT HAS VALUE 0 OR VALUE WHICH IS NOT DEFINED?
I have made following script:
#CLASS Battlescripts
#ALIAS kelpon {#T+ Battlescripts|Kelplock}
#ALIAS kelpoff {#T- Battlescripts|Kelplock}
#CLASS O
#CLASS Battlescripts|Kelplock
#ALIAS dk {envd;ctrl1}
#ALIAS envd {envenom dirk with}
#ALIAS kelplock {envd cyanide;envd ciguatoxin;envd iodine;envd bromine;envd botulinum;envd mercury;envd ether;envd arsenic;envd ciguatoxin;envd aconite}
#ALIAS ctrl1 {conjure illusion Khunkao pricks you twice in succesion with his dirk. Hmmmm. Why must everything be so difficult to figure out? Your body stiffens rapidly with paralysis.}
#ALIAS ctrl2 {conjure illusion Khunkao pricks you twice in succesion with his dirk. Terror descends upon you and your head swims - you must find shelter Hmmmm. Why must everything be so difficult to figure out?}
#ALIAS ctrl3 {conjure illusion A small black cobra opens its mouth wide and strikes you in the leg. You are confused as to the effects of the toxin.}
#ALIAS ctrl4 {conjure illusion Dart streaks from out of nowhere and slams into you. You are confused as to the effects of the toxin.}
#ALIAS ctrl5 {conjure illusion Khunkao pricks you twice in succesion with his dirk. Your limbs grow heavy and you groan feebly as weakness overcomes your body. You stumble and it becomes very difficult to concentrate on your coordination.}
#ALIAS ctrl6 {conjure illusion You are: Afflicted by horrible asthma. Afflicted with clumsiness.}
#ALIAS ctrl7 {conjure illusion Khunkao pricks you twice in succesion with his dirk. Your mind swims as dizziness overtakes you. A numbness seizes you, and your left arm goes limp.}
#ALIAS ctrl8 {conjure illusion Khunkao pricks you twice in succesion with his dirk. Your mind swims as dizziness overtakes you. A prickly, stinging sensation spreads through your body.}
#ALIAS ctrl9 {conjure illusion Khunkao pricks you twice in succesion with his dirk. You feel suddenly as if food is the most repulsive thing you can imagine. You watch, in horror, as your right arm shrivels up.}
#ALIAS ctrl10 {conjure illusion Khunkao pricks you twice in succesion with his dirk. Blood begins to slowly drip from your nose. Your ability to digest elixirs seems off for some reason}
#ALIAS ctrl11 {conjure illusion Khunkao pricks you twice in succesion with his dirk. A numbness seizes you, and your left arm goes limp. A numbness seizes you, and your left leg goes limp.}
#ALIAS ctrl12 {conjure illusion Khunkao pricks you twice in succesion with his dirk. A numbness seizes you, and your left leg goes limp. A numbness seizes you, and your right leg goes limp.}
#VAR Battlescripts/Kelplock/mental 0
#VAR Battlescripts/Kelplock/balance 1
#VAR Battlescripts/Kelplock/aura 0
#VAR Battlescripts/Kelplock/shield 0
#TRIGGER {You recovered balance} {#IF (@balancee 1) {dstb};#IF (@aura 1) {fla};#IF (@shield 1) {touch hammer &tar}}
#TRIGGER {you suddenly percieve the vague outline of an aura} {#VAR Battlescripts/Kelplock/aura 1;#VAR balance 0}
#TRIGGER {^You raze} {#VAR Battlescripts/Kelplock/aura 0;#VAR balance 1}
#TRIGGER {^A shimmering translucent shield forms around} {#VAR Battlescripts/Kelplock/shield 1;#VAR balance 0}
#TRIGGER {^You touch your tattoo and a massive, ethereal hammer rises up and shatters} {#VAR Battlescripts/Kelplock/shield 0;#VAR balance 1}
#TRIGGER {You have regained your mental equilibrium} {#IF (@mental 1) {dstb;#WAIT 200;ctrl5;#ADD Battlescripts/Kelplock/mental 1};#IF (@mental 2) {#WAIT 200;ctrl6;#ADD Battlescripts/Kelplock/mental 1};#IF (@mental 3) {#VAR Battlescripts/Kelplock/mental 0}}
#CLASS 0

The problem is just the last trigger. It goes normaly until it gets mental to 3, then sets it to 0 and repeats last illusion infinately.
Any suggestions would be nice.

This #case works. I put my original idea at the bottom cause it don't work. If someone can tell me with THAT one what i did wrong I'd appreciate it.

I'm just taking a wild guess here, but it might be the #WAITs messing you up. #WAIT in triggers is a really bad idea.

I hate to dissapoint you guys, but ALARM doesn't work either. It still fires all illusions at once.

500ms work well enough?

trigger {You have regained your mental equilibrium} {
#CASE @mental {
#Echo 1A
#ALARM metal +0.5 {#Echo 1B;#ADD mental 1}
} {
#ALARM metal +0.5 {#Echo 2A;#ADD mental 1}
} {
#ALARM metal +0.5 {#Echo 1B;#ADD mental 1}
}
}

The trigger you had would fire all three as you increment mental and the next if check will prove true.
#TRIGGER {You have regained your mental equilibrium} {#IF (@mental 1) {dstb;#WAIT 200;ctrl5;#ADD Battlescripts/Kelplock/mental 1};#IF (@mental 2) {#WAIT 200;ctrl6;#ADD Battlescripts/Kelplock/mental 1};#IF (@mental 3) {#VAR Battlescripts/Kelplock/mental 0}}
Once mental hits 0 it gets stuck unless you change mental somewhere else.

The script as you've posted it has no operators in the actual expression being evaluated.

*points to his post and states again, "My #CASE example works. At least it does for me."
Just take out the #waits and put in alarms
