The mud I play one can cast spells yet it looks like this when casting a spell:

just do a simple #say or #echo it looks like...

#SAY would probably work best.

#TRIGGER {Spell message here} {#SAY Spell here}

Or you could take it a step further and do:

#VAR spelldb {qcandusah yaae=create food|lerpeoskf deedka=create spring|etc...}

#TRIGGER {You utter the words, '({@spelldb})'} {#SUB {You utter the words, '%db(@spelldb, %1)'}}

Then, instead of the normal phrase, it'll say:

You utter the words, 'create food'

Anyway, just a couple solutions...

Edited to correct the trigger pattern. Also corrected the trigger pattern, as it was wrong...

I personally would go for

#trigger {(You utter the words '({@spelldb})')} {#sub {%concat(%1," ",%db(@spelldb,%2)}

Which will give you the result:

You chant the words 'aakjgja gakgjaskg' Create Food

or whatever.

Also, charneus' pattern above won't work - it needs {} inside the (), like mine.

You could also do it as a #SUB and then you'd be replacing the magical language with the plain words on your screen only. Instead of just tacking them onto the end like Fang did ;)

Thanks Fang. I was posting from my phone and it was late at night, ugh. Didn't have a real chance to look over it before posting it.

Ralgith, that's exactly what mine does. :p
