you guys are awesome with this stuff and i'm not entirely sure how to do a conditional trigger.

This is the mud output.

A Vampire attempts to flee.
A Vampire leaves south.

I would like to set up a condition that when X attempts to flee and successfully leaves a direction that it enters X into #var fleetarget and then the direction in #var fleedirection

so that i can than alias for
charge X direction

Now I want this for a specific set of races and i can create multiple triggers for each race or is there a way to create a set of races to choose from? IE Drow, Lich, Vampire, Etc

Thanks in advance. Atm i just have a basic trig for each race, but i want this to autofill only when someone attempts to flee instead of the way i have it now which is when ever someone just leaves room.

Thanks agian

Don't even need to use variables, to be honest, unless you're using them for a specific purpose. I'll give you both ways, though.

To automate it from a trigger:

Awesome thanks, i chose alias cuz i don't want to always chase as it may lead me into places i don't want to go, so i want the option to chase by hitting alias.

I know you already know better, but to remind everyone yet again:

If you are using a beta version, post in the beta forums.
If you are using a public version, post in the general forums.

Even in simple situations that don't seem to be in a beta-feature area, bugfixes and additions can introduce changes to how this works. Ergo, someone using a public version might not be able to produce the results you're seeing or the solutions they give you might work differently.

Also, if you are really using v3.08, then you must upgrade to 3.14. Older Beta versions are not supported. Part of the Beta agreement is that you keep up-to-date with the latest beta version. If you don't want to update, then you should stick with the current Public version (2.37).

Also, a note to forum helpers: Unless there is a compelling reason to use a Regular Expression, please answer trigger questions using the regular zScript trigger syntax. Especially when helping new players. This will become even more important when the new Trigger Pattern Wizard is released soon since it only supports the zScript syntax.

The purpose of the zScript pattern syntax is to make triggers and patterns easier for new players so that they are less intimidated by clients. Regular Expressions are notoriously intimidating to many people. Just using the term "Regular Expression" can scare people away.

The zScript version of the above suggestion would be:
