#var list {smelt}
#var Todo {}

You are carrying:

Basically, everytime it see's smelt it should add "smelt" to Todo{} for each of the items

#alias kk
@todo
then remove first from todo list

Ultimatly it will allow me to type kk for every command that I will send, for example:

currently keypad8 = {lastdir=north;north}
#alias door {unlock @lastdir;open @lastdir}
#trigger The door is closed. {todo=door}
#trigger The door is opened. {@lastdir}

that way a spell drops i hit kk.. a doors there i hit kk.... etc etc... I want to be able to use a stringed list into the same method.. Ore for smelting takes up alot of character weight and if i smelt on the fly I can simply streamline it.

This is a fairly easy trigger...

oops, I missed that you want other things added too, but you should be able to take the smelting trigger and modify it to suit the other uses.

Ya I got that far, my problem is
#var list {smelt|brandish|whatever}

#TRIGGER {smelting} {#VAR todo %additem("smelt",@todo)}
to ->
#TRIGGER {smelting} {#VAR todo %additem("@list",@todo)}

then todo becomes
smelt
brandish
whatever
smelt
branish
whatever

per item it saw.. so its dumping the full string list per match into the new string

Am i doing something wrong

basically want to check a predefined string list and if something matches read that into the todo string list once per time its seen..... %pop works like a charm .. if i can just fix the other issue.

Ok, if you're using a trigger for each individual keyword (like smelting) you don't need your "list" :)

There is a much more complicated single trigger that will work also, but I'm not gonna write it unless you have problems with the single triggers :)

reason for the list was so i could read everything into a list and use a master list based on keywords to pick them out so i wouldnt need a single trigger for everything.. i just showed a simple list but items are randomly named on this mud sometimes with the right keyword sometimes not.. so i was going to use this as a way to predefine and streamline :/

Ah, ok. I'm pretty busy today, but I can help with this tomorrow probably.

fresh day fresh mind, been playing with it a little bit more. and i kinda got it somewhat working but it only stores something once or ends up reading the whole string var per instance off the item so lets break it down, this way.

Data to be read: (affects/mobs/inventory whatever shouldnt matter if its set up right)
A peice of rope.
A peice of rope.
A peice of rope.

Db: @db (master file with everything defined as key - what to look for, and a %val what command to send)
%Key: %Val
A peice of rope | hold red
A lock of hair | get hair

String list: @Todo
everything added here using %additem so duplicates can be used

#trigger {*({%db(@db,%1) )})* {todo=%val} <---- 100% sure this is wrong but its the main part of the problem more than likely

#alias doit {%pop(@todo)} - or something

basically looking for something those lines..

i just keep running in circles so any help using this as a better more clear basis would be lovely, I generally can work the commands just fine within the trigger or alias part commands. but triggering off a key or a val in the @db keeps running me to ground
