Not sure what exactly I'm doing wrong here since I've used this before on another MUD for GAGing things and it worked just fine. However this time what I was trying to do was make it so when ever I entered a room and saw a specific MOB I would just auto attack it. Now because the MUD has Mobs that are in several different postitions when you enter the room I broke it down A-Z.

I'd snag and copy the description of them standing there: A bobble headed kid is standing here

create a variable string list and call it EnemyB, add the standing description to the slot and save. Then create a trigger with @EnemyB for the pattern and kill b for the execute.

Works great when I first create it, however. When I find another NPC that uses the same letter thus making me add it to the string list, for instance: A blue bird is flying here

It refuses to execute the command for either just some of them or all of them. I tested it by deleting one of the variables and adding them all at the same time, worked fined. It's only when I go to add new ones AFTER I've saved that first time. Highly confused, anyone else ran into this issue?

Using just one member of the list

#TR {@EnemyB} {kill b}

Should work.

As soon as it becomes more than one item in the list when it expands in the pattern, it makes it near impossible to match.
A quick workaround is adding the list syntax to the pattern:

#TR {{@EnemyB}} {kill b}

Then it knows to only match one of the possible options.

Awesome, the second one fixed it all right up. Thanks!
