When my MUD ticks, it shows the text this way:
hp: 416 (416) sp: 659 (1341)

But, when I'm in a party with other players, their ticks show like this:
Vladd [party]: hp: 416 (416) sp: 840 (1341)

Problem is that I can't set the pattern of a trigger to the "hp: 416 (416) sp: 659 (1341)" format, cause it will also trigger off of the other player's ticks while in party.

Is there any way to make it ONLY trigger off of "hp: 416 (416) sp: 659 (1341)" WITHOUT any text before it? Thanks for your time.

You are looking to pattern match the following concepts:

Pattern Matching:
^ force pattern to match starting at the beginning of the line
$ force pattern to match ending at the end of the line

#TRIGGER {^hp: (%d) ~((%d)~) sp: (%d) ~((%d)~)} {pattern}

The following won't match as "hp: .." doesn't start at the beginning of the line:

Vladd [party]: hp: 416 (416) sp: 840 (1341)
