Ok, let me first state how i finnaly set up my stat bar..

Trigger i use to update first set of variables (@hp, @m, @mv, @xp)
#TRIGGER {<(%d)hp (%d)m (%d)mv (%d)xp>} {#VA HP %1; #VA M %2; #VA MV %3; #VA XP %4;} Stats

Variables:
@hp, @maxhp, @m, @maxm, @mv, @maxmv, @xp

Stat bar customization string:
Hitpoints: %ansi(high, blue)@hp / @maxhp %ansi(black) Mana: %ansi(high, blue)@m / @maxm %ansi(black) Move: %ansi(high, blue)@mv / @maxmv %ansi(black) Total of %ansi(high, blue)@xp %ansi(black)exp to next lvl.

In the end it all look sorta like this right after i lvl, or change my gear
Hitpoints: 384/367 Mana: 255/236 Move: 331/320 Total of 1160 exp to next lvl.
(all numeralls are in a easy to se high blue on the grey status bar, with black txt)

So what i need help with is a sure fire way to autoupdate my second set of variables when i lvl..
(@maxhp, @maxm, @maxmv)
So that they never drop below the value of the autoupdating first set... shouldent be to hard to do, but ive been at this problem from diffrent angles to long to se the obvious so here i am asking for help :D

First off put some tildes (~) in fron ot thoes greater then (<) and less then (>) symbols. The tildes will never cause problems but the other might.

Next see if your mud supports a customizable prompt. If it does it is preferable to capture maxes in the prompt along with everything else. Else you will have to extract them from some other command. In order to do that you have to know what if anything is displayed when you level, what the commands is, and what line(s) contain the information you want. Since you have supplied none of those pieces of information the best I can do is the advice above.

Ok this is the look of the finished output (just use it if you want, works fine for me)

#CLASS {Stats}
#VAR HP {}
#VAR MAXHP {}
#VAR M {}
#VAR MAXM {245}
#VAR MV {}
#VAR MAXMV {}
#TRIGGER {(%d)hp (%d)Mhp (%d)m (%d)Mm (%d)mv (%d)Mmv (%d)xp} {#VA HP %1;#VA MAXHP %2;#VA M %3;#VA MAXM %4;#VA MV %5;#VA MAXMV %6;#VA XP %7;}
#STAT {Hitpoints: %ansi(high, blue)@hp / @maxhp %ansi(black) Mana: %ansi(high, blue)@m / @maxm %ansi(black) Move: %ansi(high, blue)@mv / @maxmv %ansi(black) Total of %ansi(high, blue)@xp %ansi(black)exp to next lvl.}
#CLASS 0
