Hey guys!
how do i create a trigger that will allow me to take the current exits in a room and move through them randomly.

example of room description is below.
[Path to Hell.]

A small roadway bordered by dying hedges bisects the wide path of Death Mountain at a right angle, heading east to west. A thick, half broken sign stands just off to the side of a dirt path. A wooden sign and a broken lantern are here.

This area is illuminated.
You see the 1st Hydra.
Obvious paths: north east southeast south west.

Thanks for any help you guys can throw my way.

As Always I Am Grateful,
Thalir.

#TRIGGER {Obvious paths: (*).} {#EXEC %item(%replace("%1", " ", "|"), %random(1, %numitems(%replace("%1", " ", "|"))))}

WOW! your amazing, thank you so much it works like a charm.
One more quick question if you dont mind me asking.
Where would i use the #wait 4000 if i wanted to hold back on the execution of the trigger for a few seconds.
would it be directly after #exec or infront of , %random.

It would be in front of #EXEC, but the correct way would be to use an alarm:
#TRIGGER {Obvious paths: (*).} {#ALARM {+4} {#EXEC %item(%replace("%1", " ", "|"), %random(1, %numitems(%replace("%1", " ", "|"))))}}
