I've used variable expansion of World variables in both the
@variable_name and @!variable_name formats in trigger patterns for a while now.

Is there a similar variable expansion mechanism for lua variables?

Triggers are language-independent, so not directly.

But you could modify the MUSHclient variable whenever you modify the Lua variable. Presumably you know when that is.

Thanks, Nick.

That's what I am doing now, updating both at the same time. I just wanted to make sure that I hadn't missed something in the documentation.
