| Alright, all I want to do, is if I get a line of input like this
[OOC: 1] Bob: "Hello"
For it to be a certain color, now the number 1 can change, so I tried simply creating a trigger that was
[OOC *
And then tried changing the color in the 'Change colour and style box' But this doesn't work, I have tried several different triggers for this and can't get it to work. I didn't have regular expression checked or anything like that. It just simply doesn't work. Here is a picture of exactly what I've done. http://oi55.tinypic.com/mhqte.jpg
If someone could just tell me what I need to do to get that to be a solid colored line I would be grateful. There are other text strings I want to color but I figure I can just do the same thing with those that I can do to this one to get it to work. Thank you! | | Top |

[OOC *
That's not going to work is it?
Your line has:
Quote:
[OOC: 1
That is: [OOCcolon and you are trying to match [OOCspace.
In other words, match on:

| That works for me. I just imported the trigger you pasted and used Simulate() to emulate incoming MUD text (using "[OOC: 1] Bob: "Hello""). Worked perfectly fine.
Do you have any other triggers that might match the same thing? Make sure it has "Keep evaluating" checked or it'll stop all other triggers from running. |

| | Are triggers enabled at all? There's a checkbox below the list of triggers that lets you enable/disable triggers. |

Please help us by advising the version of MUSHclient you are using. Use the Help menu -> About MUSHclient.
|
Can you post some actual MUD output please? Copy and paste.
Sometimes when people retype stuff they miss a space or something. |
