| Hi, I am trying to get the following trigger to work:
** You gain a practice point from *. **
Send to: Notepad(append) -> Prac from %3
The first and last two ** are sent by the mud, and the third * is the variable. Ive tried using reg expression like this:
^\*\* You gain a practice point from *. \*\*$
Send to: Notepad(append) -> Prac from %1
But it doesnt seem to work... What am I missing? | | Top |

| When using regexps, you have other things meaning special things as well (* are no longer wildcards, instead a quantifier, read the regexp help)
try this:
^\* \* You gain a practice point from (.*?)\. \* \*$
Thats assuming theres spaces between the asterisks and such.
And youll use %1 to return the value. |

| Trigger: ** You gain a practice point from *. **
and the * you want is %# where # is the number in numerical order which the * appears. For example.
You lose * points and your opponent loses * points.
%1 would be your points lost and %2 would be your opponents. Hope that clears it up for ya.

| Then youll use:
^\*\* You gain a practice point from (.*?)\. \*\*$
with %1 being the thing.
And:
^You lose (.*?) points and your opponent loses (.*?) points\.$
This wont match on singular points (unless they keep the s), you might want to try this instead:
^You lose (.*?) points? and your opponent loses (.*?) points?\.$
or if you want to get really picky and only match on digits, you could do this:
^You lose (\d+) points and your opponent loses (\d+) points\.$
And once again, that wont match if they drop the 's'. |

| Thanks Flannel, that worked.
Jlzink, I used to have that as my old trigger, but the latest version of mushclient doesnt allow it anymore. | | Top |
