Is there a way to highlight a single word in a sentence
For example, I play a cleric and would see a line such as
this
"An Ogre's devastating hit nearly slaughters Borixanon!"
I have a setup now where the trigger is *devastating* and
I changed the color sent to the world but it changes the whole line. I would like to just see the word devastating
highlighted. Also is it possible to replace the word
devastating with DEVASTATING


- borixanon

This is very simple.

Just make a trigger that matches on the exact word, eg. devastating (no asterisks) and check "regular expression". Then just that word will be coloured.
