Trigger Matching.

I have this line of code to match.


The problem is I have to use this expression to match it and it only matches when more code is sent after the line I am trying to match when I use test trigger.


This line doesn't match it at all.


How can I get it to match that line without requiring more code sent after it or before it. Just match it if that line is sent anywhere in the output.

Like when I test trigger, It doesn't match until something is sent from the mud after it.

Also if you can explain why it isn't matching and why it doesn't match test triggers output that would be awesome.

It sounds like you're just testing it wrong. The "Test Trigger" dialogue in the Game menu does not automatically end the line you put into it, so the next line from the MUD gets attached to the line you entered, and then that finally ends the line. That obviously then won't match your trigger unless the trigger ends with the * wildcard, because of how MUSHclient patterns work. You need to end your test line with either or Ctrl+Enter.

Alright thanks.
