I don't know if I'm being an utter newb or what but I've looked over the forums and couldn't figure this out.

What I'm trying to do is a basic sequence trigger.

Basically, if "You chose the wrong number" appears, the trigger moves to the next number.

Essentially:
Choosenumber 1
If ""You chose the wrong number" appears
it sends
choosenumber 2
then 3, 4 and so on. Any ideas?

This trigger would do that:


<triggers>
  <trigger
   enabled="y"
   match="You chose the wrong number"
   send_to="12"
   sequence="100"
  >
  <send>

nextnumber = nextnumber or 1  -- initialize first time
 
nextnumber = nextnumber + 1  -- next one

Send ("choosenumber " .. nextnumber)

</send>
  </trigger>
</triggers>


You might want to make an alias that sets nextnumber back to one if you have to do it a second time.
