The following is in the trigger for when the output of the mud returns:

You lost your concentration.

It's supppose to check for what was the last command issued. However, it appears that it always returns true for the second "#if" regardless if the first "#if" is true or false. It's not suppose to be nested, but it is suppose to be 2 separate if, then, as there is no else in either of the "#if" commands. Obviously, given how variables works, I also have to be aware that those variables could be changed, if other triggers has use of the same variable name, so that has to be safeguarded against, but that's not the issue in this case. However, with that said, it would be nice to have scope level variables similar to how it's done in either C## or VB (Block [.NET only], Procedure, Module [Class or Standard], File [Assembly/Project], or Global)

It is very likely that implicit concatenation is causing the problem. Switch to explicit concatenation and everything should be fine.
#if (@LastStateCommand = %concat("c 'create water' ",@drnkcont)) {c 'create water' @drnkcont}
