So I have built a trigger to capture characters in a room based on the Aardwolf {roomchars} {/roomchars} Tags. The trigger is based off the Inventory Loop Pattern example from the MultiState Trigger help doc. Problem is it always adds {/roomchars} to the end of RoomCharacters So I get...

{/roomchars}

I've played with No Trig and Priorities but can't seem to nail is down. What do I need to do to not capture the last line?

Thank you,
Tanuki

<value>#VAR RoomCharacters ""

<trigger type="Loop Lines" param="100">

<value>#ADDITEM RoomCharacters $Chars
#TEMP {^~{/roomchars~}$} {#STATE RoomChars 0; #GAG}</value>
<arglist>$Chars</arglist>
</trigger>
</trigger>

Don't worry so much about the fact that it got captured.
That's a trivial concern in the long run.
Instead, work out a clean-up step to strip it out.

From what I am seeing.... a small change would fix this.
1. Make the temp trigger a full trigger, and toggle its enabled status with #T+ #T-.
2. Make the new trigger have a lower priority number, so it will fire before the other trigger, and check the 'stop further processing' option, this will prevent other triggers from firing on the same line.
That should prevent it from being captured in the first place.
