Trigger help
|
Is there anyway for zmud to destinguish spaces that may be at the end of a line?
In the mud I play, if a snake bites you, you will get a bite message on one line and an affliction message on the next. In order to illusion a bite, someone must put spaces at the end of the bite message in order for word wrap to take affect and get the affliction message on the next line. What I want to do is make a trigger where the affliction is triggered but it eveluates the preceeding line where the bite message is to check if there's spaces at the end of that line. If it finds spaces it will ignore the bite, if there's no spaces it will cure it properly.
A typical bite message looks like this:
Joey sinks his fangs into you.
Your body freezes in paralysis.
Any help would be appreciated

Make two triggers on that line. First trigger will be for the real affect and will be multiline:
#trigger {^Ow, the dang thing bit me!$I feel dizzy.$} {Your code here to deal with the affliction}
The second trigger will only be a single-line trigger on just the bite message EXCEPT that at the end it has the %s wildcard:
#trigger {^Ow, the dang thing bit me!%s} {#say illusion!}

You can also perhaps change your screen width in the mud and set it to something
odd so you can not be spoofed as easily. ie width 74
