trigger sends command twice

hi,

i'm trying to create a trigger when someone sends me a tell, i reply to it automessage. somehow it sends my reply twice. option is set to World.

any thoughts?

Show please?

mud aardwolf. on the tech channel i recieved no help. on player only told, that he has the same problem and hasn't found a solution to fix it

<triggers>
<trigger
lines_to_match="3"
match="^(.+)tells you \'(.+)\'$"
omit_from_log="y"
regexp="y"
sequence="100"
>
<send>reply I think i'm AFK at the moment.</send>
</trigger>
</triggers>

That trigger won't reply twice. Someone else had a similar issue recently and it turned out they had two such triggers. So each one replies.

Try turning on Game menu -> Trace, and then watch what happens. That tells you about each matching trigger.

don't have 2 triggers. with trace:

TRACE: Matched trigger "^{tell}(?<msg>.*)"
TRACE: Executing trigger script "chats"
You tell Melviant 'I think i'm AFK at the moment.'

and this is done twice. maybe it has something to do with aardwolf client mod?

What script "chats"?



What is done twice? Can you post the whole thing please?

Are you copying/pasting? Or retyping?

Change your trigger pattern to


This is an unfortunate, though in this case solvable, side effect of only having partial line substitution capability in mushclient and the apparent inability to have keep_evaluating="n" halt extra-plugin triggering (has this always been the case? I can't remember).

The very short version of a rather long story here is that the aard_chat_echo.xml plugin triggers on tagged tells and re-displays them sans tags in a way that causes coarsely defined triggers to fire again. This is unintentional, but not easily solved given the above.
