Another question popped into my mind lol, kind of pertains to this same subject. Is it possible to do 2 ifs in the same trigger? For instance:

if string.lower("%1") == "self" then
world.Send("say Not going to happen")
if string.lower("%1") == "terkal" then
world.Send("say Not going to happen")
else
world.Send("cast %2 %1")
end

What language is this? Lua?

You can do it with elseif, eg.


if string.lower("%1") == "self" then
  Send ("say Not going to happen")
elseif string.lower("%1") == "terkal" then
  Send("say Not going to happen")
else
  Send("cast %2 %1")
end

If you have a lot of them, you could use a table, eg.


not_going_to = {
  self = true,
  terkal = true,
  nick = true,
  twisol = true,
-- add more here
  }

if not_going_to [string.lower ("%1")] then
  Send("say Not going to happen")
else
  Send("cast %2 %1")
end

That indexes into the table with the word converted to lower-case. If it matches you say "not going to happen". If not, you do it.

Yes, Lua. :) And thank you both once again lol. I'm going to also store all of these set ups in an notepad so I can try to assemble these as best I can on my own in the future. I feel bad pestering with miniscule things lol, I do try to figure it out on my own before I post, just to let you know :) Regardless, thanks!
