Um Dag, if you just want an alias or macro that places one random jab and one random swing, why don't you just put all jab commands into one string list, swings into a second one, and make an alias that picks two random items from that list?

Hi, I know this is probably a really basic question but I'm having a lot of troubles with it. I recently started a monk character and I'm having problems performing my katas. I have the kata's setup right and my targetting system is fine but I can't figure out why the alias for performing the kata on a target won't work! I use MUSH by the way.

my alias is zz and it is supposed to KATA PERFORM @TARGET PVM1 PVM2 where pvm1 and 2 are the kata's I've made. When I hit zz the output on the window is kata perform rat (i targetted rat) on one line then the next line is pvm1 pvm2. Then I get the kata syntax.

Why is it coming out in two different lines and why won't it work? Please help!

This probably belongs in the Mushclient questions thread. But it looks like your target includes a newline. Fix up your targetting alias to use regex (if it's not) and use ^ and $ to anchor the line.

I'm not sure how to use regex or even what it is....how would I set up my targeting alias to not put a newline? right not it's just

ta * is the alias and %1 is in the command

Just click the 'convert to regex' button below the pattern box. That should fix it.
