So, I'm trying to create a debating echo trigger script. I'm a complete noob when it comes to MUSH scripting, and here's what I managed to do.
  bold="y"
  enabled="y"
  group="Debating"
  lines_to_match="2"
  match="After a dramatic pause\\, (.*?) exposes your argument as nothing more than a baseless form of emotional
blackmail\\.$
  multi_line="y"
  regexp="y"
  send_to="12"
  sequence="100"
  >
 ÂColourNote ("limegreen","","Defended with CAUTIOUS. Debate with PONTIFICATION")
 Â
For some reason I keep getting two echoes, so I think the trigger is firing twice. Help please?
CODE
  enabled="y"
  group="Debating"
  lines_to_match="2"
  match="After a dramatic pause\\, (.*?) exposes your argument as nothing more than a baseless form of emotional
blackmail\\.$
  multi_line="y"
  regexp="y"
  send_to="12"
  sequence="100"

Check that you don't have two instances of the trigger running?
Also, double-check that "keep evaluating" is off. If you're just using the script above, it is - and that should prevent the earlier problem, too.
As it's set to non-greedy the (.*?) shouldn't be a problem.
It also might be a problem with matching double lines. A moment while I work out how it goes.
EDIT: Try:
match = "After a dramatic pause\\, (.*?) exposes your argument as nothing more than a baseless form of emotional(\\s*?)\\n(\\s*?)blackmail\\.$\\z"

Only one trigger. Keep evaluating is off. Your line doesn't trigger it at all.

Rika, you're using my combat system, which means you should have wrapwidth 0 on, which means you shouldn't need to make multiline triggers for messages that appear on a single line, which means you're doing it wrong.
