debug window shows it catching and firing only on zim whys that?? I'm pretty sure its my perl regular expression that is at fault here. Any help please??

edit::

Not to worried about the persons title if there is a way to get just the players level and class in the brackets and there players name would be cool thanks

Is your trigger pattern .* and nothing else? Also, check to see so there are no spaces..

The regex to capture the line would be something like: ^\[(\d+)\s(\w+)\] (\w+)

If you're going to do a .* trigger, you might as well use a "Lua function" trigger and put in "return true" in the pattern. I'd advice against that though, unless you switch it off or use a gate.

I have a trigger that is set to enable the above trigger witch is showing in the debug that it is firing.


edit
i tried your sting didn't work.

Can you post a screenshot with your triggers on it? I'll give it a look and see how it can be captured properly.
You can also make a replay and post it, and I'll look at it.

You need to set the first trigger to stay open until it hits the end. On the right hand, it's the "fire length". Set this to 100 or something on the gate trigger, and in the closing trigger use setTriggerStayOpen("nameOfGateTrigger",0) to make sure it won't fire further than that.
