Shattered Kingdoms

I was reading a log on the logs site, and macbeth posted a pk log. Reading through, I noticed he had several triggers set up. As follows

XXXX starts to concentrate.
>>>XXXX is casting<<<<


XXX's bash slams into YYYY and sends them sprawling!
>>>YYYY is bashed<<<

I have tried everything to replicate this, and just cant figure it out. What I have now, is

#TRIGGER{starts to concentrate}
#ECHO CASTING!!!

Problem with this is.. a) I can not use >>> or <<< as symbols, syntax error. b) I cant figure out how to make it point, %1 and %t do not work. c) I cant make it just red text on my black background. I have to go into my color prefrences and change system output color, which changes several other things. I tried PM'ing the creater of the log, and have gotten no response. Might anyone help me with this?

What client are you using, first of all?

It's amazing what fiddly little things can make a trigger trip up. For things like '<' that cause a syntax error, put a ~ right in front of it.

From a quick look, these should work for you:

Casting:
#TRIGGER {(*) starts to concentrate} {#ECHO >>>%1 is casting!!!!~<~<~<}

Bashing:
#TRIGGER {*'s bash slams into (*) and sends * sprawling} {#ECHO >>>>%1 is bashed!~<~<~<~<}

Thank you very much!
