ok i'm a bit of a new zmud user but her is what i'm trying to do

i've got a trigger than does #add number 1
and this trigger works i.e. when the trigger "triggers" 1 is added to the variable number.... nice and simple

but what i want to do is this a trigger that does the following

exa @number.monster

i.e. so if number is 2 it will send the following to the mud
exa 2.monster

the only way i can get this to work atm is use if statements

if {@number=1} {exa 1.monster)
etc etc

so i have to have multi if statements to get this to work

is there a way of it just doing
exa @number.monster

thanks for the help and sorry if this is a vew newbie question

When you refer to the value of a database record variable in zMUD, you use the syntax @Variable.Key - zMUD thinks you mean that when you tell it to do @number.monster. You have a couple of options to make sure zMUD gets it right:

@{number}.monster
%concat(@number,".monster")
