Is there any easy way to make trigger A fire before trigger B when they are set to fire on the same line?

You might be able to delay it by a single line but that might be sub-optimal. I will think about it and if I come up with anything better ill post back...

#TRIGGER {^whatever$}
#TRIGGER {^whatever$*$}

If you want to ensure two things happen in a given order, it's probably best to use one trigger and a #PRIORITY command. #PRIORITY works effectively within a code block, but I've no clue if it spans across triggers (I'm really doubting it does, though), and wrapping your first effect in #PRIORITY will guarantee it gets processed and completed before the second effect is worked on.

if both fire off of the same line why not just have
#trigger {line} {A;B}
where A is an alias of what happens in trigger A and B is an alias what happens in B
zmud will send alias A and then B, but won't over lap on one another.
at least not that I have seen.
or am i misunderstanding the question?

You can also use the 'Move Up' and 'Move Down' buttons, in the Settings Editor, to control this. As with all settings, make sure that sorting is not active when trying to control the specific order.
