How2: IGNORE not GAG
 
version 4.62 VME Valheru.com

PATTERN 1: A red eyed bug is dead!

PATTERN 2: Patricia is dead!

The difference between these two is that pattern 1 is a mob, and pattern 2 is a real person.
Nr.1 has 'A' in front of it and two describing names before the actual foo name (the descriptions on a mob can vary from <1> red bug, <2>red eyed bug, <3>red eyed wild bug)

I want to count the number of foo's killed in battle and have the counter ignore the part that describes the foo and also ignore if it's a real person and not a mob.

Allready have the #ADD fookilled 1 counter.

whell pattern matching is what you would be researching in the help fils, but here is an example based on the above info:

#trigger {^A * is dead~!} {#add fookilled 1}
so unless you get the message:
A Patricia is dead!, this example should work fine.
I used "^" to match the beggining of the pattern and "*" is the wild card to match any mob.
