I am trying to make a triger that will extract the room directions and run to a room if a key string is not sent it will run back then to the next direction that was captured untel set string is sent

Barracks (n,ne,sw,w,nw).

The question is how do I make a triger to use the , as a delimiter.

The following will extract the directions from the sample text you provided and put them into a string list.

#TR {Barracks ~((*)~).} {#VARIABLE dirs %replace("%1",",","|")}

#TRIGGER {~((*)~).$} {#VARIABLE directions %replace("%1", ",", "|")}
That will put all the directions found between the ( and ) in the room directions into a string list.
The variable @directions will contain the string "n|ne|sw|w|nw"
There's a number of ways you can use that string to do what you want.
