Alright I will see if I can explain clearly what I am trying to do here.

In the MUD I play I am a profession that does lots of different things per round. Which can include spells, melee and music all in one round.

Now most of these skills are afflictions so of course I don't want to double up on them unless of course they are healed.

Now my intent is to make 3 rows of buttons where I can select what I will be doing manually, but the game goes fairly quickly and I might be drunk sometimes...so I will want it to pick certain skills at random to do but not repeat them if it has just done that skill.

So is there a way to pick a random alias to fire off based on a predefined group of them, and eliminate certain ones that have been used. (Which if the affliction is healed in front of me it will go back into the mixup(but I can figure that out on my own if I can figure out that first part)).

So a fight might go something like this on the generic random.

Round 1:

Give Insomnia
Freeze Target
Trip Target

Round 2:
Give Anorexia
Burn Target
Breakarm Target

(Target Heals Insomnia)

Round 3:
Insomnia is now an option, but not a must.
Acid Target
BreakLegs Target.

#var atkList {give insomnia|freeze target|trip target|give anorxia|burn target|breakarm target|acid target|breaklegs target}
#var templist {}
#forall {@atkList} {#additem templist {%i}}
#alias sAtk {satk2 %item(@templist,%random(1,%numitems(@templist)))}
#alias sAtk2 {#delitem templist {%0};%0}

#trigger {insomnia cured message} {#additem templist {give insomnia}}

untested, but I think it should work in general.

Great thanks for the response, that should be what I needed right there!
