ok i have a trigger
Pattern: You close your eyes and whisper a chant.

Value:
q c
invoke 2
invoke hand
invoke 1 at 2 skel
invoke vigor at dravon

ok when the 2 skel dies I get this message
But the 2nd skeleton is dead!

is there a way to make it invoke 1 at 3 skel when I get But the 2nd skeleton is dead! message without haveing to go and change it in my triggers?

Perhaps I don't understand what you want to do very well, but can't you create another trigger to fire ont hat message?:
#TRIGGER {But the 2nd skeleton is dead!} {invoke 1 at 3 skel}

I want to keep doing everything I was doing
invoke 2
invoke hand
invoke 1 at 2 skel
invoke vigor at dravon

I just want it to change to
invoke 2
invoke hand
invoke 1 at 3 skel
invoke vigor at dravon

when it sees But the 2nd skeleton is dead!
What I want is a autolooping trigger to keep invokeing all the others but just move through all the skeletons in the room

i'm not sure what you need exactly, like do you have a trigger to count the skeletons already? what is this invoke command? is it an alias? you can use a while loop to thru the skeletons. Maybe you can incorporate this into your script:

#var skeletons {number of skeletons}
#var x 0
#while (@x < @skeletons) {invoke 1 at @x skel;#add x 1}

however i think that kjata's trigger is probably more help, just add a variable in there that increases as the skeletons die like this:

#trigger {But the %w skeleton is dead!} {#add skeletons 1;invoke 1 at @skeletons skel}

again you would have to do background triggers to count the number of skeletons, kinda like this:

#trigger {A skeleton is here standing} {#add skeletons 1}

and with this you would have to find a place to set the value of skeletons to 0 either when you enter a new room, or when all the skeletons are dead, maybe something like this:

#trigger {You leave %w} {#var skeletons 0}
#trigger {you don't see the skeleton here} {#var skeletons 0}

hope this helps..

Ill try the skell counter see if that works. here is my trigger set I use it is an auto script so I just keep casting gaining uses. all of the spells I cast at myself but 1. and I cast it at the 2nd skel. It dies and I get the message But the 2nd skeleton is dead! when i get that message I want to keep doing everything I am doing but just switch to the 3rd skel or 4th etc.
