In the preferences Script Parser section, turn on the option to use wilcards in {} patterns. Then set your pattern to
^{%w|}%w tells you, ~"
This will allow 1 or 2 words to be valid. |

Another thing you can do is create a stringlist variable with NPC names. To do this, create a variable, we'll say "npclist". Then an alias:
| Code: |
#al {npcadd} {#VAR NPC_list %additem( %prompt( "", "Enter the name of the NPC you wish to exclude from captures") , @NPC_List)}
|
Now, either manually edit the variable, or type "npcadd" to add npc names. Then in the capture, integrate:
| Code: |
#if { %ismember( %1, @npc_list)} {} {Capture Stuff Here}
|
Unfortunately, the code you received before mine is a bit different than I code (and quite likely more effective).. so I don't want to try to give you the entire setup incorrectly. Perhaps Ton would be so kind as to integrate this system into what he gave you (if you're interested).
The advantage of this is that it allows you to strip NPC input even in the case where it's a straight tell from an NPC, as opposed to (and including) the situation you listed. The disadvantage is that with too many NPCs, the variable can become huge and (theoretically) be very slow, if you're on a slow computer.
If you leave the ^ symbol in, and use the setup given to you by ton to allow for 1 or 2 prefix words in addition to the name, for each NPC you'd likely need to add the last 1, 2, and 3 (as 3 seperate entries, 1-word, 2-word, and 3-word) words of their names so it omits all occurances. (removing the ^ symbol, you'd want to just add their last name). I believe the %ismember command is case-sensitive as well... |

sorry to dredge up an old old thread here. I've been using this successfully for a while now, but i have a question. Can i set the tells to be recorded in the logs even though im gagging them?

Heh, yeah I just had a thread about this (was trying to do the same thing). Under View, Preferences, General, Logging, deselect "Log after triggers."
