Is there a way for mushclient to notify me if a mud I'm playing appears to be idle? On this mud I should have some kind of text sent to my client every 3.5 minutes. I'd like mushclient to play me a sound if it doesn't see any text sent in that time. Another note a lot of the text that may be sent is gagged but I'd like this to keep track of gagged text as well.

Yes, this is possible by scripting it.

Make a timer that fires every 3.5s and make it play your sound. Make a trigger on your text that uses world.ResetTimer() on said timer. If the text does not come in, it will start making the noise you want.

That would work assuming I used a regular expression like ^.*$ for a trigger. I already have triggers set up though and my experience is that if more then one trigger matches only one of the triggers will fire. How can I allow multiple triggers to fire?

Click "keep evaluating" on any trigger to allow trigger evaluation to continue.

Make sure in this case the trigger has a low sequence number (eg. 10, or 1) so it is evaluated first.
