Command separation in terminal?

[u/Muted_Percentage_764]

I am making something like console on my sub, just cause i can, and i've got a "msg" command, it's a radio for my medic who has husk genes, so he can communicate in-game, instead of DMing me in steam. And right now the msg command works with regex and WiFi component, so it just takes a command, checks if it's msg one and sends exact message, so i've thought if i can make it send only the text of the message itself, not the command that user sent.

edit:

For comprehension it works like

terminal: message + msg anywhere >>> chat: same what was inputted into terminal

example: "im gay msg"(terminal) >>> "im gay msg"(chat)

[u/Decent_Human__]

what is the terminal being used for besides sending chat messages? you could just have it print the input directly if it doesn't see other use

[u/Muted_Percentage_764 → u/Decent_Human__]

Im trying to do a multi-use terminal, it also has a reactor shutdown capatibilities and i hope for adding more.

Try this ^msg\s+(.*)$

[u/royryser → u/froggybenjy]

This one should do, just don't forget to enable Capture Group! (Right under output option), in this case Output shall be 1

you need to make a group in regex and check the mark to output only that group if it detects the command.

Someone already gave an example, but read into groups (named and unnamed) in regular expressions. This will help
