So is there some sort of Regex string that'll return only the lines with attackers and not those with both attackers & victims? This is the furthest I've gotten but it still returns every line.
attacker_position ".*[^"]">$
So, any tips?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
One of these will find only the lines without victim
Which to use depends on if there is any whitespace after the >
No-white space:
attacker_position ".[0-9]+ .[0-9]+ .[0-9]+">$
one white space:

two white space:
attacker_position ".[0-9]+ .[0-9]+ .[0-9]+">..$

You can use the TextFX features to Show or Hide lines (not) containing some text or regular expression copied to the clipboard.
So I have a server log with about 600 lines of

Use the following single regex to find or show all the lines you want:
attacker_position "\d+ \-\d+ \-\d+"> *$
Of course, you can also use the victim_position (part) to hide or delete lines that you do not want.
nevermind I just found the "Hide lines without clipboard text" command
