Regex for transforms.conf for splitting string

Been trying hundreds of different ways to get there,

I have a REGEX in transforms.conf that creates Timers, Values fields. These contain comma separated numbers, e.g.

63,218

21521,1,0

I am trying to turn these in to mv lists with other transforms, e.g.

[toserver-instr-timers]

SOURCE_KEY = Timers

REGEX = (?[^,]*),

MV_ADD = true

This works, but does not get the last timer/value, so th T array has just 63 and the V array has only 21521 and 1

How do I get the regex to make the last non , terminated field into an array elemenet.

Have you tried to turn the last comma into optional?

REGEX= (?<t>[^,]*),?
