Im trying to configure the mapping tool in zmud/cmud both and I run into the same problems with both clients. I cant get the configuration correct, at one point I had this thing worked out, but all my settings were deleted and now it wont configure automatically, and ive tried to set it up manually, but it seems that I just cant figure it out. Ive read the help files on this subject and thought i understood them pretty well but still nothing :( anyways Im trying to use the mapper on the mud Materia Magica, its at Materiamagica.com:4000 heres a sample of the <dir> or <look> commands' responses

Dimly-Lit Bedroom - - -

Visible Exits: (W)
You have entered a darkened bedroom, dimly lit from an elaborate golden
lamp in the far corner. The entire room is draped in garish, dark-red
velvet, except in the center of the room, where a raised dais supports a
dark cherry, four-poster bed. Of course, the bed is draped heavily in light
pink and white silk gauze.
Wait a minute, why is that beaver snarling?

I added the 3 lines of astrisks obviously just to seperate the log from the rest of this post, I can get the exits to match up in the autoconfigure, but the room name and room description are never right

basically I feel like Ive tried everything else, I was hoping maybe someone could log on to MM for me, or maybe someone who already plays and make a configuration file and save it and send it to me so I can import their settings to mine, this is the only thing I can think of. PLEASE HELP if you can. Like I said before I used to have this feature working years ago, and had many different maps for the different areas in the game, and I just cant get into the game without my zMaps (or cMaps) this is one of the best features of zuggsoft mud clients and i cant play without them :(

Thanks

take a look at the #TAG, #NOMAP, and #NODIR commands

then make #TRIGGERs that make use of them

reconfigure the map after trigger creation.
