Mapper trouble
 
Ok, sometimes when using the mapper, it will move me to the next room when using #WALK, but the mapper wont follow me (in follow mode) And the next walk I do will start shooting me in all kinds of directions, is there anyway to make sure the mapper follows me? I have the walk in an alias like this:
#ADD gotoroom 1
#WALK @gotoroom

The only way to make sure it really follows you, is to turn off the option 'Match descriptions during speedwalk' so that it doesn't check if the room you move to matches the one on the map. (In the mapper settings, under Speedwalking)

You could use the teleport command to ensure the mapper is in the room you walked to last before you start your next walk.

#TELEPORT @gotoroom
#ADD gotoroom 1
#WALK @gotoroom

#ADD gotoroom 1
#WALK @gotoroom
#TELEPORT @gotoroom

Might be a little better. Since the WALK command is sending the direction for you. Only problem with this tactic is that if you have room scripts they will activate on both the walk and the teleport.
