When I do #FIND it doesnt find it on the map. zMUD version 7.05. Windows XP. MUd output looks like this when #FIND is typed. I know for a fact this is the only room with this name on the map. It does it with all rooms, it doesn't find it.

* R HP:Healthy MV:Full > Merchant Square
Perhaps the most crowded place in all of Tar Valon, the square is packed with
people shopping along Merchant Square. In the square is a fountain, which
some people lean against to rest or merely watch all that is surrounding
them. The White Tower lies a bit to the north, but people take no more notice
of it than the other buildings along the road.
[ obvious exits: N E S W ]
A fountain is here, offering clear blue water to all.
A gray palfrey prances skittishly nearby, being ridden by you.
Laria Darksbane, the Journey Accepted is standing here.
Wynoa of the Three-Fold Land, Aes Sedai of the Brown Ajah is standing here, riding a spotted horse.

Help please!

Grrr... I messed with the configuration settings so it fit my MUD and now my map doesn't follow me either.

An oil lamp, set in a steel cage, hangs from a high wooden pole.
An elaborately sculpted marble fountain splashes merrily.
A gray palfrey prances skittishly nearby, being ridden by you.
An Illianer steed stands here proudly, its black mane glistening.
A draft horse is here.

Thats the MUD output when I'm walking.

Okay, got it to follow me now, and I THINK #find will work. But it only works when I make the MUD show the descriptions, creating insane spam. :(

Thanks Bromax! Find works now! Although my map still only follows me when I make WoTMUD show descriptions... which I absolutely hate... can't someone help me make it work with descriptions off? Or what happens if I gag descriptions? And is there a way to make it gag descriptions? I'll show MUD output again:

With descriptions:

* HP:Healthy MV:Full > Easing the Badger
The common room has sawdust on the floor, and tabac smoke hangs in the air.
It smells of wine, and fish cooking in the kitchen and a heavy, flowered
perfume. The exposed beams of the high ceiling are rough-hewn and age-dark.
Benches, tables and stools fill most of the room. A staircase at the back
wall leads up to the guest rooms on the second floor.

A member of the Illian watch is here, keeping order in the city.
Nieda Sidoro is keeping a sharp eye on her establishment.

Without:

Oh for crying out loud! It works now. I did absolutely nothing.

Is there a way I can make it still register where I'm going when it's dark out? zMUD doesn't show me moving when it's dark. :P MUD output looks like this when it's dark:

* HP:Healthy MV:Tiring > It is pitch black...

#TRIGGER {It is pitch black} {#OK}

Does #find work for you when the room name is on the same line as the prompt? To check this I set my location to a room I know I'm not in and type exa several times then #find (simulates spamming commands) this still doesn't work for me....let me know how you have it configured if it works for you.

I did what Raine did in what of those links you put. I set #FIND to do l instead of look and made an alias on the game, not with zMUD, so l does look. I'll show you what the output looks like.

Jatistuta has arrived from above.

As you can see, it moves the room name down to its own line, making it work. :D
