Setting Room ID to Room Name
|
I need to have my room ID's the same as my Room names on my mapper.
I have already got a hell of a lot of rooms and I don't fancy going through each one and changing them by hand.
Is there some code I could use to do this change over?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Its ok I have solved it using this script
#ALIAS roomiding
#VAR room 1
#LOOP X {%roomid( @room, %roomname(@room));#ADD room 1}
#SAY Finished!!!!
Where X is the number of rooms.

It's not really important given the way you wrote it, but %i will start at 0 (which means it's looping one extra time). You might be getting an extra room, but I'm not familiar with the %room functions.
Anyways, you could eliminate the @room variable and change the loop to this:
#alias roomiding {
#loop 1,X {%roomid( %i, %roomname(%i))}
#say Finished!!!!
}
This will start with room #1 and end with Room #X, with no chance of messing with Room #0 or Room #X+1 (both of which should be invalid rooms?)

I know I sound like the newbie I am, but...
Do we have to change X to be the number of rooms in the zone?
And do I have to run that alias on every room or once in each zone?

For the above question, just replace X with %numrooms() and then run the alias once in each zone.
However, there IS a way to do it so that you need only run the alias just once per map. You need to check out the %numrooms(), %numzones(), %zonename(), and %zonenum() functions. It SHOULD work along the same lines as the roomiding aliases shown earlier.
