Hello all,

I do have a strange issue with the automapper (playing at a German mud, modified directions).

Sometimes at at new rooms, the automapper draws the possible exits like north and south at the map.

Sometimes though, the automapper does not recognize the possible exits and for example does only draw north, but not south.

Does anyone have an idea what could be causing that ? Maye the room descriptions differs somehow ? (could not see a difference though yet).

Thank you !

The mapper creates stub exits based on data contained in the line marked for that information. If your mud does not provide a definite 'exit line' then all directions in the description are used for making stubs. Currently there is a bug with certain nonstandard exits such as 'northup, southeastdown' this same bug might be affecting you. Without more information, such as an annotated example of a room, we can't really help. I do not think it is this bug causing your problem, most likely it is a configuration issue.

Hi!

I have an other problem with Automapper/Map creation mode.
Any time - i don't know, why - the automapper don't move the indicator, when i move to an other location (my char moves on the MUD, a greater part of exits working properly, any is wrong from both side, any only from one). In these case, i can't move (on map) to other room, and even can't make new room bye mooving to a clear area.
I'm playing on a hungarian MUD - Arkansia - and i have set up the most hungarian directions. I don't use captute methods for exits, full and short room decriptions, and walk only fast or manually. I never used slow walking (it's not a surprise without room infos...).
If i switch to walk mode, i can use it normally, can go to that directions (but of course, can't make a new).
I have make any rooms with Keyboard creation mode, the error works, but i can't say, what is with normally made rooms, i can't, were are they.

Can anybody help me? Thanx!

Bye!
