Automapper Circle/Dikumud
 
I've tried a number of times to get Automapper to work for my mud but it never works out, Always the rooms overlap and teh room names are distorted for some odd reason.

Usually when i move n s e or w i get this:

Code:
You ride south on a dark horse of Necros.
The Castle donation area
              Obvious Exits:
 /    N    \  North      - The Castle Courtyard
|     |     | East       - A small donation area: Armor and other worn Equipment
|   W-U-E   | South      - A small donation area: Staffs, Scrolls, Wands and Pills
|     |     | West       - A small donation area: Miscellaneous Items, Lights and Survival
 \    S    /  Up         - A small donation area: Weapons and Instruments
You are riding on a dark horse of Necros, it awaits your command.
The equipment donation manager stands here sorting through items.


I tried to configure it, it captures it all right, but names some rooms
/ n \ north - The castle courtyard like that
and every time i run into the room it overlaps and creates a new one..
Could someone help me get this working because the automapper sounds really cool

You are going to have to use #TAG or perhaps MXP. #TAG requires you to also #TAG your prompt as well.

#trigger {^You ride *.} {#NOMAP} //triggers like these are important as they tell ZMud to ignore lines
#trigger {^([A-Za-z ])$} {#TAG Name %1}
#cond {Obvious Exits:} {RoomExits = "";#T+ tExits}
#cond {^{You|The|An|A|Some}} {#TAG Exits @RoomExits}

#trigger "tExits" {({North|South|East|West|Up|Down})%s- *} {#additem RoomExits %1}

With MXP, you will have to set up the <!ELEMENT> tags beforehand to create the tag (how to do this is specifically for the mapper is contained within the MXP Specification page located within the Support|Zmud Support menu at the top), and then use the tExits trigger above to #MXP in the tags. Once in, the mapper should pick up on the tags automatically.
