%reversedir in and out
 
%reversedir works great for everything I need it for, except in and out. Is there a good way to add that functionality, or work around it some way?

I wonder how this works with %reversedir or whether you need to have set up a special exit. Maybe someone with more recent mapper experience can help you.

If you are using the mapper you could test with

Non-standard exits
While you can create non-standard exits (like enter, portal, etc) by manually creating a link and editing it's properties, you can also create one while walking around your MUD creating your map from the MUD command line. Simply prefix the non-standard direction with the MapDir character (defaults to >) and the mapper will create the new room as you move. So, for example, if one of the exits from the room is "enter", simply type ">enter" on the command line and a room will be created and linked with the Other exit called "enter". Normally the mapper will put the new room in a vacant spot near the original room. To force the room to be created a certain cardinal direction from the original room, put the cardinal direction after the other exit separated by another ">" character. So, for example, to create a new room to the east, you would type ">enter>e". This is only needed when you first need to create the room. Once the room is created, simply typing "enter" should follow the existing link to the room.


If not maybe test with direction pairs:
