6.61: Rooms with "," in name problem?
 
I have room like this in my favourite MUD:

The Waiting Room of the Great Highglug, Nulph I
It is a very drab, yet filthy, room. The walls are covered in grime and
dirt, the floor is just as bad, and the ceiling makes you want to gag.
There is a hard wooden chair in the corner where guests are allowed to sit
while they wait....the Aghar just use the floor.

Automapper doesn't recognize the name and description of this room. But at the same time it recognizes all other rooms around. The only difference I found is: this room name contains "," in it. Is it bug or I can do something to help automapper in this case?

It's always been like this, has the same problems recognising rooms with '[' and ']' and '-' .. probably every kind of punctuation really... you can force it to get the right name by using #TAG but you need to find something to trigger off (maybe a colour code, or exits line or something).

Maybe, but it did recognize it right in 5.xx versions and it still entered in this room (and moved cursor on map right way) in 6.52. 6.61 refuses move map cursor to this room and I had to use "Force enter to this room" flag... :(
