problem with automapper configuration.
 
the problem is that it just skips the first line and I have not found a way how to fix it.



have had this same problem since zmud 5.X to 6.67 ... for a while I were able to use some proxy server which with its local echo displayed additional command there like:

!# CSW>east
east
The Village of Witfurrows
This village, built on one side of the Road, is formed by little
houses of hobbits. To the north is The Water, and beyond are the
hills in the distance. All around you, you see people walking doing their
daily labours. The hobbits have always been a peaceful race, and this
village proves it.
Exits: west.



but without the additinal line there generated by proxy server it has never worked! and its WRONG... what must I do to fix this? I want to be able to map normally.

it should somehow be possible to tell zmud, that room name is always sent in GREEN (any other) color by mud by default. and only used for roomname and for nothing else so it cant mix it up with something else when some mob jumps to room or something between I sent command and when I actually moved. (right now zmud sometimes takes for roomname etc. "A hobbit child has arrived from the west." and stuff - yeha I know the #NOMAP command here, but still ... cant nomap everything.) but when the thing is fixed that roomname comes in green color then it should fix a lot of problems.

(the exits line is green also due to zmud trigger, not mud output)

Hello. You might want to attempt an offline map configuration.

config->nreconfigure->Offline Setup

Then paste the output to the textbox in the left corner of the window.

If that doesn't work... You might want to add some triggers to aid the mapper.

#TRIGGER {!# CSW} {#tag prompt} prompt
#TRIGGER {Exits: *.} {#tag exit}

Then try to reconfigure the mapper again but with an online reconfiguration. Doesn't it work still? Then we can attempt to identify the green line.

#TRIGGER {*} {#tag name} "" {line=2}

Then as usuall attempt a reconfiguration of the mapper. Good luck Smile.

EDIT: FOUND SOLUTION! something was terribly wrong with my .mud file (which I was used since zmud 5.x) and I never figured out what. so I:
1. exported all stuff to .txt file
2. created new .mud file
3. imported from .txt

...and everything started working perfectly with mapper.
