I was wondering if someone could tell me how I could make the #ok thing work in aliases like they do in paths.

also, correct me if im wrong but paths are recording incorrectly for me.

Or at least some way for the alias to #pause if it doesnt see the Obvious exits or it is dark. Because its not working in paths.

Aliases are designed for a different purpose than Paths. There is no easy way to make them pause and wait for room entry to be confirmed.

The same route appears different in a recorded Path and a recorded Alias because Paths and Aliases are different. Paths use single-character Directions, so the entire route is strung together into a single line. Aliases use the same commands as the MUD, so they need one line for every step and don't substitute j for ne.
