Mapping problems
 
I just upgraded from version 6.22 to 7.05. Mapping used to work just fine from but now it just won't work at all. I trying making a new configuration with the wizard and manually but nothing worked. Sometimes a new room is added but most of the time it just isn't doing anything. Here are a few sample room descriptions, i hope someone can help me with it.

east
Entrance to the Mine
[ ] The rhythmic sound of rock hammers echos throughout the
[ 1 5 ] entrance to the mine. Giants bustle about carrying containers
[ 1<3>1 ] full of yrilite to be weighed by the dwarf overseer. The
[ * 1 ] giants arranged a deal with the dwarves, they would oversee the
[ ] operation of the mine in exchange for allowing their most
promising smiths to apprentice with Bugrin and Sewyn. The
main tunnel is to the west, just on the other side of the
large, stone door. The mine, and the rhythmic sound of the
hammers, is to the east.
[Exits: east west]

A giant swings his heavy pick axe, carefully chipping out pieces of yrilite ore.
A student takes a break from his work with Bugrin.
The overseer of the mine carefully weighs each load of yrilite ore.
A Fierce warrior Beast has arrived from the west.

(Entrance to the Mine) You are tired. Quest: 0/
east
The Mine
[ ] The lights from the miners pierce the darkness like tiny,
[ 5 ] dancing stars. Fine, gray dust covers everything, including
[1 3<1> ] the miners, and hangs in the air like an early morning fog
[ 1 ] rolling in off the coast of the Dragon Sea. A few dwarves
[ ] mingle in with the giants, helping and supervising the hard
work that is at hand.
[Exits: north south west]

A dwarf helps the giants mine for yrilite.
A Fierce warrior Beast has arrived from the west.

The characters before the description ( [ 2 ] ) look a little weird but if you use a fixed space font it displays all the rooms around you with the # of mobs in it. It would not be a problem if this isn't mapped but i don't want to disable it during mapping.

Doesn't anyone have a clue what can be wrong? I literally tried every single checkpoint in the configuration settings but nothing works. Not even a faulty recognized room is added. Never. During autoconfiger the room is correctly identified but when i try to repeat it during normal mapping for the same room nothing happens. The correct direction is showing in the queue but the mapper just keeps on waiting for something.
And yes i am in mapping mode.
