Mapper can't recognize my mud
 
I tried years ago to get the mapper working but had no luck. Thought I'd try again, and the result is the same.

I play at Gateway (www.gatewaymud.org), an LPMud (modified, I believe). I tried in several different areas, using the mapper built in to zMud v7.21. In one area, the mapper can see the room name and description but not the exits. In another, it can see the exits and description, but not the room names.

In the following area, the mapper could pick out the exits and description but cannot seem to find the room name. I'm sure it's a setting somewhere on the configuration but everything I tried either didn't help or made it worse.


[Small room with a fireplace]
This is a small comfortable room dominated by a large fireplace
against the north wall. This room appears mostly unused and a thin layer
of dust covers everything.
There is one obvious exit: south.
Old Dwarf.

All of the rooms on this mud have their room name surrounded by [ ]. Is there some way I can mark that as something for the mapper to watch for?

thanks,
Clarin

It sounds like you needs to do a custom mapper. If you post more output, one of the forum members like myself may be able to help you. Also you can try search for custom mapping triggers.

#trigger {your prompt} {#tag prompt} "" {nocr|prompt}

#condition {~[(*)~]} {#tag name "%1"}

You may need to do exits and description as well, and in that case you will need to add two more conditions before the prompt to the name trigger.
