I'm mapping the MUD I play and using the double-click on the map to speedwalk to some locations. However before I do this, in FAST mode, I need to switch on a skill allowing me to run without tripping over. Is there a way to automatically append this single command to any speedwalk *before* starting to run?

Since I started mapping and using speedwalking I get commands sent to the MUD which I dont want. For example if I try to move south I get the command 'Open South' sent to the mud (which isnt needed as there is no door) before the command 'South'. Why am I getting these 'open' commands appearing when there are no doors?

The OPEN commands appear because the mapper thinks the exit is a door - you'll see the door symbol on the exit. Just rclick on it and uncheck door and it'll stop doing it. The speedwalk thing I don't know how to do, but if it's not currently possible it's a good idea for a CMUD event.

Problem is I cant delete the Door setting - its greyed out. Seems to be fixed.

The mapper needs to be in Edit mode rather than Follow mode to edit anything, including exits. Sure that's not it?

OK thanks for that - Ive now managed to delete all the rogue doors. However the map saving is driving me nuts. Theres no 'Save' command under the File menu as Windows apps usually have,only 'Save As'. If I try to save over an older version of the map it tells me The operation cant be performed on a closed dataset. The alternative is to have hundreds of versions of the map numbered differently and manually delete old ones. Am I missing something here?

It saves itself automagically, so there's no need to do it manually.
