Automapper config and door names
|
Greetings.
Is there a config setting to get the automapper to do the following...
If the door has a name, then use OPEN (doorname)
If the door doesn't have a name, then use OPEN DOOR (dir)
Granted I could just go through my map and give each door a name based on its exit direction, but I don't feel like changing 90% of the doors on my map (pretty big map)
I can't just tell it OPEN DOOR, because if there are two doors leading out of a room it will always try the default one, which is not necessarily the one I want to go through. |

In the Strings and Doors section of the mapper configuration set the door command to "%if(%2,open door %2,open door %1)".

I tried inputting that....
For regular doors, it is now trying to send OPEN DOOR DOOR
For special doors, example: doorname=gate, it sends OPEN DOOR GATE |

Try "%if(%2,open %2,open door %1)". In this instance, %1 is the direction, and %2 is the door name (if the door is named).
You might also get away with simply "open %2 %1", if you also set the default door name (in the same dialog) to "door". This assumes that sending 'open gate north' will work correctly. |

After some fiddling, I discovered that by clearing the default door name section and using the original script, worked perfectly.
There are still a few doors with special commands that I have to do manually... or rather I've got regular triggers to handle those.
As well as locked doors... |

You can use the "other com" box for an exit to define a special command to use that exit if need be. Locked doors will be a problem, obviously - if you generally have the key or whatever to get through, you could use a room script to execute whatever command you need (get key23346 from bag, unlock door w, put key in bag) etc.

you can use the semicolon ; to separate commands in that command line just like any other, might even run an alias 'unlock 23346 west'
