Look in the lower-right corner of the mapper window and you'll see the "direction queue" which shows which direction the mapper is currently processing. If you move in an incorrect direction on the MUD, or bump into a closed door, or something like that, then you need to set up a trigger that removes the direction from the queue so that the mapper stays in sync. For example:

#TRIGGER {You cannot go that direction.} {#NODIR}

Make sure you set up MUD-specific triggers like this for any message that blocks your normal movement. There is no way for the mapper to automatically setup these kind of triggers since every MUD is different.
