Trigger problem using maps |
I've run into a problem mapping a room that has different descriptions when going thru in different directions. The room description is typical heading north: You are in tall pine trees in a light forest.
Heading south the description gets buried: As you go south you are happy to get back to the forest. A sign hangs on a tree saying 'Come Back Soon' but you doubt you will. You are in tall pine trees in a light forest.
#TRIGGER {^As you go south you are happy to get back to the forest. A sign hangs on a tree saying 'Come Back Soon' but you doubt you will.} {#NOMAP} did not work, so I broke the lines up into two separate triggers but that didn't work either:
#TRIGGER {^As you go south you are happy to get back to the forest.} {#NOMAP}
#TRIGGER {^A sign hangs on a tree saying 'Come Back Soon' but you doubt you will.} {#NOMAP}
Any ideas? |

Try:
#TR {As you go south you are happy to get back to the forest. A sign hangs on a tree saying 'Come Back Soon' but you doubt you will. } {#SUB{}} |

Thanks for the suggestion. I appreciated your reply but the trigger didn't work (syntax error on #SUB). I didn't noodle around with it to figure out why, but what ended up working was creating links in both directions. Once they were in place I was even able to delete #NOMAP triggers.

The reason for the syntax error is because shalimar forgot to place a space between the #SUB and the {}}. It should actually be {#SUB {}}.
