Zugg Software :: View topic - [3.01] Mapper shows twice in Package Library

Not sure if this is intentional, but I'm sure it can probably cause problems down the road.

See how 'full map" shows twice, once without a directory structure and once with a directory structure? The editor panel is exactly the same for both of them. The one with a directory structure contains a folder called Room42218 with an onRoomwalk event that is #NODIR. Not sure if that is intentional, either. Just thought I'd point those out.

Edit: After finally getting my mapper to work again, I opened up the Package Editor to see 4 different instances of a mapper module... seems like it's replicating itself. Not sure what do remove and what to keep...

Confirmed. I saw this as well even though my maps failed to load properly.

That is probably happening when it fails to load your maps.

To "reset" the new version and start with your previous maps again, just delete these Mapper objects in your package editor (editor, not "library") and then exit CMUD and delete the *.DBM files. When you start CMUD again it will try re-convert the maps and recreate the Mapper object.

If it continues to create more and more mapper objects, then somehow the filename show for the mapper object doesn't match the filename of the map being loaded.

Note that you should probably be sure to stick with the default directory layout and make sure the map files are in the same directory as your *.PKG character settings. I haven't done any testing with moving map files around and that's likely to cause problems since CMUD compares the full file path to determine which map goes with with mapper object.

Actually, the first picture was the first time I loaded my session. It came up just like that. Then, when I tried to move a map into my current character files (as noted in another post) it seemed to corrupt everything. *shrug* Not sure what is going on, though.
