i am making a script that will loop through all rooms in a zone, then do something for each room. and in v6.26 as i use this alias to loop with:
(alias generate)
#if %1 {generateroom %1} {#loop 0,%numrooms {generateroom %mapvnum( %i)}}

however i also want this script to work in v5.55 that doesnt have the %mapvnum() function, what to do ?
#if %1 {generateroom %1} {#loop 0,%numrooms {generateroom %roomnum( %i)}}
would work fine if noone has ever deleted any rooms.. but i cant do that assumption, is there a way to check the roomnum of the highest numbered room or something?

well i solved it, not a good solve so if anyone comes up with a better solution, please do tell:
my solution:
#if %1 {generateroom %1} {
#var tttroomnum 0
#var ttroomnum 0
#while (@tttroomnum<%numrooms) {generateroom @ttroomnum}
}

then in generateroom i do this:
#var myroom %1
#add ttroomnum 1
#if %roomexit( @myroom) {generateroom2;#add tttroomnum 1}

lots of overhead if someone has deleted lots of rooms from the zone though, thinking bout doing a check on the zmud version, and dooing this if v 5.55 and the previous solution if 6.26+
