Hi i got another question too:

Is there any way of avoiding the reconnecting pannel when i want a character to reconnect with tiggers? i think that causes me crashes.(reconnect comand doesnt work for me)

Tnx again hope to get any answer [^]

To stop the reconnect window from appearign disable Auto Reconnect in the preferences.

To find a specific room, you can use the #MAPQUERY command:
#MAPQUERY {[Name] = 'name of the room'}

Wow that worked really nice to stop the reconnect window from appearign by disabling Auto Reconnect in the preferences. Very Happy

And the other thing... that must be me but... didnt got it... i mean,i write:
the tigger is for example, The questman says you to go '*'

#MAPQUERY {[Name] = '*'}

so just instead of going to map window,click edit,find room,and write the room name,this would be suposed to do it itself (at least im trying so)

And nothing happens when the tigger matches Sad

Thanks for previous help [:I]

Map speed is mostly dependant on how well your Jet drivers and MDAC work. Try going to this page and make sure that you have everything as you should. Then, give 6.62 a try. You could also look at some of the other posts in the forum regarding the speed issues to see if you find anything that helps. Remember that the problems with speed are most likely not because of zMUD (Zugg and many others, along with me, have been using the new mapper format for some time now and it's not slow at all), so they will not magically fix themselves in the future.

If you end up using 6.16 anyway, then try this script:
#LOOP 1,%numrooms() {#IF (%roomname(%mapvnum(%i) = "room name here")) {#VAR roomNum {%i};#VAR roomVNum {%mapvnum(%i)};#ABORT 1}}

Notice that because of the #ABORT 1, if there is any more code after the loop, it will not execute if it finds a match.

Is Zmud suposed to search the room 'name of the room' if i have maps on follow mode,active,when i insert that line:

#LOOP 1,%numrooms() {#IF (%roomname(%mapvnum(%i) = "room name here")) {#VAR roomNum {%i};#VAR roomVNum {%mapvnum(%i)};#ABORT 1}}

cause it doesnt [xx(]

Oops, it has a set of parenthesis wrong. It should be:
#LOOP 1,%numrooms() {#IF (%roomname(%mapvnum(%i)) = "room name here") {#VAR roomNum {%i};#VAR roomVNum {%mapvnum(%i)};#ABORT 1}}

If it finds the room, it will save the room number and vnum to two variables.
