To quote the helpfile: "In general, making your prompt more complicated will help the mapper work better."

My mapper works ok the way I've set it up, but not flawlessly - so I need your help.

My mud prompt might be any variation of the following:
o HP:Healthy MV:Fresh >
* HP:Healthy MV:Full >
* R HP:Healthy MV:Full >
HP:Healthy MV:Full >
* HP:Healthy SP:Full MV:Full >

Under MUD prompt configuration I've checked "complex prompt" (since the start of the prompt can be a LOT of different characters) and "allow string prompts" since every prompt ends with a >

This makes the mud work perfectly if I walk around slowly - getting output like this:

* HP:Healthy MV:Full > w
Somewhere Else
This place is somewhere else. Isn't it nice here?
[ obvious exits: E S W ]

However, the mapper adds the prompt to the roomname if I walk fast and get this:

w
* HP:Healthy MV:Full > Somewhere Else
This place is somewhere else. Isn't it nice here?
[ obvious exits: E S W ]

For the record, the room name is always in cyan..
Is there any way to keep Zmud from adding the prompt to the roomname when I walk fast?

Thanx :)

You could try a trigger to split the awkward line into two bits thus:
#tr {(* HP:(%a) MV:(%a)) > (*)} {%1;%4}
this has assumed you may want to snag the health and move status, and it may split prompt/command lines when you dn't want it to, but it might be a good starting point...
