Mapper Madness |
Zmud's mapper is making things more complicated than it is helping.
So I was wondering how to tell zmud exactly how I want it to map.
Write my own mapping triggers.
When in brief mode while I'm walking around I get this
Lobby of the Shadowthief Guild [n,ne,e,s,w].
[n,ne,e,s,w] is in green. I only want it to look for directions in this bracketed green area.
I also get complex exits
The Misty Gates [w,east gate,entryway,white hart].
I can't depend on prompts they're kind of hit and miss.
I'd also like to get long desc. when I look like this
l
This area of the Guild is very unusual. An ominous green mist flows through the room making visibility quite difficult. As the mist moves through the area, gates become visible. These gates appear to be apparitions. They are a gift of the Dark One. These gates are used for Guild Members to venture into different areas instantly. Each gate will take you to a specific area.
There are four obvious exits: west, east gate, entryway and white hart.
I just want to use it for the desc. part of the map and nothing else.
so from when i l to "There are/is number obvious exit(s):"
Can someone whip something up for me I'm at a total loss with mapping scripts
I'm playing at mud.rod.org port 3000 you can easily sign in as a guest if this wasn't helpful I'm in brief mode while walking which you can turn on by typing brief |
