Zugg Software :: View topic - Problem: Moving South Attempting to Open South in Achaea

I'm experiencing strange behavior whenever I attempt to move south in Achaea. If I enter "s" zMUD appears to be sending "open south" followed by "s" to the server (see snippet below). All other directions appear to be fine. I thought perhaps I had a stray trigger or something, so I completely reinstalled the latest version of zMUD. Same results. I also tried the Java client at the Achaea web site and it works fine when moving south, so I don't think it is the game. Anyone else ever seen this or have any thoughts? Thanks.

I don't see what it is you wish to open.

IF you are using the mapper and the "dot" is stuck in a room with a door exit to the south everytime you try and go south it will send open direction and then the direction, So I would def check to see if the mapper is open

If you ever plan on using the mapper to move around in Achaea, you have to be wary of doors. First off, doors can be closed, and it messes with your speedwalking if you don't have a door shown on the path or if you have not set up the mapper to send opening commands properly.

Tips for mapper and Achaea:
Add door on mapper link when there is one.
In mapper settings, make sure you replace 'open %1' with 'open door %1' in the speedwalk settings.
