Automapping help needed
 
Hi, all. I'm having trouble getting the automap to map Realms of Despair properly. I believe that the problem is caused by the MUD not putting any natural spaces between the prompt, the room title, the room description, the exit, and whatever objects/mobiles are in the room. It treats it all as one long paragraph.

At the end of this post I've put an example of the MUD output so you all can see what I mean. Does anyone have any suggestions on some triggers that I could use to break up the output and make it more readable to Zmud? Or am I going in the wrong direction altogether, and something else is causing the problem?

Creatures of the Hunt
The smell of earth is quite strong in this small, dark hut. Even stronger than
that is the smell of fecal material, which predominates certain sections of the
floor. The hut is sparsely decorated, with a simple blanket on the floor in the
back corner, upon a bed of rather dirty straw. The walls of the hut, like those
of most of the buildings in the tribe, are made of animal hide. Pictures of a
variety of different animals line the dark, stained walls, evidently allowing
those who wish to do business to simply point at what they want without having
to resort to small talk. The sound of a variety of animals is heard nearby.

Exits: north
A large half-ogre with an eye patch and only one arm grins at you.
Lagesh is shrouded in flowing shadow and light.
Lagesh says 'May the weak feed you! What type of animal are you looking for?'

In the past, this is how one user mapped ROD (Realms of Despair):
