On the mud im playing at the moment it has a zone that I have mapped, but for about 6 rooms in the corners of the zone, they change where they are linked to depending on the date.

E.g: if you do TIME and the date is "The year of Maighdain" then the rooms will link to somewhere specific acordingly.

What I would like to know, is how to have a trigger that changes where the rooms link to relating to the date picked up whenever you do the TIME command.

Ideas? Sugestions?

Thanks in advance

As I have yet to find something zmud can't do......

#TR {The year of Maighdain"} {#call %maplocked(0);#call %roomlink(1,w,2);#call %maplocked(1)}

so yes you need %roomlink

The breakdown
#call %maplocked(0) //allows editing of the map
#call %roomlink(vnum,dir,typeORvnum) //ok here is the tricky one depening on %roommode if its one use use room key num if its 0 use the rooms vnum

so lets say you have a map with the main room as 1 and two possible rooms it can connect to as room 2 and 3.
room 1 has a west exit and an east exit but the east exit can go to 2 or 3 depending on the time so you would need something like this in your trigger #call %roomlink(1,e,3) and to set it back a trigger on the time when its differant #call %roomlink(1,e,2)

#call %maplocked(1) //locks the map
