Zugg Software :: View topic - [3.12] Still having trouble with "Other" exit stubs.

Magician Joined: 17 Apr 2005 Posts: 496

The mapper doesn't auto-create "Other" type exit stubs when I create a room (I hear it's supposed to now, but I haven't played in several releases). This is a problem because sometimes I'll miss those exits when I'm mapping an area. I tag all room names, room descriptions, and exits, for example:

#tag exit @room.exits

Where @room.exits is a stringlist like "north|out". I've created in and out direction objects, and when I actually move in those directions it will create new rooms, so I'm not sure why it won't stub them correctly.

You will need to give me a more detailed procedure for reproducing this. ReedN created some test scripts in some other posts about this and it's working fine in 3.12 as far as I can test.

The key is to define "out" as a custom direction. But it sounds like you already did that. You might also want to debug using #SHOW to see the exact contents of the @room.exits value to make sure it is set correctly. But your example sounds exactly like what I tested with ReedN and got working already.
