I play arctic MUD and. But I am jsut not able to make the mapper work. I sed the autoconfig and it detects room name desc and exits right and sets up the starting point. But when I move it doesn't follow?

I am also impressed that Zugg is still developing the cleint, great work! But it seems sooo unusable by newbies that it's just sad.

Any help pelase?

Is mapper in Follow mode?
If you've tried Slow mode and Safe mode, have you tried Fast mode?

Use #TAG. It's probably not correctly identifying your prompt, or possibly is misidentifying some other line as your prompt. Whatever it is, if the mapper cannot find the prompt it will not be able to find everything else and will simply try to guess what is what.

Keep in mind that "I play Whatever MUD" is a poor standard of information if you're looking for help. If you want better help, provide better information. Standard MUD output from the prompt immediately before the issuance of your movement command to the prompt immediately after room info is finished displaying is a must, though more obscure issues will require Debugger output of the same. In addition, the scripts you've attempted to handle the problem should be posted so we can identify and help you learn from "user error" mistakes.

I created a character to check out Arctic MUD. So far the mapper has worked fine and I am able to map in all modes. I haven't seen whether it will recognize the prompt when there are any character condition changes, though.
