I downloaded the Lusternia map XML and used Nick's plugin to convert it to a database, and that's where the coordinates come from. (Haven't played Achaea in over five years!)

I always liked zMUD's mapper and how it showed one layer above/below as a sort of shadow set of rooms offset just a little bit. That would be really cool, but I realize how tricky that probably is to actually implement.

I never could get into the others primarily because they lacked a large player base and achaea is so far ahead in terms of development but that's because it was the original and is the money maker.

I got the no shop displaying down set. I've just about got the echoing wormholes it records you warping through set but I had to delete the db file and restart. Having some issues right now with other stuff though in that area.

I didn't like how room echoes for wormholes came out (before room info came up) so I moved them to being displayed on the map itself.

I haven't posted the code for download yet because I wanted to make sure Nick is cool with me posting it online.

Didn't think anyone was paying attention so I edited the earlier posting again.

Worked out a few bugs on my wormhole stuff. The only issue I'm really having now is making the thing save the wormholes. It inserts them into the DB but its like the DB doesn't save the updates.

Found the issue with that dealing with loading up the database. I forgot to tell it to load the wormhole rows.

The RH-click menu now works correctly.

Next is tackling the sometimes not drawing lines for no good reason issue.

Nick do you mind if I post my altered files on my site?

I had a few questions about how to change the functionality of the mapper.

Currently, if start a speed walk using the goto command (or left clicking) and get the "Now, now, don't be so hasty!" message, the speedwalk cancels.

Could we switch this so that it attempts to resume the speedwalk? I tried doing this by changing the function called from the trigger to "map_resume" but this doesn't work because the previous speedwalk is still loaded (because the trigger no longer cancels it).

I tried meddling with it myself, but couldn't get it to work.

Hi Dontarion,

First, thanks for the altered files. It's been a lot of fun checking it out.

The wormholes are saving for me, but I noticed a problem at first because the wormholes weren't actually showing up on the map after being used for the first time. I hunted down the problem:

You have a trigger for "The wormhole spits you out at the other end." This, for some reason, is set to call "no_wormhole" which didn't make sense to me as this is a line you get when you successfully go through a wormhole.

I deleted this trigger and now the wormholes show up successfully on the map (and are saved upon exit). Could this be part of the problem?

The mapper has an option to delay issuing commands to avoid that message. Click on the "configuration icon" (the star in the bottom LH corner) and change Walk Delay to be around 0.3 seconds.

Thanks Nick. I've adjusted this already. I was hoping to find some way of automatically resuming the queue in cases where there's some lag that causes the commands to bunch up.

The mapper in its current state only ever sends one command at once. That is, to speed walk it sends the first direction, waits for a room change, adds on the specified delay, and then sends the next direction. Thus, the speed walks can't bunch up, as they require the room change for the next one to be sent.

The delay isn't always a perfect match - sometimes there are effects that change how quickly you can move - and some way to re-send the last move would be really useful. Anyone could then write a trigger for their MUD's "slow down" message that would retry the last move, and thus continue the speedwalk.

I've upgraded a few things and I'll upload the new files. Bobble I don't always upload my upgrades so that was likely fixed already.

It has farsight integration now.

I'm going to try and fix a wormhole bug regarding two things: checking if the wormhole existed in one output that I need to hunt down and a trigger for wormholes that are destroyed or semi-destroyed. This will take some time since I need to find wormholes that have been destroyed to some extent.

Apparently that doesn't work for me.
