Hmm... it seems like the plugin also has trouble with roomnames that have commas...

Also. I made a change with "main.lua" file in the script folder. I made it to where in/out and up/down exits have there own characters so that it's possible to tell them apart from the normal rooms that use the pound character. I think it's pretty cool. Now I could probably do without the compass.

I also have Nick's mapper running with your mapwindow plugin so that I have access to some of the feature it has and so I can use it as a backup or for when the room isn't mapped. Though, for some reason or another, I can't right click on rooms with Nick's plugin. Gives me an error. Also, I mentioned before that the mapper considers ALL rooms to be in the same area (area 0). I saw the screenshots of it in the "Achaea mapper" thread and saw that it listed the area names correctly... so I don't know what's up with mine. This could probably go in another thread though...

You're going to have to add a comma to the list then:


 match   = [[^\-+(?: [A-Za-z'"\-_ \(\),]+ )?(?:\-+)?(?: -?\d+:-?\d+:-?\d+ )\-+$]],

As for the error, what was it exactly?

This is it.

Error number: 0
Event:        Run-time error
Description:  [string "Plugin"]:871: bad argument #1 to 'WindowInfo' (string expected, got nil) stack traceback: 	[C]: in function 'WindowInfo' 	[string "Plugin"]:871: in function 'room_click' 	D:\Games\MUSHclient\lua\mapper.lua:261: in function <D:\Games\MUSHclient\lua\mapper.lua:253>

EDIT: By the way... I would have added the comma myself... but I can't tell what's going on with that line. :P

Slick. I should have thought of that. *laughs* My plan was to add an overlay of up/down/in/out symbols on top of each room, but I didn't get around to it. Your approach is probably smarter though: since each room on the MAP can only have one symbol for information at a time, there's not much point, because you'd never have more information besides a symbol and a color to display.

To break it down:

pattern ::= <dashes> <room nane> <dashes>? <coordinates> <dashes>
dashes ::= (?:\-+)
room name ::= (?: [A-Za-z'"\-_ \(\),]+ )?
coordinates ::= (?: -?\d+:-?\d+:-?\d+ )

Since the room name characters are clearly so hard to pin down, I'd try just using this instead:

room name ::= (?: .+? )?

One or more of any character, non-greedy match, whole thing optional. That comes out to:

^\-+(?: .+? )?(?:\-+)?(?: -?\d+:-?\d+:-?\d+ )\-+$

Yeah. You've done good. The map is more compact because you took the brackets out, which makes it nicer as a mini window because I think it might make it more "mini". Anyways, I had to make up/down as U/D because the underscore looked weird (it just looked like more of the lines between the rooms) without the brackets. I was wondering if there was a upside down caret or maybe some arrows I could use... but I didn't find any. "U" and "D" look good though. The in/out exits are still represented as "<" and ">" too.

Yeah. That line is less confusing. I'll see if there's a difference in performance between the two later. Thanks!

Could use 'v', couldn't you? ^v<>

I hope you're putting my translation tables (color and symbol) to good use. :)

Oh man... I never thought of using "v"... I'll try that.

Hey Twisol, I got your gauges plugin off of your site and have been trying to get it to run off of Nick's ATCP plugin, since it is what the new mapper runs off of...and I'm having a lot of trouble getting into your work and figuring out what is going on. Could you point out what exactly I'd have to change to get it to work?
