I think there are other threads about more generic mappers. But yes, it should be possible to do that. After all, once you have the start line, you can disable the trigger that matches that, and enable one that matches the end line.

So I pulled this down and tweaked the trigger to match the start and end of my map windows and it's working somewhat.

the first two lines of the display show portions of my map rather than the roominfo

Also it's not displaying the start and end lines of the map frame.

Also while Look and and move both display the same map with the same dimensions the map only catches the map when I do a look. when I do a move it only seems to rip my closing line of my map from the main screen. The one difference is on roommoves there is a colournote that is displayed before the map and seems to be breaking the trigger processing the map.

Below are the triggers I use and the map from the mud. Any help is greatly appreciated.

This is just a stylization in the plugin. You can remove the bit that goes


-- title rectangle
   check (WindowRectOp (win, 2, 2, 2, -2, font_height * 2 + 10, title_colour))
   check (WindowRectOp (win, 5, 2, 2, -2, font_height * 2 + 10, 5, 8))

That's because the plugin is set up to catch but not show elements that are merely indicators of the start and end of the map. It only shows the stuff between those indicators. You'd have to edit function map_redirect to look like this if you want to show them...


-- map redirector
function map_redirect (name, line, wildcards, styles)
   if name == "map_start" then
      EnableTrigger ("multi_line_map", true)  -- capture subsequent lines
      map_lines = {}
      max_width = 0
   end

   table.insert (map_lines, styles)
   max_width = math.max (max_width, #line)

   if name == "map_end" then
      EnableTrigger ("multi_line_map", false)  -- no more lines to go
      Display_Map ()
   end -- if

end -- function map_redirect

Then you'll need reconsider how your triggers work, I think.

SO I fixed the issue with picking up the map as it displays on room switching by replacing the coulornotes with simulate so it does not mess with the parsing of map start lines. One final issue I am having is the * that represents my location on the map is showing up in black. In the mud ithas the * with a blinking white cursor so it's not an issue but in the mini window I have to change the background colour from black to grey, but it makes some of the colours look off from the game. Is there a way for me to grab the * and switch the colour?

Thanks
