%pathexpand will convert an existing path to a string list
%pathfrom is useful for making CMUD create figure its own best route from 'here' rather then having to go to a central hub first
im usually ...

You can run multiple instances from the same install folder
I have never tried multiple installations, though.

and, crucially, you hold the source code.

Herein lies the main flaw with your argument as i understand in. Many parts of the source code are paid for from a third party, and not Zugg's alone, and t ...

Seems like i found a function that never got updated from zMUD.
Since it requires an unsigned variable, it doesnt know what to do with a $local, @$local is invalid and @local doesnt exist.

If it is a standalone variable, then your issue is syntax
$ = local variable, required for referencing and declaring
@ = normal variable, only used to reference, not to define

to define it in a z ...

as to the pathing issue, local variables dont have a path, they are stored in memory and only exisit within the code block they are called from, as soon as the relevant } is parsed, they are thrown aw ...

Its not a matter of what the value should be.
In an ideal world things are always what they should be.
Testing is to verify that it is what it should be.

and try: %db(@mobdb_vars, $zone)

Have you tested that any of your local variables have a value, much less the correct one, with #ECHO #SAY or #PRINT?
if $zone itself is null you will get a false negative result even with correct syn ...

A shortcut to force any script to be threaded is to insert a
#WAIT 0
at the start. Not near as powerful as proper threading, but if you just need to do a %mapquerry, or most anything involving data ...

#IF (%null( @myvariable)) {#var myvariable "NO"}

you are missing a space betwween the true and false segments of your if statement, you can also leave the false off if its empty

Don't forget to run the program as an admin at least once so it has write permissions on the system.
Without that the layout might never save.

there is an option for that in preferences

you need to include the @ symbol to reference your variables inside the function:

%ismember(@test, @mindstates)

I never got that deep in the mapper, but according to the help file the two vnum functions return the same result. likely retained for backwards compatability
they are the respective listorder of the ...

vnum is one of the options there in #HELP #TAG
Rooms are typically numbered in creation order.
Both client side and server side.
Odds are you didnt map in the same order as the game admin created t ...

You need to make #TAG triggers for those

those help to tell the mapper which bit is what. (including vnums)

You said you already had to make some GMCP triggers, those would hold the appropriate ...

It is not only you, half the time it acts like i clicked on preview instead.

If that is a common issue, you should stick the mapper into slow mode, then it only tries to move one step at a time, and you will only get a single failure.
If you set up an #OKAY trigger as well, t ...

I usually verify my room entry with the exits line:

#TR {Obvious exit{s|}:} {#OK}

#OK tells the mapper I have arrived. and it updates the dot if there are any movements queued.
(dont forget to ...

i believe the prebuilt events used enter, not entry, so that could just be a typo issue

Odd, not sure I can explain it either.
Glad you found a working solution.

Are you toggling %maplocked as well?
Like your script does.

The mapper can be very finicky about when its database can be edited.

It it possible your trigger is hanging on the waitfor and never ...

Anyone else getting an odd popup with a garbled message (looked like a break to me, i shoulda took a screenshot) when first opening CMUD of late?
