#look command
 
Is there a way to have this command automatically stop running if it doesn't quickly match a room....just tired of getting 30+ seconds of lag and 20 error messages popping up when I'm not on the correct zone in the mapper.

#LOOK reloads the room name/description/exits for the current room in the mapper. The behaviour you've described sounds more like #FIND.

What version are you using? If you upgrade to 6.40, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by the mapper speed increases in this area.

Oh yeah...my alias is look for the #find command...so I upgraded to 6.4

ACK!!!!!

All maps were converted and now the #find command doesn't work at all....and mapping new rooms took about 10 seconds PER ROOM!!! Hopefully It's just me being stupid...any advice?
