Hi everyone. Long time user of zMUD, but I just recently started using the Slow Walk feature. I can't seem to find any way to repeat a slow walk. Basically, I want my character to slow walk through a village, back to the entrance, and then repeat. I've tried adding .pathname in the command field, but no dice.

I'd appreciate any help you guys can give, thanks in advance.

slow walk need a trigger to confirm you received sth. from your mud, if you lack this trigger, generaly, slow walk would be abort in 5 sec. or you can add an tick timer(5 sec.) command with #ok, then every 5 sec., you can slow walk 1 step.

Write a trigger to detect your return to the entrance and reissue the slow walk commands. This could be based on the title or description of the entrance or the number of steps taken.

Tried that. :) The thing is, I don't see what commands to use to do the slow walking. I've tried #slow, but it just returns the name of the path, instead of doing the path's commands. The only way I've been able to get Slow Walking to work is from the Settings Editor window.

It seems like maybe you directions got deleted. Try entering this in the command-line:
#CLASS {System|Directions} {"enable"}
#DIRECTION ns {n|north} n
#DIRECTION sn {s|south} s
#DIRECTION we {w|west} w
#DIRECTION ew {e|east} e
#DIRECTION ud {u|up} u
#DIRECTION du {d|down} d
#CLASS {System|DirectionsDiag} {"enable"}
#DIRECTION hl {nw|northwest} nw
#DIRECTION jk {ne|northeast} ne
#DIRECTION kj {sw|southwest} sw
#DIRECTION lh {se|southeast} se
