I upgraded to 6.38 and am now having wierd output from my a few of my macros and aliases. Here is an example of what my output to my screen in is 6.37a on one of them:

<282/250> ts
<282/250> You have 282/282hp, and 250/250sp.

Short and sweet just like I like it. Here is what same macro looks like under 6.38:

<282/247> ts
<282/247>
<282/247>
<282/250>
<282/250>
You have 282/282hp, and 250/250sp.

Lots of extra spaces, spammy.. no me gusta.

Here is the macro:

#SEND {order liqueur}
#SEND {take shot from table}
#SEND {drink shot}
#SEND {drop glass}
#SEND {hp}
#echo ts

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Brian

Try turning off the new 'EOR/GA newline' option on the 'Emulation' Page in the preferences dialog.

Which Mud is that by the way?

On v6.38, do the following:

#DEBUG test.txt trace.txt

and then run your macro/aliases that cause the incorrect "spam" to be displayed. Then exit zMUD and send me both the test.txt and the trace.txt files as email attachments. This will allow me to see exactly what the MUD is sending that is causing this problem. I'd really like to figure this out before the next version if you can email this quickly to me, thanks.

(Normally you should be posting this to the BETA FORUM, but since I need the information above, I'll leave this thread in the normal forum so you can find it)

Lady C. that worked thanks for the assist. I just sent off the files to Zugg as he requested.

The mud is called Everdark. It's at everdark.org port 3000. Been playing it for almost 10 years.

The new version seems to work fine. When I use your alias on everdark, I get the output:

What?
>
There is no table here.
>
What?
>
You do not have a glass.
>
You have 50/50hp, and 50/50sp.
>

The prompts are on their own lines because this MUD is using the EOR/GA prompt detection stuff, which causes non-commands to be printed on their own separate lines. If you turn off the new EOR/GA option in the emulation page, then you get:

> ts
What?
> There is no table here.
> What?
> You do not have a glass.
