hey, things have been hectic for me. I just tried to take a look, but just at 6s in the directions above it tells me the room is too dark (the first time I go south).

What do I need to do/get to eliminate that message so I can finish mapping even up to the point of testing? heh

Demonnic,

Just checking in to make sure you have everything you need to check into look into this. Anything else I can do to help?

Thanks again,

Sorry, just been real busy, had to go to the dentist today for an abscessed tooth. I went just now and it looks like this teleports you around, giving the line

You are engulfed in an ivory mist and find yourself elsewhere!

Does it definitely move you to the direction your put in, or is it forcing movement elsewhere? May need to add that line to map ignore, but also each of these rooms look exactly alike. That being said, I'm testing a trigger which I think may make things a bit easier and will get back to you again soon once I've tested it in other places as well. This trigger does catch the second line of exits at least.

Demonnic,

This is no problem at all and a low priority. I am so sorry to hear about your tooth and hope al is well!

Yes, it does actually move you in that direct and does not port you somewhere differemt. It is an actual chessboard 8 X 8. I figured it would be the easiest place for you to test since there is no mobs that will agro you and lots of places wher there are two line exits with some that are one line.

Thank you for all your help!

ok, so you'll want to do "map ignore You are engulfed in an ivory mist and find yourself elsewhere!" so it doesn't think that's the room name. And try disabling the English Exits trigger and importing this one. Should be able to drag and drop it onto Mudlet after you download.

That may not fix every issue you have, and let me know if it goes wonky anywhere else on exits, but in my brief testing that trigger would catch them in a single or double line.

There's also folks on the discord who are better with the generic mapper than I am, if you run into much more it might not be a bad shout to join and ask there. If nothing else they may be faster to help than I've been able to be on this. heh
