Sure. Use LPMUD and my mapping script (https://github.com/Chris7/3k-Scripts). The only part you need to change is the triggers to recognize the room information to however you want to declare them.

Pick whatever driver you want:

I added a few new things today:
1) tmap config has a coordinateMap option which will just assume you are doing everything correctly.
2) some better output messages for room conflicts
3) tmap merge <direction> will merge your currently occupied room to the one in the given direction.

It's up to you what you reveal to players. You can use LPMUD, DIKU, SMAUG, etc. and just codify the information you want to give players. There are existing scripts for LPMUDs for Mudlet.

Mgrommet: You gave me an idea, I'll throw in a configure that is coordinate based on. This will actually help with areas that have changing descriptions (ravenloft/der'thalas/ant/spidercaves). Though for places like Science with static descriptions, it's probably something like your room short/desc/...

I'm not sure what you are trying to do. It looks like you have a display that resembles rooms & connections. What is wrong with it? What should it look like?

You can use "" as a parent to have it be null. You can also look into addMapMenu.

The currently selected rooms are by default passed.

If you are looking for a fairly complete mapper that works off muds which do not have room ids/prebuilt maps, you might want to check out my mapper for 3kingdoms (https://github.com/Chris7/3k-Scripts)

I'm betting the room capture done with cmud is different, hence why the mapper is thinking they are distinct rooms. You can use the updateroom alias or just use connect stubs to fix it.

The spacing is user definable through tmap config. I use large room sizes so it looks fine on my mapper, though it might be good to set it to a delta of 2 by default instead of 8.

Are you using the latest mapper as well (from github)?
