you'd need to ask me for an updated core that doesn't remove some of the essential information that the mapper relies on

I'm very curious to know how you embedded the map into a miniconsole! I cant' seem to find the code in the package, though. Mind helping me out?

function mk_create_map()
WindowWidth, WindowHeight = getMainWindowSize()
global_map_height = ((WindowHeight-gui_border_top)/4)*3
createMapper( getMainConsoleWidth()+5+gui_border_left-15, gui_border_top+5, WindowWidth-(getMainConsoleWidth()+gui_border_left+5), global_map_height )
end
function mk_map_resize()
mk_create_map()
end
Unlike the other miniconsole create functions, createMapper(xpos,ypos,width, height) also repositions and resizes the map on every call. createMiniConsole/createLabel only do this on the first call. This is why it can be used to resize the mapper.

No. They're custom designed, not Mudlet supplied.

"getMainConsoleWidth()" is a new function that calculates the actually used width of the main console depending on the chosen font size + wrap width to maximize the size of the map + chat windows.

I don't seem to have any luck at all. I've tried all the troubleshooting tips and I'm still left with a blank map area and an error saying Target room cannot be found in map db. when I click inside of it.
EDIT: Can ATCP interfere? I tried on Imperian rather than Lusternia where I have no system, and it worked fine.
