I get a message saying there is a new map to download.

When I try to download it through the Settings/Mapper, I get a "Connection refused." error. Is there a setting I can update to fix this?

click on the button there. Once you've updated, click here to remove the reminder.[ INFO ] - Map

Seems fine for me. What Mudlet version?

3.0.1 on OS X. Thanks for the feedback

Should have the required SSL (I think) library in the system but that would be my guess - don't forget you can download XML map files manually (if you know the right URL) and install them by hand now...!

I seem to remember that XML download from earlier days. Thanks for your reply.

Do you mean an SSL library that is installed in my OS X Library directory? Or a specific SSL file to be used by Mudlet that is installed in a Mudlet directory

Do you know how I convert the XML to a map.dat file?

Late 3.0.0 preview and Release 3.0.0 and later and development versions can now load the file use from a lua script (the ".xml", not case sensitive as MacOs isn't IIRC, file extension will trigger the alternate handling for XML files) or from the load map command on the map tab of the options dialogue - for this you may have to change the "Files of type" setting to "Xml map data":

Brilliant! Thanks for your help, SlySven!
