Returning Aardwolf player after 10 years, previously used zmud.
Posted: Fri Mar 01, 2019 1:56 pm
10 years ago or so I played Aardwolf, at the time I used windows and ran zmud.
years ago I moved over to linux, now that I have returned to mudding I see that zmud/cmud are no longer under development.
Mudlet seems to be the most feature rich linux client, however when I first tried mapping in Aardwolf it seemed no rooms were created at all simply by turning the mapper on and moving around (which is what I was familiar with back when I used zmud/cmud)
I found a script "github: daagar/damp" that seems to get the mapper functioning for Aardwolf.
I was a mapping wizard back when I used zmud, I had over 95% of Aardwolf mapped and explored.
Onto my issue which is probably just a lack of understanding how things work in Mudlet.
Sometimes while mapping you might find you want to delete some rooms and remap them, when I did this, it remapped the rooms, but did not connect the connecting lines in the mapper, here is a picture to illustrate:
One thing I can remember from zmud, is it would do something similar to this when you delete a room and remap it, you had the ability to right click the room and select reload/remap from a menu or something like that, and it would look in the room and reload all info for that room, is there an ability similar to this?
Also I remember it was possibly to manually create the line connection between rooms in zmud, as well as change them to one way exits, how would I accomplish this?
I see when I right click on a room to open the menu, there is an option labeled "exits" but when I click it nothing happens, I suspect it is supposed to be opening a menu for me to modify exits or something to that extent.
I really appreciate any and all help.
