Setting up the automapper

Post by Rohgard »

I am lost with the automapper. Could someone please tell me how to set it up?

This is how a typical roomdescription in my mud looks like:

South Wharf Road
  You are standing just west of Common at the southern Wharf of
Manetheren. People mill about here at an alarming rate; merchants
leading guildmen to ships, and sailors unloading net loads of fish by the
ton. A depressed little wooden shack can be seen just to the north,
held up by a web of netting and rope. The road to the warehouse
district lies to the south.
[ n e s w ]
A supercilious Seanchan noble has washed ashore here, looking lost. [ -1000 ]
......High Lord Trehydraad glows with a bright light!
Brellin the harbormaster, a seasoned warrior, stands here smoking his pipe. [ 200 ]

<599H 659M 278V 1X 08:24:01 100S>



- The title of the room is in a different color than the rest of the description.
- The second row (first line of room description) is indented (somehow it doesnt show here).
- The last line is the prompt.

I tried to set it up myself but it wont recognize the exits and it always takes the first line for
the room name which sometimes is wrong.

As colour can be used to identify the room name I guess it just needs configuring somehow (the automapper is not in my skill-set area right now). I guess the exits can be probably be picked out by a regular expression.
