New Mudlet profiles come with a package: generic_mapper

DDoes your profile have that?
DThat's neat. What game is it?
Dohhh, I've heard of that. Cool!
DDoes their MDSP also give a room number?
Dthey provide room info over msdp? I didn't remember that being true when I looked before. nice.

DI mean, maybe, maybe. We'll get there.

DUhh what's the addr/port?
Doh nevermind
Dit's in the banner
DWe have no secrets here. But some knowledge... changes... a person.
DOh my Gods that font is terrible to read
DI literally just scanned over it
Dtank you
DWell, I want to be able to help you with all that
D@Eraene yeah, I agree
Dbut I gotta work with what I got
DI tend to think of it more as the mapper has two parts, the c++ part which handles displaying the map, pathfinding, and the like, and the lua part which is reponsible for getting the information from the game to the mapper.
Dbut that's not any easier to explain to people necessarily
D
DI mean you can call it an aardvaark if you want, idgas
DI can't speak for anyone else, but I try not to get particularly pedantic about that. Especially since I often don't end up helping folks with the mapping stuff
Danyway @albulak actually reading the generic mapping script might help out a lot. I'm not certain if it's the right answer for this is that script, because you've got distinct data coming through. I think you can grab it via sendMSDP("REPORT", "ROOM_VNUM") ?I'm not super experienced with MSDP.
DActually a serious question: is there a wiki page that describes the process of making a mapping script, ie what is important and what steps need to be taken?
D@Gomcha/Leigheas this game specifically uses ROOMVNUM, sorry to not mention I got it figured out !
