OK, I'm waiting for the Aradhul Road update I sent to maybe add some more mapping. I did some time in the labrynth, (Minotaur warrior area) and did some testing. Seems the rooms always go to the same room, per direction, so it SHOULD be mappable, no?

First thing's first, for Tillmen's benefit, here's what I did to the Aradhul Road shit.

Room[10815].wayto['10821'] = StringProc.new("resolve = Spell[9704];resolve.cast if resolve.known? && resolve.affordable? && !resolve.active?; if (haste = Spell[506]) and haste.known? and haste.affordable? and not haste.active?; haste.cast; end; empty_hands; move 'go water'; waitrt?")

Hmm.... minor feature request:

As ;mapmap looks at every item seen in Also here:, can it check for players? It's trying to go to every player in a room, which is spammy and potentially annoying to other characters.

Maybe check for /^(He|She) appears to be.*/

Done... I think. It shouldn't actually be looking at players. If it really is, then I didn't do anything to fix that.

When it looks at the objects in the room, it grabs any object ids that show up in the next second, which includes players scratching their butts or whatever. With the tricky, almost anti-mapping tactics mostly seen in Illistim, I didn't know what else to do.

It should now compare the ids it finds to the players in the room, and ignore them if they match.

I don't know if it's something weird with EG, but it definitely looked at players, and then tried to go/climb them. I know 'go player' has messaging that you walk up to them.. I hope that 'climb' doesnt.

Quick log; no names changed to protect the innocent:

Regardless, thank you for the update. I think someone else finished the SE corner that I missed due to aborting, but I will check again later.

[Feywrot Mire, Bald Cypress Arc]

[mapmap]>location

In the midst of the bald cypress trees littering the shore and the shallow, murky water, a single, massive buttonwood rises up, its cracked trunk thick, its many bare branches reaching in every direction. Faint and distant, the sound of slowly dripping water drifts through the swamp. A young boy sits on a rhimar chest on the bank, his gaze locked on a murky dark pool. You also see a ribbon-tied dried chamomile bouquet, a strand of glossy black mournblooms, some hickory scented lamp oil, a rotten and reeking tongue, some currant scented lamp oil, the Lissanne disk, a decaying severed finger, a thick knot of hempen rope, a sinew-bound dried crow's foot, some white sage scented lamp oil, a tattered drab grey feather, some mulberry scented lamp oil, some wisteria scented lamp oil, a torn dirty blue blanket, a length of rusted metal wire, a length of rotted rope, a broken glass vial, some vanilla scented lamp oil, a rotten and reeking tongue and a hastily scratched wood sign.
Also here: Archales, High Lady Lissanne, Galenok, Kinslar
Obvious paths: north, southwest
A young boy heads over to Lissanne and speaks with her briefly before handing her a slender silver steel garrote.
You carefully survey your surroundings and guess that your current location is the Feywrot Mire or somewhere close to it.

With a wide growth that looks like ten or eleven trunks folded into one and ready to spill out from the inside, the trunk of the buttonwood is massive. Green growth sprouts from the thick, cracked bark from just above the root's crown to where the trunk branches out into several limbs. A sprinkling of leaves showers the tree's branches, but for the most part, they have fallen away, leaving the giant bare.

You see High Lady Lissanne Drakefang the Scourge.
She appears to be a Half-Elf from Ta'Vaalor.
She is short and appears to be in the bloom of youth. She has red lash-framed gold-flecked jade green eyes and soft, creamy white skin. She has knee-length, deep red hair drawn back from her face and bound in place by a carved polished ivory diadem set with a shadowy black wisp-carved diamond. She has a heart-shaped face, a small nose and slightly pointed ears.
She has some delicately curved black vaalin hoops set along the slender tips of her pointed ears, a thin black vaalin spike in her right eyebrow, a thin black vaalin stud in her right nostril, an exquisitely inked imp tattoo on her wrist, and a chain of intricate runes tattoo on her ankle.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a slender silver steel garrote in her right hand.
She is wearing an intricate firestone band, a pair of smudged oval reading spectacles, a thin softened black leather choker snugly fastened with a delicate crystal buckle, a simple ebon locket, a silk-lined ivory velvet cloak, a braided black spidersilk harness, a pale ivory tote, an exquisite black leather bodysuit lined with soft velvet, a trio of black vaalin wristlets, a narrow platinum wedding ring cradling a dragonsbreath sapphire solitaire, a soft silk pack, and some black high-heeled sandals with ivory ankle ties.

[mapmap]>look #-10465804

It is difficult to get a good look at Galenok due to the number of mirror images of him nearby.
You see Galenok Drakefang the Bard Laureate.
He appears to be a Giantman.
He is tall and appears to be middle-aged. He has intensely vivid pewter-flecked sapphire blue eyes and warm sun-bronzed skin. He has thick, finger-combed golden blonde hair with sun-streaked highlights that falls in a tousled mass to his shoulders. He has a neatly trimmed beard.
He has a half-elven woman and drake tattoo on his arm.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing an intricate firestone band, a shadowy silver-starred barrier, a glossy black wight mane knapsack, a tufted pale grey rabbit fur mantle backed in charcoal satin, a sleeveless ebon wool tunic fettered with iron buckles, some thick leather gauntlets reinforced with mithril studs, a broad brushed platinum wedding band channel-set with baguette dragonsbreath sapphires, a deep black leather pouch, an ashen doeskin kilt clasped with a heavy silver chain, and some steel-toed cracked black leather boots.

[mapmap]>look #-11002682

You see Sulros.
He appears to be an Elf.
He is tall and appears to be in the prime of life. He has bright golden eyes and tanned skin. He has short, curly dark blonde hair. He has an angular face and sharp pointed ears.
He is in good shape.
He is holding a black vultite round shield in his left hand.
He is wearing an onyx-inlaid platinum ring, a plain gold ring, a crystal amulet, a pair of brown suede gloves, a grey wolf hide cloak, a loose leaf brown linen shirt with natural suede cording, some black elven stalking leathers fastened with polished eahnor buckles, a black spidersilk hunting pack, an oiled leather weapon harness, a slender case formed from blocks of black willow and modwir, a folded doeskin supply pouch branded with a modwir leaf, some soft roan doeskin trousers, and some polished black leather boots.

[mapmap]>look #-10322554

A young boy heads over to Galenok and speaks with him briefly before handing him a tiny enruned mithril warding charm.
You see Archales Sur-Rocine the Gem Trader.
He appears to be a Half-Elf from Ta'Ardenai.
He is taller than average and appears to be mature. He has scintillating aster opals for eyes and nut brown skin. He has shoulder-length, lustrous blue-black hair that is rumpled into a shaggy mess with bits of emerald shards sticking out of it at odd angles. He has a snarling ironwood wolf mask over his face and deep laugh lines. He has a rusted iron hook for a hand.

Roadblock...

here's the dilema, maybe someone has a solution.

There's 3 entrances to Mistydeep River. The northernmost is the swimming hole, the middle is the boat dock, and the southernmost is near the cemetery.

The challenges:

Once you have a boat, you're stuck with a boat until you bring it back to the dock. The boat can't enter the swimming area.

If you are swimming, you have to "confirm" the movement into certain rooms. (Just an annoyance)

Water Walking might or might not cause bad things on the river...

The game's code for the river has some known bugs that are almost "impossible" to escape. I'm gunna stew on this for a day, and whatever it is... I'm sending to Tillmen for his denial. (lol)

MAPPING R HARD

11-29-2011, 02:57 PM

If anyone has any Shattered mapping aspirations, feel free. The holiday season caught up with me before I could get that area working "bug free." It's half assed right now, and I just won't put Tillmen through that... I have saved some extensive notes on the area and plan to get that area working eventually... (I'll probably try to add it to both Shattered and Prime at the same time.)

Sorry to have monopolized the "mapping" for so long without producing results. I didn't expect to run into some of the shit that came up, including a bug in the game that I REALLY didn't feel like scripting around, and equally as much didn't feel like trying to duplicate.

Happy Holidays everyone! :club:

I have drawn (by hand) a map of the invasion area, which I sent to Maetriks, who made it look all pretty and shit. Unless someone objects, I'd like to update that for those in prime who wish to check that area out before it closes in a couple weeks.

Once I get the word, it shouldn't take me long to add the map to Narost, and do all that fun shit.

Okay so I finished updating the map database with the entirety of the Erythos island thingamabob. The only thing I didn't map is the nexus portal which drops you off at random locations, sometimes at krag slopes, sometimes near solhaven. Since i'm not really sure how to map that I just didn't add that one wayto.

The swimming portion of the map has haste, sigil of resolve, and water walking casting logic.

I'm attempting to map the empath guilds of Plat, but I keep running into various errors. Most likely I'm doing it wrong, but I don't know what.

I've followed the steps given in the initial post, and it appears to start mapping fine, but eventually it will move to a new room and I'll get an error message of [mapmap: 4: move appeared to succeed, but not really.]

I've seen this in the Landing, Solhaven, Icemule, Ta'Vaalor and Ta'Illistim guilds. Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?

Gretchen

That message means there's two identical rooms right next to each other. It's probably fixable, but it depends on the situation and requires some cleverness and more knowledge of the map database. Does one of the rooms have something permanate in the "You also see" line that's not in the other?

03-22-2012, 05:31 PM

so when I mapped the sorcerer guilds, I KNOW I tagged rooms in every single guild. to my horror, I noticed the other day that most tags had been deleted or lost somehow. how would that happen?

before I take the map and update it again, I want to make sure that won't happen again. i put a lot of effort into mapping the guilds so that each one would work with alchemy.lic and 725.lic.

i dont need that, though now that you mention it, I might make it work with narost just because I've never tried that before.

but no, the guilds themselves should all be mapped per se...that is...the rooms should all be recognized. it's only tags that are missing. like "sorcerer alchemy administrator", "sorcerer guild node", etc.

you can double-check me by doing this:
;e echo Room.current.find_all_nearest_by_tag('sorcerer guild node').inspect

I did it for every guild, but it's only showing 2 rooms right now.

I'm not certain how they would be identical. Their room descriptions were different in each case. For example:

[Empath Guild, Training Annex]
Twin sconces are set opposite one another on the north and south walls here, their dim flames casting long shadows down the hallway in both directions. The floor is composed of carefully chiseled granite blocks, each one set against the next at a slight angle, and the walls are polished marble blocks from floor to ceiling. You also see a training annex.
Obvious exits: east
[go2: travel time: 0:00:00]
--- Lich: go2 has exited.
[mapmap]>east
[Empath Guild]
A neatly tended courtyard is visible beyond the square glass panes of a pair of whitewashed doors set into the eastern wall. Along the opposite wall, a tapestry depicts the healing hands of Imaera cradling the world of Elanthia.
Obvious exits: northeast, southeast, west
[mapmap: 4: move appeared to succeed, but not really.]
[mapmap: Done. 6 rooms checked.]
--- Lich: mapmap has exited.

That's tricky. My next guess would be that two room number got combined that shouldn't have. Try ;e echo Room.current.inspect
in each room. It might show that both room descriptions have been attached to one room number. Otherwise, it could be some crappy Simu XML, which is not unheard of in guilds.

I know I did. because I did the guilds one at a time. meaning I tagged them as I went. map and tag landing, map and tag solhaven, etc etc.

that's so weird. I'll just do it again. tagging won't take long and I'd like to add the map coordinates anyway just because I've never tried doing that before.

so yeah, I'm working on the prime database. things I plan to add/mod:

1. gonna add sorcerer guild tags and make sure thats all mapped right.
2. twilight hall locker rooms in RR.
3. I've just been saving some changes in a file that have either been bug fixes or something to improve my experience. the most important one is a bug fix to the cutter to RR since it started moving more quickly; sometimes knaydl doesnt say anything before you get kicked off...so nothing triggers.

I could post all the script used to mod the various waytos but it's an eyebleed. promise I've tested them all.

Things I added while working on map database:
~tagged RR sorcerer guild, a few other new tags, and various other sorc guild tag fixes. it turns out there weren't many guild tags missing, just in the RR guild. so ignore previous posts about missing tags.
~when on the Live Bait waiting to get off, sometimes Knaydl didn't say anything, so you'd get booted off and go2 would hang forever. this is fixed.
~when waiting for Live Bait to arrive in Solhaven, the waitfor line was identical to the one in RR (ie it was NOT "glides up to the pier"), so it wouldnt board. it should be fixed now.
~twilight hall locker area mapped in RR now. go2 should work to go to and from.
~made sorcerer guilds work with narost. rather than upload an individual file for each guild, which would clutter the hell out of the narost map list, I just used the "compiled" map available on krakiipedia.
~made corrections to the aforementioned sorc guild map and renamed file.

Things that I am not sure the best way to fix or don't have the authority:
~make darkstone entry wayto be sure it is not using a valuable short sword.
~make go2/lich recognize failed move attempt when swimming to krolvin tunnels in RR. messaging is this: "You start to swim through the water but come up gasping for air."

I'm sorry whoever added those, but I couldn't figure out why it was doing that. I'm sure we can come up with another way to do what you want without using those tags.

I am currently having the same problem as Nilandia but this is for the Artificer Tower in illy(room 616, go door). There are only 3 rooms there that a non member(like me) can get too, with the one on the top being a workshop(why it would be nice to have it mapped). Goes one room(2 if i start outside where it is currnetly mapped) and then says

[mapmap: 4: move appeared to succeed, but not really.]

This is me moving to the top of the tower from outside:

[Ta'Illistim, Aerie Wey]
The road dips around a high tower, set flush against the exterior city wall. The tower, raised as it is above the crenelations of the wall, looks down over both the interior of Ta'Illistim and the cliffside upon which the Shining City rests. Atop its spire, a dome of sapphire tiles stands out against the night sky, a spot of blue in a star-dappled black tableau.
Obvious paths: northeast, northwest
>g door
[Artificer Tower]
Steps mark the middle of the chamber, spiraling both upwards to a higher floor and downwards into darkness. The round room itself is walled in stone, its floors covered in layered sapphire carpets and its entirety lit by glass globes suspended from filamentous silver chains. An arched door leads outwards.
Obvious exits: none
>l steps
The stairs lead upwards by means of a spiraling staircase and downwards by means of a spiraling stairway.

>cli stairwa
A member of the Sapphire Guard steps out in front of you. He politely but firmly denies you entry, saying, "Access to these chambers is reserved for Artificers only."
>cli staircase
You climb up a spiraling staircase.
[Artificer Tower]
Benches sit flush against the walls, forming a rounded ring of seating. In the center of the room, steps lead both up and down. The stone floor is covered with a thickly plush silver carpet, worked with a design of linear sapphire peacocks.
Obvious exits: none
>l steps
The stairs lead upwards by means of a spiraling stairway and downwards by means of a spiraling staircase.

>cli stairway
You climb up a spiraling stairway.
[Artificer Tower]
The topmost chamber of the tower benefits from the structure's domed roof, opening up the space to twice the height of the rooms below. A ring of clerestory windows placed just beneath the cap of the dome itself let in a light tinged by their dark blue glass panes, a light which falls on the many banners and pennons hanging from the walls. In the center of the chamber, a stairway spirals downward.

You study your surroundings and use your keen knowledge of the arcane. It quickly becomes evident that this room is a magical workshop.

Here is mapmap having a go after i have cleared and set boundaries:

[Ta'Illistim, Aerie Wey]
The road dips around a high tower, set flush against the exterior city wall. The tower, raised as it is above the crenelations of the wall, looks down over both the interior of Ta'Illistim and the cliffside upon which the Shining City rests. Atop its spire, a dome of sapphire tiles stands out against the night sky, a spot of blue in a star-dappled black tableau.

I'm also having problems with mapmap. I've used mapmap before but never had this problem. I didn't use mapmap for my last updates, though. was awhile ago. I'm trying to map parts of FWI and this is what I get:

[Monsoon Jungle, Hillside Path]
Above the planks of a swollen and broken fence, a swarm of black flies hover in the air. A small cleared space develops into a muddy path leading upward, its track washed with pebbled gravel and littered with large green leaves. The fence itself stretches on towards the south. You also see a tiny red-eyed hedgehog.

[Mist Harbor, Southern Walk]
A tall fence continues to run southward, separating the dirt pathway from what lies beyond it. At the top of the fence, scratch marks can be seen just along the rim. Swarms of flies float in and out, searching through the dark foliage that creeps along the ground.

mapped the area shown here, with correct timetos for pushing the boats upstream/downstream:
http://www.krakiipedia.org/w/images/3/3f/Mist_Harbor_Wilds.png

I did NOT add that area to Narost. not enough people go there for that to be useful. go2 will work...that's enough i think. also tagged the sunfist taskmaster as "sunfist", and the "sunfist superintendent" as that; this is in-line with previous taggers.

this also includes the changes in my prior posts.

will send you the file now Tillmen.

thanks!

Tillmen

I can't use the last couple of map databases sent to me, so consider the Prime map database uploaded. The last couple of map databases dropped about 384 rooms and 752 directions. Probably from not downloading the latest map database before starting to map.

Philiater

04-17-2012, 04:30 PM

i bet it's bc i had two accounts logged in at once. i probably accidentely did a Map.save on the wrong game window when switching between browser, narost, and my two game windows.

at some point I'll do the sorcerer guilds again and part of FWI, but not the riverboat parts of it...that was a pita.

im glad I posted everything or it'd take forever to make those changes again.

but not for another few weeks. too busy out of game.

Hey Tillmen... here's a "submission" for you... if you'd want to add it.

It's a cutthroat check... I'm sure you know where to paste these into infomon.

$infomon_cutthroat = false
def checkcutthroat
$infomon_cutthroat
end
def cutthroat?
$infomon_cutthroat
end

elsif line =~ /^.*?slices deep into your vocal chords\!\.$|^All you manage to do is cough up some blood.$/
respond "** CUTTHROAT **"
$infomon_cutthroat = true
elsif line =~ /^\s*The horrible pain in your vocal chords subsides as you spit out the last of the blood clogging your throat\.$/
respond "** DROP CUTTHROAT **"
$infomon_cutthroat = false

I'm not sure if the "slices deep into your throat" line is matching, but the cough up some blood part does... It's been working for me for a few weeks now.

Tillmen

04-27-2012, 10:55 PM

Hey Tillmen... here's a "submission" for you... if you'd want to add it.

Added. The "slices deep into your vocal chords" line wasn't matching because it was looking for a period after the exclamation point. You're totally in the wrong thread.

I was wondering if mapping the inn tables in TV would be a problem, I just found it weird that no one had already mapped it so I figured their must be some reason and I didn't want to step on any toes.

Tillmen

07-19-2012, 09:51 PM

There shouldn't be any problem with mapping the tables. They're not mapped because the mapmap script can't map them automatically, and also my characters are probably not allowed in there.

Wyildarren

07-19-2012, 11:16 PM

Is there a command to map the tables individually or is that not done with mapmap?

While I have not been working with the maps, I wanted to let those that are know that something is amiss at Voln at the landing. The room numbers are jumping all over the place in the tasks hallway and multiple rooms are showing the same room number. It has broken a few scripts using ;go2 that were previously working a few weeks ago.

GodSatan

08-28-2012, 12:32 AM

I'm not 100% sure I'm doing it right, but can something like this be added for the Shattered map db:

;e Room[10781].wayto['18150'] = StringProc.new(“
pillars = [ 'first', 'second', 'third', 'fourth' ]
$regexes = {
:pillar717 => /dark eye/,
:pillar704 => /hazy black/,
:pillar705 => /slate grey/,
:pillar701 => /blood-drop/,
:pillar703 => /dark cloud/,
:pillar702 => /radiating circle/,
:nextpillar => /blurry and hard to look at/,
}
def knock_knock(x, spell_num)
result = Spell[spell_num].cast("#{x} pillar")
if result =~ /Spell Hindrance/
Spell[spell_num].cast("#{x} pillar")
end
end
start_script("go2",["10781"])
wait_while { running?("go2")}
pillars.each { |x|
fput "look at #{x} pillar"
while line = get
if line =~ $regexes[:pillar717]
knock_knock(x, 717)
break
end
if line =~ $regexes[:pillar704]
knock_knock(x, 704)
break
end
if line =~ $regexes[:pillar705]
knock_knock(x, 705)
break
end
if line =~ $regexes[:pillar701]
knock_knock(x, 701)
break
end
if line =~ $regexes[:pillar703]
knock_knock(x, 703)
break
end
if line =~ $regexes[:pillar702]
knock_knock(x, 702)
break
end
if line =~ $regexes[:nextpillar]
break
end
end
}'”)

subzero

08-28-2012, 01:19 AM

You could cut it down by dropping the $regexes hash. Just use those values there at the line matches. Also probably wanna do if/elsif when you check the pillars:

;e Room[10781].wayto['18150'] = StringProc.new(“
pillars = [ 'first', 'second', 'third', 'fourth' ]

def knock_knock(x, spell_num)
result = Spell[spell_num].cast("#{x} pillar")
if result =~ /Spell Hindrance/
Spell[spell_num].cast("#{x} pillar")
end
end

start_script("go2",["10781"])
wait_while { running?("go2")}
pillars.each { |x|
fput "look at #{x} pillar"
while line = get
if line =~ /dark eye/
knock_knock(x, 717)
break
elsif line =~ /hazy black/
knock_knock(x, 704)
break
elsif line =~ /slate grey/
knock_knock(x, 705)
break
elsif line =~ /blood-drop/
knock_knock(x, 701)
break
elsif line =~ /dark cloud/
knock_knock(x, 703)
break
elsif line =~ /radiating circle/
knock_knock(x, 702)
break
elsif line =~ /blurry and hard to look at/
break
end
end
}

GodSatan

08-29-2012, 10:20 AM

Thanks for the idea to clean it up and shorten it, looks good, but I did also just realize that I needed a case for the pillar not being there, sometimes it takes 4 pillar casts to get in, sometimes only 3:

;e Room[10781].wayto['18150'] = StringProc.new(“
pillars = [ 'first', 'second', 'third', 'fourth' ]
def knock_knock(x, spell_num)
result = Spell[spell_num].cast("#{x} pillar")
if result =~ /Spell Hindrance/
Spell[spell_num].cast("#{x} pillar")
end
end
pillars.each { |x|
fput "look at #{x} pillar"
while line = get
if line =~ /dark eye/
knock_knock(x, 717)
break
elsif line =~ /hazy black/
knock_knock(x, 704)
break
elsif line =~ /slate grey/
knock_knock(x, 705)
break
elsif line =~ /blood-drop/
knock_knock(x, 701)
break
elsif line =~ /dark cloud/
knock_knock(x, 703)
break
elsif line =~ /radiating circle/
knock_knock(x, 702)
break
elsif line =~ /blurry and hard to look at/
break
elsif line =~ /could not find/
break
end
end
}

Also, I took the g02 out of the stringproc, since for the wayto, you'd already be in the necessary room to start with. Any word on this being able to be added Tillmen, or do I need to "check out" the db and try to save it in there myself? I still cant make it actually work as a stringproc in the wayto, but it does work as a standalone script.

This is the "learn how to map areas that aren't mapped" thread, so I'd say you're in the right place.

The only thing you can't effectively map is rooms with identical descriptions. The house locker annex of the Solhaven warehouse is a good example. Also instanced rooms (like the LM workshops, locker rooms, etc).

I'll give it a shot. I mapped the ZL, Solhaven, RR, and.. well, a number of guilds for other professions when figuring it out a few years ago.

I think I'll add the Four Winds halls, too.. had some newbies trying to find their way to get the teleportation jewelry

Question to Tillmen: I recall an issue with the [I think] Empath guild in Ta'Vaalor, where the rooms had identical descriptions, but the exits listed after "You also see:" were unique. IIRC, You said you would look at ways to determine what items after "You also see:" were unique part of the room, versus junk on the floor. (I think checking if the item id was a negative number identifies the permanent, not removable items). Did you ever update this, or was it not worth the effort?

Thanks,

Or... maybe I'm not?

Something's wonky with ;mapmap. I haven't used it in a while, but following the same directions on the first page, it's getting stuck on the first room with :'move appeared to succeed but not really'.

I'm trying to map the Zul Logth warrior's guild; I set the boundary at the entrance, but get the same error regardless of where I start in the guild (and I tried a half dozen different rooms). It moves, seems to think it failed, and then tries another object in the first room before dying.

Keeping guard over the walkway are several marble statues garbed in some burnished mithril armor. A narrow path branches off towards a thin steel marker and subsequently, a small limestone shed. Colorful fungus abounds in carefully tended beds that border the expansive courtyard to the east.

A thin layer of rocky debris blankets the floor, but distinct boot tracks mark the most heavily used areas of the shed. Musty odors and the scent of oil hang in the air. Secured against the wall is an iron tool rack, fully equipped with implements needed by guild members. You also see a metal bin and a narrow staircase.

So, Teras map seems to be fucked up (in Shattered at least) So... I'm gunna tinker around a bit, I think.

remapped Teras bank, also removed the extra 3 seconds on the timetos at the statue. (Bank is tagged)

Not sure of any other rooms in prime, but the Teras bank apparently had a room added, and the bank itself is now unmapped once you get inside.

Not sure of any other rooms in prime, but the Teras bank apparently had a room added, and the bank itself is now unmapped once you get inside.

As far as I know, when lich attempts to determine where you are (in terms of the map database), it requires that all aspects of the room are the same (paths, title, description, etc). So if something gets added, a typo gets fixed, etc, lich will report that you're in no-man's land. The room isn't exactly unmapped. You can say, add the original room ID for that room as a wander boundary and it will work fine (since the waytos from the neighboring rooms are still valid). The only thing that's broken is the map database lookup while you're in the room. You can use go2 to get to it, you just can't use go2 to exit it.

I'm just assuming that's the case for the Teras bank. I've got no idea.

Sounds about right. I just went and recounted what I did earlier to fix the db on one of my computers on another desktop, figured out what was necessary and what wasn't. Try this until the db gets updated:

repo download mapmap
trust mapmap
go to the room outside the teras bank
;map clear
;map lazy
;map boundary
go doors
;e Room.current_or_new
;map map

That 'fix' isn't likely to remain after you log out. It's more a temporary thing until Tillmen gets around to updating the dbs. That said, if logging out did cause the issue, it might be that updater is 'updating' your map (reverting, in this case) when you log back in. There's a way to prevent updater from updating particular files, so you could edit the updater script to prevent automatically updating the map. I believe if you make this change on line 152, you should be good:

Settings['map'] = true to Settings['map'] = false

wandererjs

If I can get ;mapmap working in Zul, I will add the Teras room as well. I planned on addding all of the Four Wind Isles halls as well, as they currently aren't mapped in prime.

If you really want a temporary map, add an ';e Map.save' after you map it. The change isn't saved locally. In a normal map session, your local copy is saved after ;mapmap fix.

I have a theory as to what broke in ;mapmap (wasn't trusted anymore, but doesn't give you an error at that stage), that I'll check on my next pass through ZL.

Kramble

03-18-2013, 03:20 PM

That was my thought, but this was without logging out. I didn't log though so couldn't go back and see if I had updated for some reason. Either way I just kicked it over to Illistim for a bit. No big deal, appreciate the help though.

Something is definitely broken with ;mapmap, but I'm still not sure if it's due to a change in ;mapmap, the Map object, or something about Zul Logoth.

In short, if it has to map 2 or more rooms that were previously unknown (room id of 4 Uberbar), it reports an error of 'appeared to succeed, but not really'

It can map 1 'new' room, as the adjacent room will be nil, and won't match the original room, but it dies if it a) moves two or more rooms away from the start, already-mapped room, or b) you start mapping in an unknown room. Both rooms are nil, so it thinks it hasn't moved.

at:

if mapmap_move(option)
adj_room = Room.current
if room == adj_room
echo "#{room.id}: move appeared to succeed, but not really."
map_history.puts "#{room.id}: move appeared to succeed, but not really."
break

If Tillmen doesn't have an easy answer, I'll poke at it more later... maybe add a sleep after the move (if it's pulling the data from the Room window, and there's a delay in updating), or try something educational like creating the Room objects and linking them manually. Manual labor is educational the first time, right, and makes you appreciate what the script is doing for you.

That line is within an if statement that only runs if there are no settings. Changing it now won't do anything. If anyone wants to disable map updates, you can do ;updater map off

DragonRealms map database is uploaded.

A couple notes: There were 53 wayto's with a missing timeto. Without a timeto, the go2 cannot find a path between the two rooms, even though there's a wayto telling it how to move between the two rooms.

There were a number of StringProcs used as a wayto when it appears a string would have worked. When there's a StringProc movement, go2 lets all the typeahead movements finish before starting the StringProc movement. If the movement can't fail (as I suspect StringProc.new("move 'go exit'") can't fail), you're slowing down go2 without any benefit. You could just use Room[#].wayto['#'] = 'go exit' instead (and of course Room[#].timeto['#'] = 0.2).

If the movement can fail, like StringProc.new("move 'go door'"), then a StringProc may be the way to go, because it will recognize the failure quicker and then attempt to open the door and retry.

The stringproc works if you have a ticket... even if it's in a closed container. What doesn't work is the buying part... so, buy_ticket.proc doesn't seem to be working... but does when it's standalone.

SO, a simple ;e $go2_shattered_portal = true will toggle them on, and $go2_shattered_portal = false will toggle them off.

I ended up not having time to do any significant mapping. I am compiling a list of unmapped places and I will get to it soon.

Geijon, I do not have a character in Phoenix, so I would need an escort inside and someone to stick around for a few minutes in case I end up back outside.

Let me know if you want me to do this.

DragonRealms map database is uploaded.

Some notes about the database:

There were 5 wayto's without matching timeto's. The pathfinding algorithm won't find a path between two rooms without a timeto, so the wayto will never get used. I added the default timeto (0.2) to these paths, which was probably wrong.

There were 26 timeto's without matching wayto's. I'm not exactly sure what this will do to the movement script. I assume it will appear to freeze when attempting to use the non-existant wayto. I deleted all of these.

There was.. um.. one of these..
Room[8625].wayto["8268"] = StringProc.new("A fledgling forest gryphon rakes a set of large, sharp claws at Mundy. ")
I don't know what that is. It would probably cause the movement script to loop indefinitely while displaying an error. I deleted it.

1 room had a path to itself. That won't cause anything bad to happen, but I still don't like it!

There were a large number of StringProc movements that only did a single fput. In general, if a command results in you moving to the next room, you should use move instead of fput.

So instead of:
Room[1].wayto['2'] = StringProc.new("fput 'go door'")
you could do:
Room[1].wayto['2'] = StringProc.new("move 'go door'")

The move method should be less prone to error. For example, if that door is closed, it will try to open it and try 'go door' again. Or if needed, it'll do that weird double-retreat thing you DR people have. Also, fput will often not retry a command because it doesn't know what success looks like; it only knows what a handful of failures look like.

There are other StringProcs that don't appear to need to be StringProcs at all. For example:
Room[8637].wayto['8638'] = StringProc.new("fput 'se'")
should probably be:
Room[8637].wayto['8638'] = 'se'

Making it a StringProc causes go2 to wait for any typeahead movements to finish, which will slow you down a little. It will also prevent the auto-retreat (because it's an fput), which could slow you down a lot.

I think I'm going to take a break from ;alchemy and... map the sorcerer guild that aren't yet mapped in Shattered... and if I get around to it... also map Sorcerer's Isle. (No promises on Sorcerer's Isle.) Part of my "update" will be adding 10 seconds to the timetos through the Shattered portals. That should help keep from jumping towns for no good reason when you do stuff like, ;go2 pawnshop. I hope to have this sent to Tillmen sooner rather than later, like, within a day.

Gib

I had issues previously where my own personal ;go2 marks were interfering with the built-in targets used by ;go2. Basically the issue was... Whenever I used ;go2 bank I would always go to the same bank regardless of whichever was local. The only way this was found out was because of an issue similar to yours... Except mine was caused by the landing bank being destroyed and thus unreachable.

The issue itself may actually have nothing to do with the script itself... Just a thought worth checking out.

He's saying shattered has portals like in platinum to go between towns (due to the sparse population). So the route to a bank in another town may be shorter than the route to the local one. This would be a pain in the ass for shattered players who would have to add a check with basically every use of go2 to make sure they didn't end up in the wrong town (there's not usually a human there to notice the mistake). The map database isn't wrong, its correctness is just inconvenient. Increasing the timeto will cause go2 to compute the route to be longer, thereby avoiding it. It will also be short enough to not ruin intentional use of the portals. In your case, your custom targets just overrode the built-in targets/tags.

I understand what he was saying - but he did not state specifically if that solved the issue or not. It also makes zero sense that a bank in another town would be closer to a bank in the town you are in, regardless of the time-to between the portals.

Increasing the timeto will not fix the problem if the problem is related to your custom targets overriding the built-in targets. I was simply suggesting that he check this out as sometimes people forget they set something up for one reason or another.

Why a case like this impossible? You are in town 1. You are 20 rooms from that towns pawnshop. You are 2 rooms from a portal. The pawnshop in town 2 is 10 rooms from the portal. In the map database, all corresponding waytos are defined and their timetos are equal.

Agreed.

The timeto change seems to have helped. A day or so ago, I just turned off portal usage because the alchemy script, despite my tinkering, was still pulling the wrong note out after running to another town's alchemy shop. My big issue now is jars unphasing and causing encumbrance issues that prevent moving over things like the rope bridge. I cut the "travel time" down today and hope that helps... but at this point, I'm off topic and should be saying this in the alchemy thread.

What DaCapn said is totally true. The distance from the bank in Zul Logoth to the portal is like, 4 rooms. I've ended up there a few times unintentionally. Adding 10 seconds is basically adding 49 rooms (50 total) to go2's "shortest distance" algorithm. I might even change that timeto to 20 seconds just for some additional safety.

01-22-2014, 04:13 PM

So I found at least a couple issues in the submission I made to Tillmen.
Room 19834 => 6016 could be viewed as a shortcut through the guild.
Room 19859 => 10748 and 10859 => 10596 could also be viewed as shortcuts. (I know my sorc just used that to get to the Weald.)

I'd assume that making the timetos into the guild a StringProc with a profession check would be the easiest way to do that, but I forget how...

I THINK it's

;e Room[####].timeto['####'] = StringProc.new("if Char.prof =~ /sorcerer/i;0.2;else;nil;end")

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

There is a place that needs a fix - turning the ring to get into the kobold mine requires a free hand. Currently go2 doesn't do that. Is there a preferred way to do the mini script? Empty the left hand, the right hand? Sheath, stow? Basically it would be "stow whichever hand", "turn ring", "get thathanditem", but I don't know which way is the most common/best way.

Thoughts?

I have decided at this point not to mapmap the new-ish Darkstone Bay water area. If I'm not mistaken it would be the shortest route from the town of Wehnimer's Landing to the black sands (kappa area). If you don't have waterwalking you'll likely die, so that seems to be a bad combination.

Tillmen, is there a way to map it safely and see that it's NOT used as the path to the black sands?

Anne

03-04-2014, 02:56 PM

Also, there is a wonky spot that I can't seem to work with. It is in Burrow Way in the landing.

If you go2 7497, search, and go fissure, you will see the spot. It's a four-way junction that acts weird when I've tried to add it in the past. Maybe you can look at it sometime?

Mini-scripts are also needed when there are two identical rooms right next to each other. The solution might be as simple as StringProc.new("move 'east' while checkpaths.include?('e')"), but it can become quite complicated.

You'll notice that mapper is using the location verb.. a lot. There are two reasons for this. The one you might guess is that this information might eventually be used by bounty scripts. The other is to deal with duplicate rooms in different towns, such as the training cauldron room in most guilds. Using only the room title, description, and obvious exits/paths, you can't tell what town you're in, or what room you'll be in if you move out. But, knowing the results of the location verb of the room allows these rooms to get different room numbers and to be connected to the rest map database.

There is also a spot in the map database to save climate and terrain information for each room. At this point, I don't have a ranger and I'm not too worried about filling in that data.

Apologies as this question is probably asked before, but this thread has posts over a number of years, and I'm totally new to this.

I'm interested to improve the treatment of the Miasmal Forest mazes in River's Rest. The paths are static and do not change and the number of rooms are fixed. However, in general the rooms appear to be identical which greatly complicates the situation.

I mapped the Ghostly Trees late last fall, just finished the Spectral Mists. The Ghostly Trees has a total of 15 rooms. The Spectral Mists has 19. There are some stones and skulls both inside the maze and in some otherwise identical rooms leading into the mazes, which can help slightly to uniquely identify a handful of rooms.

For anyone curious how these kinds of maps look schematically, here is a crappy scan: http://goatface.org/files/ghostly-trees.pdf (1 is the skull, 2 is the stone) and http://goatface.org/files/spectral-mists.pdf (SK and ST are more clear)

Is there any way at all to fully implement this kind of map? I have a feeling since we know how many unique rooms and how they are connected it ought to be possible, and the question is if the difficulty level is a 10 out of 10, an 11 out of 10, or a 100 out of 10. As far as attempting to answer that question myself, I'm not sure how lich determines the present room, such that if a character logged out while in one of these mazes, or experienced lag while travelling, perhaps it could be impossible to determine what room they are in. In that case, we at least need to keep the same random solver which presently exists, but still in theory those issues shouldn't absolutely forbid mapping the area (and maybe we need to add an extra "fake" room which is the default determination for the room and uses the random solver to escape).

If a proper mapping is impossible, the system can still be improved I think. In particular, we can make a mini-script to go from each room outside the maze to another room outside the maze based on the known cardinal direction paths. This would at least mean that travelling which should involve movement between, say, four rooms, does not sometimes take twenty seconds with random guesses.

Feedback, insight, and/or guidance greatly appreciated.
