You can also use a different prompt, just make sure you alter the prompt trigger correctly:

Your standard prompt is:

%h/%HHp %m/%MMa %v/%VMv - T:%t $%g ±%a%d Tnl:%X Qt:%q%c

Your battle prompt is:

%h/%HHp %m/%MMa %v/%VMv T:%t $%g ±%a%d Tnl:%X Qt:%q%c[%b] [ Me: %pH/%PM/%NM]%c

Prompt trigger:

^\d+\/\d+\w+ \d+\/\d+\w+ \d+\/\d+\w+ \- \w+\: \d+ \w+\:\d+ \w+\:\d+

Other Tips

• When creating maps, don't allow zMud to create your ups or downs. instead when walking into a room that has an up/down exit, use the room creation tool and manually make the up or down room, hover your mouse over it and find it's #. Then in the room your in, edit the links and click the #, insert the # from the new room and then walk into it and reload room description.

• OR

• Walk into like an up, then press CTRL+M and click the down button and OK, drag the room to where you like and continue on. (THANKS HUMPTON!!! YOU ROCK)

This will keep your maps on one layer, which makes it MUCH nicer to navigate especially on areas with LOTS of levels.. like Ultima.

• USE the "Shortname" feature, right click a room, goto the Other tab, put a single word "favorite" name into the shortname box. Later you can simply #WALK name (or "go name" with run alias) to return there.

• Use the following alias to "run":
#ALIAS go {#VARIABLE path %walk( %1)
path = %replace(%replace(%replace( @path, ., "run "),")",");run "),"run (",".(")
#IF (%ends(@path,";run ")) {path = %leftback(@path,5)}
path = %replace(@path,";run ;.",";.")
#SHOW |@path|
#EXECUTE @path
#TELEPORT %1}

• Avoid using #TELEPORT for your portals and non-maze exits. It doesn't work well with the "run" workaround.

• When making aliases to places... use the shortname instead of room #, this is for later when you screw up and your map becomes altered... the # will change.. but the shortname can remain the same.

• Here is how *I* got area portals working correctly with the mapper, 1st i made a goto alias,

#ALIAS goto {home;%1}

then i entered said portal, got the mapper on the same room, and set the portal to "goto portal_alias_name" without quotes... like goto pwow for War of Wizards. I also set the shortname of the room to pwow, i.e. the alias name. Now using my "go" alias i can type: go pwow and if the portal is enabled it will simple equip and enter, if im too low, it will "run" there.

• Auto portals and your level... on remort, i have an alias "portal_reset" that does:

#CALL %portalenable("goto pwow",0)

for ALL of my set portals (except those that are level 1 :P), this disables ALL those portals. then on "You raise a level!!$", a trigger fires that does: #IF (@current_level >= %eval( 15-(10*@tier))) {#CALL %portalenable("goto pwow",1)} for EACH one of my portals. Youll need some triggers that track: current_level & tier level(simple as typing "tier = 1" for T1), the 15 in the above is the level of the portal, and i am currently T1, so it checks that im levle 5, if so, it enables the portal.

• Be sure to map the clan halls because of clan portal exits

"Other" exits

Say your standing in The Onslaught of Chaos on the end of the pier, there is a portal exit "enter hope", you can type ">enter hope>n" and zmud will create an "other" exit and place the room to the north. From then on if manually walking, you can simply go north. speedwalks will use .(enter hope) to go there. You will need to right click the little red circle and choose one-way.
