CMUD Mapping

Hey,

So I've been having an issue I've been trying to work through with CMUD mapper. I have always used ZMUD up until the last month or so, and now that I've switched, the one problem I am having is getting mapping to work correctly in CMUD. I never had an issue using auto config with ZMUD, but when I attempt to do so with CMUD, it basically causes it to be such that:

1. When I enter a room, the exits aren't automatically created.
2. The map ends up lagging behind where I am. So it doesn't draw a room until I'm in the next room.
3. It's putting doors on basically every exit.

Is there anyone out there with a mapper configuration that works pretty well that would be willing to share it?

I don't know what the "proper" way to do it is, but when I am mapping a new area if I type 'who' it updates the room automatically. I get the door problem too, you can remove that on each room easily enough but it's still a pain.

So, move, type 'who' (bound to my 5 numpad key) and it should fix it. Probably works for any other bound button I'm assuming.

I unchecked the three options after moving in the configuration and just added doors where there are such via edit room.

To avoid creating door make sure you got unchecked Auto Door creation option at Strings and Doors tab.
Feel free to test my gmcp trigger too - it captures the room name and exits so it should solve problem with
mapper lagging behind and draw the room instantly (almost).
