Description
Updated mapout.cpp file to make this neat little feature work. It perhaps didn't work because of writing buffer changes I made in my game, but going back to other versions of Smaug that I could easily check, none of these mapout functions seemed to work, going back decades. I really think this is a cool way to build indoor areas, and supports something like a 28x28 grid of rooms.
It seemed to be an error with the way that map_stats, and functions that used the same logic, counted the rooms. It was getting bad column data. Also, the directions for making exists seemed to be reversed. So it was making a north or south exit the wrong way, but west and east might work. This was causing rooms to not connect. I also added support for X (crisscrossing NW-SW exits) for the map.
help mapout
Help level: 101
Syntax: mapout
mapout write: create a map in edit buffer.
mapout stat: get information about a written, but not yet created map.
mapout clear: clear a written, but not yet created map.
mapout show: show a written, but not yet created map.
mapout create: turn a written map into rooms in your assigned room vnum
range.
Example of a map:
[i]-[D]-[f] [j] | | X / [I]-[f]-[i]-[i] | \ / [j]-[G]-[F] [I] \ ^ [j]
This would create several linked rooms. Just paste the info into the
editor and it will map out all the rooms and exits.
