"Directions

The directions recognised are: N:north, S:south, E:east, W:west, U:up, D:down."

In fact,many mud have Directions more than the above.

such as eu ed wu wd su sd nu nu nw ne se sw

How can i add this to the mushclient's Directions?

On the same page, it also says:

Non-standard directions

You can supply non-standard directions (eg. NE for NorthEast) by putting them in brackets.

For example:

5N 4W (ne) (say open sesame) 5U 4(se)

thanks.

But i think it's a little troubled.

Can mush standin these directory? I mean that:

when i type "northup" , the MUSHclient will know the reserved directory is "westdown" autoly.

just like i type "north" , MUSHclient know the reserved directory is "south".

Can MUSHclient add more directory in it for default support?

Hmm... I wouldn't be opposed to adding at least northeast to southwest internally... They could be specified by the letters j to m or something like that... It would make our lives a bit easier and still ensure backwards compatibility... What are Zmud'z keys for that? Maybe you could change them to those so they're compatible.

You can also supply the "reverse" direction after a "/" character, in case you want to reverse the speedwalk direction later.

For example:

5N 4W (ne/sw) (say open sesame/kick door) 5U 4(se/nw)

So, you could do (nu/sd) with your aliases and have them be backwards compatible.

(everyone else:)
Theres some other way of doing this, I dont remember what. Is it a plugin? I looked, I didnt see it. Something where you define the backwards directions, I think it was in a plugin, I cant find it at the moment though.

See the release notes for version 3.48 ...


4. When doing a ReverseSpeedwalk (either using an alias dialog or with a script) it now recognises the four directions (ne) (nw) (se) (sw) and correctly generates the reverse direction. Previously that would only work if you had them entered as (ne/sw) (se/nw) etc.

Doing what exactly? There was a reversespeedwalk plugin (I think), although I can't find it just now.

See Simple Speedwalk Reverse.

I mean adding it so we don't have to type 4 letter ((nw) (ne)) instead of 1 (j, k)...

Well, you can always write your own custom speedwalk alias that expands "j" to "(ne)" and then calls the main speedwalk routines.

I have wrote a lots of alias about directory.

:)

Well, Can MUSHclient 2.60 suport the directories defaultly?

(nu/sd) (eu/wd) (su/nd) (wu/ed)
(nd/su) (ed/wu) (sd/nu) (wd/eu)
(northwest/southeast) (northeast/southwest)
(southeast/northwest) (southwest/northeast)

No, that was introduced in version 3.02.

See point 16 in:

http://www.gammon.com.au/scripts/showrelnote.php?version=3.02&productid=0

The current version is 3.50.
