Having failed to get the map to appear in the game I am trying to write I have created a new one with just 2 rooms linked together. I have entered the game object and under the features tab I have ticked the Map & Drawing Grid box and then moved from one room to the other .... Still no map. I'm sure I must be doing (or perhaps not doing )_ something obvious ! Any help would be appreciated !

could you post your demo game here?

Here is the code ... Couldsn't be much simpler !

<asl version="550">

    <gridmap />
  </game>
  <object name="room1">
    <inherit name="editor_room" />
    <object name="player">
      <inherit name="editor_object" />
      <inherit name="editor_player" />
    </object>
    <exit to="room2" />
  </object>
  <object name="room2">
    <inherit name="editor_room" />
    <exit to="room1" />
  </object>
</asl>

The map only works with directional exits (south, north...)

Ah !! I hadn't really understood that. I will have to see if I can modify my game to take account of that ! Many thanks

If I set directions using the compass, then the alias for the room only appears in the compass rose. The hyperlink in the text simply gives the compass direction (eg North) I presume I cant change it to a more descriptive direction ? I guess I have to decide wether it is worth sticking to just N S E W etc or sacrificing the map !

You are right. I think this is a bug, it should be possible to change the alias

Crikey ! Can'y believe its not me this time !
