gmcp Variables

I have been working on a non trigger based mapper using MSDP. And it mostly works but having issue with timings of things sent. So I decided it would be easier/better if it was gmcp based. One problem:
gmcp does not report room exits, description or terrain like the msdp.ROOM_TERRAIN, msdp.ROOM_DESC and msdp.ROOM_EXITS.

Do not really NEED description, but other two are vital.

Can this be added?

Hi Dead, what timing issues are you having? I was going to start working on an MSDP mapper...

When/if the server sends certain values. I ended up going back to gmcp for the mapper. If only because I KNOW when it sends the room data{vnum, name,area,terrain,exits} they will ALL be there. MSDP that was not the case and I was having to test for to many things.
