Mapping assist options #19

Open ghost opened 7 years ago

ghost commented 7 years ago

In order to facilitate user scripted mapping the addition of a 'showroomid' or similar setting for mortals would be very useful.

Useful for mapping yes. Bad for zones that are mazes

Improving functionality shouldn't be shot down by the mild inconvenience of slightly rebuilding some maze exits. That's all it would take to keep mazes relevant if that is the turn off. Make the maze harder.

Or implement an out of band protocol to transmit roomid that will never be seen but can still be used for mapping. One can then add a builder room creation variable that enables or disables this out of band send for that specific room. (a noidsend flag, or similar) Obviously this is more complex but you get to keep your precious mazes they way they are.

Can we talk about how mazes are kinda ridiculous considering everyone is carrying around a datapad?

Fair enough. Just a thought really. One would assume a datapad could help one navigate an unfamiliar environment if the protocols were met. However it wouldn't be hard to download most maps for a fee for example.
