Game Development: Map Rework

[Fierce_Deity]

The backhanded compliments from some of you are kind of tiresome.

Good job with the map! Looks good at least!

10 years into the game default client is beginning to be playable

Never thought I would live to see the day that foraging got a buff.

Thanks for working hard Jorb & Loftar!

How do you feel about waypoints on the ingame map?

hold alt + left click onto the map to que up a path. It's an amazing custom client feature for long boat trips

Nah... Those kinds of features (same with animal "radius") should be custom clients prerogative. I really like the idea of clean client that loftorb promote.

But some of features like customizable interface are the must, since we had monitor resolution quadrupled (at least) in those years.

After one minute in-game all icons were lost from both compact map and minimap(check that cattail head was turned on, but no icons, and no red crossing for the player position...)

Being able to queue any actions is something I've been considering for a very long time, and is one of the reasons why Alt isn't used for anything*, since I've been reserving it for that. It's a bit of a big deal though, since I'd have to rewrite every action in the game to conform to such a queuing system, which is the main reason why it hasn't happened yet.

and what about lag ?

What about it?

* The other reason being that it's common on Linux for window managers to reserve Alt for moving windows by dragging anywhere inside them.

i know taht if i open the big map, i lag a lot, would i lag now if i open my mini map?

[iamahh]

seems i can only move a little while loading, then character can't move anymore

maybe my specs are at the limit, I use everything for better peformance

also noticed icons list was loading a lot of stuff, now it stopped and there's "???" for bloodsplat and caverat

amber is working ok
