I had made a mistake with the alias using %~1 instead of correctly using %-1
Fixed it now, was off the top of my head..

Any other mistakes let me know!

I kinda like in-game stuff and I think the magic map is just great. Now, it only covers newbie area, Sparkle and Gelan I think but if I remember correctly anyone is free to create ascii-maps in the same style for the other areas and send them in for incorporation in the magic map. Why not "simply" translate the maps that exist on the websites and start incorporating more and more area into the magic map? If the wizards would offer some type of reward for mortals who submit maps I am sure it could go pretty quick when we have many excellent "unofficial" maps to use as base.

What a wonderful idea! If people want to make ascii maps, we can store them and get them added to the game. Let me talk to our mappity mapping Keeper to see if that's something viable. I'm sure he'll need something to focus on after he finishes the rest of the quest hints from the event.

Speaking of events, we could make it an event too. Though it may be a bit counterproductive as people would be making the same maps....hmm...

And it would be an event for ascii skilled people only....but if it boost the map making, it's good :)


Speaking of events. What ever happened to that? It used to be an event every 2 or 3 months. Now there is very long gaps between them. We need events, it makes playing a lot more fun, something else to do for a while. It makes people interact more, it's fun, fun, fun..... *bounce*

Nice idea about extending the magic map.

There are some old school ones out there we could maybe just add?
People posted them so I guess they wanted others to be able to use them...
