The new map system is one of the few new features that makes my muding
experiance less enjoyable. i guess i nderstand that some ppl wanted the sight
thing to mean more in race tune or whatever but still it mainly ticks me off.

It fucks up my lighting and makes it harder to find your way around. Can
someone enlighten me what wonderfull new playabilety or other advantedge we're
getting out of this because i have missed it.

Sorry if i flamed someones pet project it wassnt my meaning to demean quite
some hours put in to improving bat or anything but it still makes my sessions
less fun.

If you have a uber client, with the mxp tags you can construct a map to a
fixed position to your window. i.o. when you run around the mud, the map would
simply update the info but stay in one place. Also, you can yourself decide
what to do with the info that comes from mud as you can make your own
colorings, gags, reshapings, ect to the mxp tags (that your client surely
supports).

e.g. if i setup my client to make all "EXITS" mxp tagged info to blink, no
mater where i would roam they would blink. Think those nifty mxp tags as
ansi/lite's that support html. Hell, you could even use PICTURES instead of
the traditional NW,N,NE,E....

A :-D hits you.

Perhaps you should just encode this into the game since it'll be better if
it's not some fix from my client but a game feature.
