I can't seem to find the related thread, but I'd like to request that <loc> be
added to the prompt as an option. While I'm sure there will be a very limited
few of us that might find use for this, I'm also sure that its readily
available since its being sent to batclient already. I realize the numbers
won't make immediate sense, but it can't be too hard to map the numbers to a
location on the bat-images, which is what I'm after.. to use in a floating
window that monitors the mud output to parse/display information.

Anyway, just a request.. would be nice to be able to see this information.
It would be cool if these could be converted into some sort of
longitude/latitude that made sense in mud. You could tell navigators to sail
to a certain point, or maybe cast go in the general direction of XX/YY.

Etc etc
but then you could keep a list of coordinates instead of memorizing areas,
not?

And that would be so horribly wrong and unfair, because?

I think we need magical GPS's. With upgrades it would add more maps and Points
of Interest and depending on the model you bought would have varying degress of
better pathfinding.
