The Mana World Forums

hello guys i am new in here so pls forgive me if i am violating any rules



i just wanna place a small suggestion that we should have an advanced map in game

like the map can be expanded full screen with a marking of the players current position in it

this map according will help many new players like me who get lost in game




this is the my suggestion pls comment abt what you think of my idea ??

For the record, a world map, of a minimap?

He's talking about the minimap

Perhaps a map that can be zoomed in and out, like say a world map, click on an area to zoom in to a zone area (such as hurnscald and surrounding maps), then click to zoom into expanded minimap of current map location (say hurnscald itself) and players position or coords on that map.

So, World -> Continent (?) -> Country -> City. Or something like that.

Does that make sense on paper like it does in my head?

Something like google maps for the mana world.

would require heavy client modification. maybe run this idea by 4144?

I think it's hard create whole game minimap.
Possible some thing like grahps. Or may be free camera between maps. Any way not simple.

Other way if some one draw it or combine all maps in one image. But this image need update on each server map update.

Or take the world map, and add dots for current maps that is the map your walking on, and open the minimap of that map. However someone has to place the dots in the world map.

I started a global map version... And I said you this idea some month ago, If i continue it, maybe you can add if you like and if you can? It will already better than the current minimap.
