Title: Map bug
Post by: Cheddar on November 15, 2006, 01:27:20 PM
I love the new map thingy (is it new?  Did not get it when I first started beta) but make sure NOT to use it until you hit another milestone.  If you use it before then you will go into the waybackmachine, ala pre burning buildings. 

This happened to me and I was able to fix it by running to the lodge, entering the building, then leaving the building.  Someone else around here died and it warped them back to post burning.  Just a friendly FYI :)

I wish they would lower the wait time on the map!

It'd be nice if they told us when we are suppose to touch a milestone .. I just happened to do it out of curiosity!

The horse system needs to be a bit more....commonsensical.

It's a stupid system that I can only horse someplace I have walked to.

Actually, no, I think it is common sense; although sure, the game has your horse move automatically, if you think about a 'realistic' setting, you would be guiding the horse to the next stable; if you haven't been there, you'd have to wander around to find it, which the penny thrift dwarf stablemaster won't let you do. You have to show you know where you're going :P

No - there are things called maps. Granted I should be able to actually BUY a horse and ride it where ever too though.

Yes, but the maps from the Tolkien novels would have made it wicked hard to navigate beyond the macro level.
