I have an idea for a feature on a MUD, but I'm getting stumped when I
attempt to code it.. map mode for when you're not in a town... i.e.:
++++++^
^^^^^+^
^^^^^+^
^^^@++^
^^^+^^^
^^^+^^^
^^^+++*
would be what you see, instead of say:
Along the Road
...description
Obvious Exits: North West East South
there would be different chars for different sector-types, but ^ is for
mountain, @ is where you are, and say.. * would be a town or city
I know I could do it for say.. just straight west/east/north/south of a
char, like so:
+
^
^
^^^@++^
+
+
+
but inside the corners is where I get stumped...how would I go about
finding those rooms?
