Making a script to chunkify the bigger maps might be a good idea. The mlab world maps are only 140^2 though (I'm assuming load times is the issue? Bigger maps tend to take a 1/2 sec to load on older computers).
I don't think the apartments have any issues, I tested them when I made them, and when I motified them after that... but who knows, mistakes happen. --- Todd Mitchell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Andrew Fuchs wrote: > > >On 7/18/05, Nicolas Weeger > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > >>Hello. > >> > >>Is someone actively working on the new > Python-based guilds?
