I think it is a good idea. Quick thoughts: - I'd guess that this might be static content in some cases, in which is refers to an actual image name. In that case, if the client is not using image caching, it would have no idea if it has the image or not (since it only gets image numbers in that case). I think simplest all around would be to enforce the idea that clients must do image caching - it simplifies code in a bunch of areas. - I'd also imagine one could have images that are not directly associated with any archetypes (say a map of the area). There is nothing that prevents that, as IIRC the client script will pick up any files of appropriate name in the arch directory, but it may be desirable to have a storage for such images someplace else, since if they are not used by archetypes, they don't really belong in that directory structure. _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list crossfire@metalforge.org http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
