The main problem I see is that hyperbolic geometry has no concept of a "direction", making it very hard to come up with meaningful coordinates or otherwise serialise the world into a form that's easy to see. It'd be easy enough to define an appropriate structure, though (e.g. a tesselation of heptagons with three around each corner, or pentagons with four). -- ais523

I would love that because that would create interesting movement mechanics.

DIS: New proposal coming soon-ish
I've noticed that I haven't made a proposal in a long time, so I decided to start working on one, and it's going to be a big one this time. Draft being worked on right now. The idea is to have a new "dimension" or "realm" as I'm calling it where players can go and get resources from. It would be similar to Arcadia, except without the Black and White land and stuff, and nobody would be able to own any land. You'd go in there, grab stuff, get out, and then the dimension would reset the next month or something like that. I also think that having the realm not totally cleared out might pose some sort of threat to Agora, not something game-ruining, but enough to encourage players to work together to clear it. The proposal would also come with general rules for Realms, so Arcadia would become a realm along with this new thing, and if people want to add new realms in the future, it will be a lot easier. Let me know what you think. Let me know if this is a terrible idea or if it might be cool.
