RPGoof Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Don't you hate having two windows open just for the world map? Isn't it a pain having to load that thing? Don't you want the world map to be ingame? Well whine like a noob no more! Now there can be the world map INGAME! It would be a GREAT tool for newbies and a good one for experienced players as well. I find it a bit challenging to find my way around the wilderness (Not THAT hard, but I get lost >_<) and it would be nice to have a 'Where Am I?' button. And yeah, it was Blueleader9's idea too. So I present to you: THE RUNESCAPE WORLD MAP- IN THE GAME!!! To access this map, first click the earth icon near the mini map. The map will automatically turn to the north, and the world map will appear. All the map controls will be the same, excluding the hotkeys for zooming and all those other thingies. A new feature is added- the 'Where Am I?' button. When this button is clicked, the button will temporarily flash red and the icon on the map will flash like the items from the key would do when they are clicked upon. If the 'Where Am I?' icon is not on the screen, the map will automatically go to that point. To exit, just click the 'Exit world map' button. If you get attacked, the map will automatically close. You can't use it during combat. If you go in a dungeon and use the map, your 'Where Am I?' icon will not be visible on the world map. JaGeX doesn't really provide us with dungeon maps... maybe they do... I don't know. I've re-thought about where to put the button. It would be a good spot to put it in the empty spot next to the friends list... Then a button like the 'logout' button where you can view the world map, and then the second screen in my post will appear. I'll edit the pics whenever. (Rednik's idea, thanks :)) SUPPORT WITH A SIG!

aquariusman Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Quite good, I support it, it helps a good bit even if you think you can make your way around very easily, it good to know you can *quickly* know where you are and where you want to go. The old map took much too long to load, i assume this will be instant? Also maybe take the map off the top bar and make it a right click feature on the minimap. There's no such thing as regret. A regret means you are unhappy with the person you are now,and if you're unhappy with the person you are, you change yourself. Thatregret will no longer be a regret, because it will help to form the new,better you. So really, a regret isn't a regret. It's experience.

BrineShrimp Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 This is a really good idea :) When sperm whales mate, 3/4 of the sperm goes into the sea, not his mate.Thats why sea water tastes funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rednik Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Nice idea! But maybe they should put the earth button at the empty spot next to the friend/enemy buttons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThurinEthir Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 I hate opening the world map. Especially if all I have to do is make sure I don't get lost on the way from Port Khazard to Yanille. And since I have Windows XP, the programs pile up on the bottom. (Yes, I know I can make it so it doesn't) That makes it hard transitioning back and forth. So I support.

RPGoof Posted January 6, 2007 Author Share Posted January 6, 2007 Thanks for all the feedback guys! Your questions- answered! The old map took much too long to load, i assume this will be instant? Yes, of course. The world map will load along with the rest of the game loading. It would be a pain if you had to load your skills list when you click on it, wouldn't it? And about the mini-map right click- I don't really think that would be a good idea. Making it a seperate button would make it easier to find. If i click somewhere on the big map, will i walk there? You can't, it wouldn't really be possible. While running around in Runescape, theres sections of the entire world that load, right? Well if you try clicking on somewhere on your mini-map while theres a black edge where the map hasn't loaded you can't go there. This would work the same with the world map- you can't walk on the black area cause it's not loaded =\ I've re-thought about where to put the button. It would be a good spot to put it in the empty spot next to the friends list... Then a button like the 'logout' button where you can view the world map, and then the second screen in my post will appear. I'll edit the pics tonight (if I remember :D) and update.

lotuslord212 Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Supoerted(not reported!) I support this. Suggetion:- May be make the button of "Key" & "Overview" in the area of 'Public Chat.' So it doesnt effect the view of game. Still Good! =D> ????ClAn????wHaT iS iT??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

korn_Muphin8 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Wow excellent idea!!! As for placement? JaGeX needs to make more buttons surounding the console... It would go there. Perhaps a second row below the logout button. or going around the console. And when i say console, i mean the box that holds your invent, skills, music, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rednik Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 How is this gonna work if you are in like dwarfen mines or something? They gotta make a new "layer" of the map. Oh, I'm also working on some really good fakes that looks real : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbington Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 That is a very intresting idea actually, however i'm not too sure how possible it is. I would imagin it would cause a dangerous amount of lag. More importantly I like where you have placed the button, that area has never been considered by me before, and is quite a nice location...... That section of the idea is more likely to lead onto somthing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
