Re: Design Discussion: The Nuking of maps

The problem with just removing the player indicators is that you just need to make a new map, and you are at the centre of the area being explored. It's a bit more work, but doing that with a filled out map in your inventory of the same area would make for having the indicator back again ... That be...

Here was me thinking this would be a thread about the 18th century chess playing automaton which wasn't an automaton ... And now I'm fascinated by the whole concept of this ... It must be named after it. Artificial Artificial Intelligence ... It must be.

Read tom_savage's reply (2nd reply to the OP). That explains it all.

My apologies once again for the initial instability of the release.

Change Elements to be created before Wool in Stewing Pot

Currently, if you try to bulk-create Elements in a stewing-pot using string, the string gets processed into wool blocks instead of being used for elements if you have 4 or more string in the stewing pot. This makes bulk-creating of Elements (which I need for a current project) a pain if using string...
