DR Narost Mapping

[horibu]

I was wondering how to go about manually adding in ROOM ID#s to different maps so that narost will work on some non-mapped rooms.

Also wondering how easy it would be to modify ;go2 to detect if using GS4 or DR and then use the proper game's preconfigured aliases such as ;go2 town, right now it tries to go to Wehnimer's Landing room# when logged into DR.

Thanks.

Narost only shows images that are referenced in the map database, and only looks in the lich\maps folder for them. So if the image isn't already being used in the map database, stand in a room that will use the image and type:

;e Room.current.map_name = 'filename.png'

Change filename.png to whatever the real file name is. This won't work unless the rooms are already in the map database. If go2 doesn't work in the area, use mapmap first.

Now start narost with

;narost fix

If the image you want isn't already showing, bring it up by right-clicking on the narost window.

Ctrl+Shift click on opposite corners of the room you're in.

Move to the next room and Ctrl+Shift click some more.

These changes are being made in memory only, and narost will not automatically save them to disk. When you're done, or you get far enough to be nervous about losing your changes, type

;e Map.save


go2 probably doesn't need to detect GS or DR. DR has its own repository and copy of go2. It just needs the built-in targets changed.

Sweet. So I just need to change the ;go2 script and modify the built-in targets what I deem appropriate. Guess I can then upload it as go3. Thanks for letting me know. I'll test it out tonight by mapping the Paladin guild and the rest of the empath Guild.

PS.. added this to the lich wiki under a new page about narost and linked to it on the main page of the wiki. Hope you don't mind.

I'm trying to do this for the wizards guild in WL, wont work.

Ok so I'm thinking of picking up where DR isn't finished in terms of Narost and Mapping.

I imagine all I have to do for rooms not yet ID'd in town are reference them to the already existing .png file of town right, then mapmap?

Never mapped before but it looks like DR could use a bit of loving.
