| I'm trying to put together my own area editor (no disrespect intended - yours is fantastic, but I need to be able to customize it a little more). Do you know where I can get accurate documentation for the area files? Even the (scant) documentation that comes with the 1.4a files seems to be outdated, compared what bits of the source I've looked at.
Or am I going to just have to bite down and slog through all the code?
TIA | | Top |

| The only documentation I used was the source itself, supplemented by some web pages describing the purpose of the various fields (builders guides). I don't remember where they all are now, although a couple are linked near the top of my forum section "SMAUG server - running the server".
Good luck with the editor, I will be interested to see the end result. :) |

| Argh, that's what I was afraid of. Well, I suppose it'll be a learning experience - I've gotten (I think) a much better handle on it all, and the code is even starting to make sense.
Now I just need to figure out why I can't compile it. Ten years of not using Unix will rust the brain a bit... | | Top |
