Sneak peek at the new marks system.

0With 0 votes
As seen by Vadimuses. Posted under Achaea as a Misc log.

Showing off a new marks system I'm finishing up in the Vadi Mapper. It's a merge of the 'tag' and 'landmark' features in the IMapper, with a lot of added functionality - such as map marks that come with the map (shop, wilderness are the current ones), and personal ones - that you can export, share with someone else, and they can import them.

Of course it's easy to see a list of all your current marks in a nice fashion, show a path to the nearest one, or even "goto" it easily (think of shrines ;)).

Code is already available in the bzr, and the documentation is being worked on.

Note: for some reason the vmap is messed up here. That's not the case in my original log though :/
