Market maps?
« on: 22 December 2016, 04:36:07 PM »
First off, the new market is quite impressive, i have to admit. It is large and quite beautiful, but a bit hard to navigate.

My suggestion is that a simple map could be created to help players navigate the area.
I thought that it might be helpful to new players, or players that haven't been on in a while to get a helpful map so they don't have to spend forever looking for an item.
I do not know if this idea has been brought up before, or is already a solved problem, but i thought it might be a good idea.
Another way to solve this problem could be direct warps to a specific area, like farming or blocks, so it could be quicker and more convienent.
Once again I apologize if this matter has been brought up before, I just thought it could be a cool addon for new and returning players.

Thanks!

Overall the market needs some navigational aids, it is even missing some simple direction signs.
A map would be an excellent idea.

We've also talked about the idea of a little warp directory to each shop/area. This is a good idea too

I also suggested a simple little subway thing running around Qualia linking all the important sections and shops, but I'm not sure if that'd be more aesthetics over actual function.

I can probably get a map going quite easily too though

Cool! The subway is an awesome idea, too and the market is a great place For one. Regarding function, I think If it got you there fast and was easily accessible, it would be very functional, and it would add to the overall aesthetic. :)

I think the warps to each shop in the market is a lot faster and a lot eaiser. I agree and I think we should do that.
