I'm not sure it would be a good idea to pursue a rosary mapbecause using a religious symobl might offend people

[t-o-m]

i was wondering if he ment it like that - those christian bead things, but when he said something about decades - that through me off

you can always get someone to do that, acctually its not too hard, you
could do it yourself, there are a lot of tutorials around

1 Our Father, 10 Hail Marys and 1 glory be is a decade

u start the rosary on the cross at the bottom with the apostles creed, then it goes OF, 3 HMs, GB, (OF, 10 HMs, GB)x5 then at the end your should be at the intersecting point between the area u started at and the start/end of the decades, u then do a Hail Holy Queen

i am going to make a madagascan map, does anyone have any comments before i start production?

has this map been suggested before/tried to be made before?

[greenoaks]

i have a suggestion, finish london first.

the experience you'll get from completing one map will save you (and us) a lot of time and effort with the second map.

yeah i was going to do that...i was just going to work on this map sowly while comments come in about that map

the experience you'll get from completing one map will save you (and us) a lot of time and effort with the second map.

what d'you mean by that?

[TaCktiX]

You will know the process and know what to expect from the Foundry process. You won't have to worry about "zomg, where's the XML coder" in Map Ideas errors, or "uh...why not Idea stamp?" because you'll know what goes where.

[t-o-m]

i think i know where things go atm,

and it wasnt me looking for the coder lol

things like what colours to use, whether to use roads, airports, rail as connectors, map layout, additional gameplay features. what to do with those sorts of things will come to you much earlier in the process on subsequent maps because you will remember issues you had with previous maps, the feedback you received and how you eventually resolved those issues.
