*bump* Just for when you have a wee bit o' time, Seb (if I'm lucky! )

Hey again, sorry for taking so long.

No quick fix for this, I'm afraid (after looking into it). I'm not 100 % sure, but I think I know what the problem is. However, I will need the entire worldmap code in order to actually try and run it myself, and then looking in NI for possible mistakes. I can't spot any off-hand mistakes in the actual code, so I'm thinking it has to do with the different area-links offsets when adding area links from more than one area, and I'll need the full code to be able to test it.

See, when adding the different links to one area, you have to update the offsets of all following area links to be able to get it working. It's like a list of area links going from here to there with one area link per row, and what we try to do is basically to insert another row somewhere in the middle. That means that we must update all offsets with area links below the ones we've just added, since we've 'pushed down' everything several steps in the list.

I do that with the coding, but I think the problem is that we don't take multiple areas into account. We update the offsets accordingly, yes, but then the 'push down' of the links will be double when adding the next batch of area links from the next area. And here's the problem.

Alright, does this make any sense whatsoever?

Alright, does this make any sense whatsoever?

Damn, yes it does. I really want to get my head round this properly because I want to add more than one new area but if push comes to shove, I'll settle for just getting this one working correctly.

To save you searching back through this thread: I want to link Small Teeth Pass to new area entrance Exite and Umar Hills, Trademeet and DeArnise to new area entrance Exitne. This is as far as I got:-

Some heavy commenting on a 'fixed' version would be very much appreciated, if only because I wouldn't need to bug you again when adding another area!

[SConrad]

Just a slight bump to tell you that I haven't forgotten about this; I was in fact working on an entirely different solution to the problem earlier today. Where that leads, however, is unknown, but if it works, it'll certainly be much, much easier to do it.

[Yovaneth]

Much appreciated, Seb. I've just finished creating another area (you've probably seen the thread about the Cloud Peaks up in Delusions) and I'm having -erm- 'interesting problems' trying to figure out how to create night .wed overlays ATM.

-Y-

[SConrad]

Ah, I see...

Well, I can't help you there. I'm quite confident you know more about area creation than I do.

[Yovaneth]

Figured it - and I wasn't at all happy with the solution because it means that I have to redo the wed files for my main area from scratch. It's a big ***! area too - maximum size allowed in the IE - and absolutely loaded with wall polygons (fifty-something), doors (around eighteen - twenty) and overlays (four - including one really huge one with almost seven hundred vertices in it) <sigh>. Ah well - it's all now written up in the DLTCEP tutorials, along with a strong warning about what NOT to do!

[jastey]

I downloaded your weidu template

Is this template somewhere available for download? I looked into the tutorials section but did not find a tutorial / template that tells how to add areas to the worldmap in a compatible way. I would very much appreciate a link for this!

[Yovaneth]

I'm still waiting for Seb to pull the proverbial finger out . He did say he thought he'd figured out another way of doing it, as the current method requires you start a new game, but I haven't pushed him since because it isn't a show-stopper for me (yet). Hopefully he'll see this thread has started up again.....

Oh, sh*t.

Slipped my mind. Added to todo-list, swamped with other stuff atm.

I've just been overloaded with tons of other stuff, among them a new job which has taken a lot of energy lately. I'll get around to this, as well as the stuff in the other thread in this forum as soon as possible.

Sorry.
