Hi we should have an area to talk about mapping so that we don't have to secretly hand out maps in dark alleyways.
This is just a reminder to Wire but you you can post your lovely comments anyways.

Mappers are asking for a new subforum for map making. I think.

Because you said you were in bed, and that you'd forget about it the morning. I said that I'd make a thread to remind you, and now you don't want it!
MAKE UP YOUR MIND WIRE!

It would be nice to have a kind of community standardized legend for drafting. Like, I notice people like pixel maps, so a set list of what colors mean what would be great

How easy is it to build maps in Byond? I've never touched it, but I'm making a pixel map station draft right now

I wouldn't say it's super difficult, just time consuming and has a lot of little things to play around with. I played around with it in the past, but when I was building Clarion off Dion's map I just sat down and worked through using cog2 as reference mainly.
(also wire plz)

Not too bad unless you use a 4k monitor, in which case, may God have mercy upon your soul.
