*scratches head* Problem with mah new world.

I'm making a bunch of levels which are probably gonna get uploaded to Sanstrata, but I have a little problem. You know the map files that string the levels together? Well I'm a good scripter and a below-average LAT (i.e. I suck at it) but I really haven't a clue when it comes to map files. Can someone tell me how to make levels that are joined together up and down? I know how to join levels next to each other ("levelontheleft.nw","levelinthemiddle.nw","levelo ntheright.nw") but how do I join, say, topofthemountain.nw, middleofthemountain.nw and bottomofthemountain.nw together? Any help much appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks... but it still didn't work. Eh, I suck at this whole levels thing. I can't exactly think how to put this in words, so I made a nice graphic to show you how my town's linked together so far. (Ten seconds in Paint.)



Sorry about this, I try to do most of my stuff myself. If you help me I will give you credit.

according to your little picture that you made, the map should look like this:

"","","statonplateautop2.graal","statonplateautop1 .graal",""
"","","","statonplateau2.graal",""
"","","","statonplateau1.graal",""
"staton4.graal","staton2.graal","staton1.graal","s taton3.graal","statonpark.graal"
"","","tothetown.graal","",""


Dont forget that the levels have to be linked together (ie. The bottom of statonplateutop1.graal should have a link to the top of statonplateu2.graal.

Hope this helps.

A GOLD Dragon Lies Beneath!

I took the Inner Dragon online quiz and found out I am a Gold Dragon on the inside. My Inner Dragon is the most honorable of all. Golds are the third rarest of all the dragons (after Platinum and Chromatic dragons) and have a station in society that reflects their rarity. I am what one might call a Draconic Knight. Golds live by a strict code of chivalry and commitment. Remember Draco? Yep, Gold Dragon. My appearance is fearsome and all-mighty but I'd never stoop so low as to bring any harm to a human. I'm one of only two dragon types that are aligned "Lawful Good" and demonstrate great magical proficiency. My piety, beauty, wisdom, and inner strengrth are absolutely without parallel.

Of course, being a Gold Dragon isn't all high ethics and codes. I like to fly around scaring things, advise humans in their affairs, and shapeshift. Strike that, I LOVE to shapeshift. And I'm great at it. In fact, who's to say I'm not really a Gold Dragon after all? My favorable attributes are honor, truth, kindness, gold, wisdom, bravery, and trustworthiness. If anyone threatens or tries to kill me, I could strike back with my breath weapon - Fire. But then, no one's tried anything that stupid in the last couple thousand years. After all, I'm about 54 feet long.

Thanks, that map works, but some levels are glitched into each other... Wuh, probably copied it wrong. Help much appreciated, people.
