  • non-rectangular stairs in dungeons

    Well, I interpreted it as a raised room with a raised platform on the other side, though I see that was wrong from the description now ;)

    If I had read it properly in the first place I would have drawn the first 5 steps as patches of white covering the left end of the dungeon, rather than the right end of it. That would turn them the other way around.

    And you're welcome. It pays to have a whole arsenal of possible solutions to a problem so that you can chose the best for the job, and the best one is not always the same one each time.

  • Marine Dungeon - further developments

    I think that is probably because they tend to get buried by the sand and chopped off at surface level by the waves relatively quickly.

    This generally only happens to the largest ships, so symbols of those would be better done at city scale than dungeon scale, or the symbols would be awkwardly huge.

  • The Land of Vareltia, My First Map!

    I agree with Remy - it's a good little map :)

    If you export it as a jpeg of dimensions around 1-2000 on the longest side you should have more luck trying to upload it here.

    That looks good, Parsley :)

  • Marine Dungeon - further developments

    Hi Everyone! :)

    During the Live Mapping session yesterday, where Ralf demonstrated the new Marine Dungeon style published as the July issue of this year's Cartographer's Annual, he mentioned that we had already discussed the possibility of there being a few additional symbols in the same style at some point in the future. So now I am trying to make a list of what everyone would like.

    Just as a reminder, this is the example map from that style.

    Remember that you can use symbols from other dungeon styles in conjunction with Marine Dungeon, so you don't need to ask for things that we already have in other similar styles that work ok with this one.

    Other than that, all requests considered.

    Thank you.
