Looking.
« on: December 11, 2007, 06:35:00 pm »
I know this is probably planned, and has probably been suggested before, but whatever.  Adventure mode REALLY needs some kind of look around command, that either gives you a general description (You see a cave entrance to the south-west), or some form of minimap that shows you the general layout of the area. It's bloody annoying to search around an area for ages just to run in to a cave and be turned in to lunch for a gigantic cave spider.

See this thread:
Distant View

Same basic idea, I think. I didn't think about local landmarks, though. That sounds like a good idea on it's own.
