Look up.
« on: November 25, 2007, 01:48:00 am »
Clouds are already implimented on the travel map. But I'd be interested in a way to show what your adventurer sees when they look up at the sky. Maybe they could see where to move to escape the rain, watch an elipse, or try to find pictures in the clouds. Even if there is no real use, I think it would be kinda cool.

Of course, making it flip the X co-ordinates of things (because the camera is looking up rather than down) could be a little confusing. Or maybe not...

Just a command to look up would be nice, that gives you a message about what your guy sees rather than an actual image.

My stray dogs often chase fire imps back into the magma pipe and then continue fighting while burning and drowning in the lava. Truly their loyalty knows no bounds, but perhaps it should.

I was thinking of doing something with this in relation to constellations especially.  Not sure exactly what form it would take.
