The box below of the Direction box what is it?
« on: November 08, 2010, 07:38:17 am »

I have been searching videos and wiki and it only talks about the shortcuts and other stuff, I can't figure out what the box is. I think there is a NPC in the box.

That is a minimap for towns. Right now towns are pretty broken so the minimap doesn't show anything entirely useful.

The one at top right?

That's just what you see above and below you.  The arrow and number indicate how far up and down it is.  Makes it a little easier to keep track of flying enemies or enemies in hilly terrain once you get used to it.


Oh wait, that one.  Yea it's the new minimap.  Its supposed to help you get around in civilized areas.  The blocks represent structures.  the @ is your position.
