<![CDATA[Faldon Forums - 2026/4/23 Update]]> https://www.faldon.org/topic/7813/ Tue, 28 Apr 2026 17:28:46 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: 2026/4/23 Update]]> https://www.faldon.org/post/74070/#p74070 I think I have the same issue as Spy with not being able to see the "Sound 2" area to be able to assign a 2nd sound. Is there a scroll bar for the side tools I'm not seeing?

Further, as you implement editors for the existing map format, are there any global map settings? e.g. settings like weather, day/night, etc. Iirc we had some of these settings if an entire map was subterranean
Maybe I'm misremembering, or they were sector based settings.

It would be ideal to have some global settings like this either way

Also, a lot of the sounds are just named 'sound'. Are they just broken sounds or do they just need proper names?

As to Sound 2, I made it a fixed height (the automatic layout is somewhat buggy and was not cooperating) -- I'll lower that height next update.

Also, when trying to move the cursor to fix a name using arrow keys it hijacks it for horizontal scroll instead.

As for fewer players being online. I guess that's just mostly due to the server being rebooted. Most of them just double log and sit AFK. Takes a bit to get them back.

Definitely let me know if you run into any problems with scripts not working, such as those which override spellcasting in a zone, etc.

I feel like we had 20 people online about two weeks ago and about 10 since then. Curious what might have changed.

Thanks!

God bless.

Hopefully I can get that working in the next few days.

April 23, 2026:
Happy Saint George's Day!
Area options can now be changed in the map editor.
Music and sound have been combined into a single layer in the map editor.
