Title: Map testing Idea
Post by: Death_The_Kid on June 22, 2011, 01:47:04 am: When u go to test your map your always a orangish lion. Why not make it to where u can pick a character to test it with? you wouldnt have to add that feature to the game maybe add it as a optional download or something.

True. Is there a way to set a preset as your test character for testing your maps?

If this still works the same way I do not know. But if it does it should be the preset_1 inside my_presets that sets it.

But as mentioned, I do not know if that works anymore since I run around with my default lioness.

Guess I have to close the game, re-open it, open up mapmaker, fix what I got stuck in, and start again.

I know your thinking why not just log out and shrink the character than come back. Well ive been logging in to the game and want to join an rp, turns out only felines can join so i log out, change my species but i cant log back in because i cant connect to the server for ages. Im sure im not the only one with this problem.

Ive always liked the idea of being something different to an orange lion. It would be good if the sky changed too, not just being in the middle of the day all the time but thats off the point. If the server is down you cannot go online then run all the way to Cape to see your map with a different character. Also you might get Bad Tokens on the way there.
