Title: Member Map
Post by CPG on 12/20/03 at 18:28:41
I just noticed this, and I thought it would be cool if everyone did it.

There's this cool map function where you can put your location up for others to see. On this forum anyways.

http://www.nightmist-online.co.uk/cgi-bin/YaBB/YaBB.pl?board=;action=mmall;defmap=europe

Go down and hit add your location.

Title: Re: Member Map
Post by Matt on 12/20/03 at 19:20:52
Well, considering loads of people are trying to set their location, i'm not supprised.
Title: Re: Member Map
Post by JLH on 12/20/03 at 19:22:02
membermap takes a while to load when i announce it to 200 players on the game to click the link, lol. each request has to check every member of the forum to see if they are on the map or not, so does take a while. it is roughly 2 seconds normally, which is now, since the heavy load has stopped.

Caistor is nowhere near either of JLH's abodes...
Title: Re: Member Map
Post by Haunted on 12/20/03 at 21:00:33
Yeah it is...Grimsby is basically next to caistor...maybe your off? Seeing as you're living in the sea? ;)

I actually live in Cabourne...6 miles from JLH's house...so err?
Title: Re: Member Map
Post by JLH on 12/20/03 at 21:06:03
caistor is about 15 miles from grimsby, cabourne, about 14.

Post by Haunted on 12/20/03 at 21:13:30
ah, i remember what i did wrong, 6 miles to morrisons from Cabourne :D and its 12 Miles from cabourne to your house...I remember my dad telling me when we went to the concert ..Im right!! :P(its 12 miles)
Title: Re: Member Map
Post by JLH on 12/20/03 at 21:22:54
one way to sort this, *loads autoroute*
10 miles from my house to yours, 11 miles to cgs.
Title: Re: Member Map
Post by Haunted on 12/20/03 at 21:29:39
Wes got 12 miles on Auto-Route...i used to go to St.Martins basically next to your house ...which was 12 miles also...anyway it isn't worth arguing about right? lol.


Lets just say we live kinda close, and Pandi lives in the sea.



Pandi: Why was your icon in the sea anyway? ;)
Title: Re: Member Map
Post by Oracle on 12/20/03 at 21:49:12
I looked at the map and it seemed roughly about 12 so I presumed you were right, it could easily be 10 and if JLH checked more closely then it probably is. But like you said who cares?

Have you not heard of the lost underwater city of hull?
* shakes his head

Back on topic, the member map is really cool :)

You have a German flag because your location is ''Runkel-Wirbelau, Germany''
Title: Re: Member Map
Post by felicity on 12/21/03 at 11:48:45

Post by Nemesis on 12/22/03 at 12:24:46
The map really could do with a zoom function, cuz all the lil pinny things are grouped too close together, so soon enuff imma be living in some random country all the time, lol
Title: Re: Member Map
Post by Oracle on 12/22/03 at 13:18:11
I said to JLH he should add a zoom function when it first came out but he said as it is not something he has coded, it is just a newish function you can add to the forum, he can't actually edit it :(
Title: Re: Member Map
Post by Nemesis on 12/22/03 at 13:25:53
that is quite surprising, i know its diff coding, but its ironic how JLH can create an entire game, yet cant add a zoom function =(

its unfair that, too many diff types of code
Title: Re: Member Map
Post by Oracle on 12/22/03 at 14:12:22
I don't think I quite said that right, I'm sure he could edit it but he isn't allowed to as it is not one of his programs, he didn't create the forum, it's a yab thing so he can either have the function or can't he is not allowed to edit it.

I'm a Paddy living in UK and as the flag is for location rather than nationality I got that d**n Union Jack. No offense to British players, but as flags go that one is annoying for losts of reasons.

But nice feature.
