Old road improvement projects

Postby Surly » Sun Oct 16, 2005 2:16 pm

Now, this isn't a bug as such... but there is a road improvement project in Doryiskom for the "Klojt Sea Road".

However, there are (of course... nothing is ever easy...) two directions of that road. If I ask someone in programming really nicely... Would they tell me which Klojt Sea Road the improvement project is for?

And for the future... will road improvement projects be titled by direction (e.g. north, south) once the location amnesia kicks in?

The roads will still have the same names. I just realized that. I'm off to start map making.

Actually one of my own characters is pulling their hair out trying to work out the same issue on the Cantr island ... so I'm personally very aware of the issue .

Sometimes it can be worked out logically but I can see in this case it can't - The project is for
"Klojt Sea Road to Doryiskom Mountains (north) (path) (direction: south-south-west)"

Edit: Yes Surly I think they should be described by direction, and personally can't see why the road names should be presrved when location amnesia is applied

Thank you, Chris...

As for road names, I believe this would only really affect the Lad-Siom island, no? Are there road names on any other islands except the Olip Isle?

And the Olip Isle had Andaru, so who needs names?

Some of the other language starting islands have road names but most roads are unnamed - under 4% are specifically named

I haven't looked in a while, but I thought that roads could only be improved from one end. It would be nice if a project mirror project showed up at the other end of the road allowing material and labor to be applied at either end. I think as it is now, once construction is begun on one end it can't started on the other side. I know ProgD has more important things to do, but this would be neat.

The commonly-ignored Dhung island.
