Being able to mark places in the map

Postby JackBauerDAMMIT » Wed Nov 21, 2012 10:32 pm

Hello i would love to see someone implement something so you can mark a place on the map so you can remember it and maybe track it. For example the place where homestead is, because i would like to go exploring the map without worrying about getting back to my home. I keep getting lost :D :lol:


Thanks

I believe that the BDSalem client allows you to mark one spot, but it is not persistent across sessions (so if you log out, its gone). I use Enders, though, so I could be incorrect.

However, finding your way back to your claim is fairly simple using a custom client and the Salem Map Tool, all of which you can find linked here: http://salemwiki.info/index.php/3rd_Party

My method is to find some sort of landmark on the minimap that I will remember (like a quarry or strangely shaped marking), and find my way from there.

I have asked about this awhile ago in the custom client section. It would help alot of have a way to save coordinates. Kinda like how the mincraft minimap mod allows you too set a flag on the minimap,name it something, and change the flag color and icon. It would make it alot easier to navigate Salem. It even allows you to share the coordinates with others but i don't think that is possible in salem.
