A new Island

I’m working on making a new island but unsure how to do it in the world or what I need for approval.

I have a map that I am slowly labeling, descriptions for rooms and getting photos. Mostly things nabbed from google or AI.

It is… more than a small area though. Almost like another little map. Is this possible to do? It’ll have lots of space for others to build upon and I can update the map as towns and area’s are made on it. Just thought it would be fun to make a full island with lots to do. I figured a boat ride there from the ferry or a boat from the Sinder beach could take people there, so it’d be south of Sinder beach.

This is what I have so far. If not able to do this, then I just need general help to make an island where I can link the map in the description I guess.

I actually work on something similar.
You should keep the the room limit (60) in mind when doing big areas. It sounds like a lot but it is reached sooner than one might think.

Can’t say much about linking it but I wish you good luck.

P.S.: You can add the map in an area and set the coordinates of subareas or rooms.
Try help set room position.

I’ve never even built anything yet so… I’m just extra ambitious I suppose ha. But also clueless…

Hi, builder here. So, you’re making a public area. That’s cool! I’ll list the basic things each public build needs.

  • Descriptive rooms with proper grammar,
  • Well-defined exits,
  • Each room within the build to be connected to an area or sub-area,
  • Proper punctuation for room/area titles,

We also need to be able to enter the area for review! If you could copy and paste a Room ID here, preferably the entrance of your build, that would make it easy for us builders to enter. In order to copy a Room ID, all you need to do is enter a room and type in the command get room id.

If you wish to discuss building in further detail with a builder, you can get in touch with me on my character Archie 'Ace' Hartman anytime he’s awake.

If you like, I could potentially help with building up the Island as well. I’d love to see this become an actual place.

I made the area for the general Isle but am unsure how to get the Room ID. I named it Brinewood Isle

In order to get a Room ID, you need a room! You would have to create a room for the area, enter the room, and then use the command get room id. How far into the project have you gotten? If you are still in the planning phases, then that’s quite alright. I’m more than happy to assist through the process.

I personally suggest you get the bare bones of the area started, and if you hit any snags or are unsure on how to do something, get in contact.

I made the area and now I’m not sure how to do anything else. The instructions in the academy are hard for me to follow I guess haha.

I have the map and descriptions of all the rooms. Slowly I am gathering images for the rooms. I am leaving a lot of the map open for others to build rooms on as well. It’ll be more diverse than me trying to make it all up myself. I just have the rooms and such that I and my friends would like to start the place off with if that makes sense. I’ve saved all the room descriptions in a google doc and got the map labeled and another version with no labels.

I never looked at the academy, myself. But I found the help files quite… helpful.

help build should lead you to everything you might need.

Well, speaking of this build. I was working with Gilley on building a carnival. We have a good skeleton of it done and I’ve been working on a few scripts for it to be interactive.

I’ve moved my massage parlor to the island as well; and I’d be interested in setting up scripts for the reception area to potentially automate making appointments or contacting me when someone’s there. I’d love to work with people on this :smiley:

With Ace’s help and a few tips from others I have the majority of what I wanted to build done.

WakuWaku - I wouldn’t mind you building more upon the High Tide Carnival

And half the map is still empty so others can build on it too.

The Brinewood Isle is now connected to the public space. You can get there via the Sinder Ferry! Have fun!

If anyone is interested in building upon the Isle feel free to shoot me a message online. Or post here though I rarely check the forums as much. I can’t wait to see others idea’s come to life here. As you make your own area’s just be sure to come up with rules and descriptions. Your area’s are YOURS with your own rules. I have no issues with what those may be, even if they are not to my personal tastes.

I want this to become another fun and thriving area for all of Wolfery, not just me and close friends. :slight_smile:

What would your thoughts be about having a clothing optional, kinky nightclub and bathhouse on the island?

You can also get the Area ID by using the command list areas
