The overmap system allows adding new maps to the big 'galaxy' map.
|
||||
Idea is that new sectors can be added by just ticking in new maps and recompiling.
|
||||
Not real hot-plugging, but still pretty modular.
|
||||
It uses the fact that all ticked in .dme maps are melded together into one as different zlevels.
|
||||
Metaobjects are used to make it not affected by map order in .dme and carry some additional info.
