Emma P Moderator Posts: 476 From:Suffolk, England Registered: Apr 2001 | posted 09-17-2001 03:04 AM Well it might be a good idea for a little while. Just out of respect really. But it's entirely up to you. IP: Logged

Suzie Croft Member Posts: 89 From:Cyberspace Registered: Jul 2001 | posted 09-18-2001 01:45 PM No offence meant to anyone, but if everyone started doing stuff "out of respect" every time there was a terroist attack in the UK, we'd never get anything done. *sits back and waits for people to call her an insensitive biatch* ------------------ I'm not dyslexic, I just type too fast...

To be honest, I don't think a coin flip is gonna hurt anyone, but it might now, now that a connection has been made... (nudges emma who looks surprised but pats Moose on the head anyway ). Ok put back to my box... IP: Logged
moose562 Member Posts: 998 From:London, England Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 09-18-2001 02:05 PM Oh!!! The question still stands....how many rooms should a good level have?! IP: Logged
aktrekker Member Posts: 454 From:WA, USA Registered: Apr 2001 | posted 09-18-2001 04:28 PM That would really depend. There can be lots of small connecting rooms. That can run the number of rooms up quite a bit. It also would depend on the story, how the rooms are layed out, how big they are, how many puzzles and traps and enemies you have...there really isn't any sort of number you could give. IP: Logged

pwhirl Member Posts: 1017 From:Mission, BC, Canada Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 09-18-2001 08:13 PM Number of rooms hey... Well Id say in the neighborhood of about 150-180. You don't want it to big, but you also don't want the level to be ridiculously short. ------------------ Top 5 Favorite sayings: Never give-up! unless the situation is hopeless:) The only thing certain in life is uncertainty! You get what you pay for. Nothing is impossible, it's just not likely to happen. If it doesn't kill you, it can only make you stronger. IP: Logged
hteS Member Posts: 387 From: Stockholm, Sweden Registered: Aug 2001 | posted 09-19-2001 12:29 AM I have about 57 rooms in my level, but they are big, and about 3 of them are small connecting rooms. I have over 220 objects and over 100 triggers in my level. I am currently coming to the object and trigger limits...because the info texts are in red color. Is that a good level? ------------------ Kill those smileys!!! IP: Logged

At least 50 of those are flip-maps though ...... make of that what you will....... ------------------ I WAS PRESSING THE DARN WALK BUTTON !! CELTIC FOLLY 1-5 IP: Logged
