The lovely expressways of B16F... (mapping fun)

[Pyrosmurfy]

I thought the third stratum was neat with its lily rides across the pond, but B16F is like an airport system of moving walkways gone bonkers.

I was wondering how you guys choose to map this one? At first I tried using double Warp icons with that little message text signaling where it was going (N3 W4 for example), but I ran out of messages! Now I'm using Warp icons for the beginning of a "ride" and Pit icons for the end. It seems to be doing OK, but trying to navigate is a bit of a headache.

Like the challenge, though. Just wish they had given us more options for icons (arrows would have been sweet). Or at the very list get rid of that annoying message limit.

That's why they added more icons in EO2, to let us map floors like that. I think for 16F I just resorted to mapping the walls only. 17F is going to run out of notes too. 19F is much like the lily rides fortunately.

Nah, it's only important to map the place while exploring that floor. After you're done with it, you'll only take one path to get to the next floor.

*puts game into DS to check* Yes, I only painted the walls where I could see them (i.e. not along the longer conveyors). The floor tiles got painted automatically of course. There's just no way to make arrows, so that's all you can do I think. EO2's arrows and colored floors were a welcome addition.

That makes sense. I now do like my little system of Warps and Pitfalls though
