The main rooms of the JSW II map are all built and complete now, a bit of teamwork between Smila, Scott and myself has meant that we’ve ploughed through the room building in no time whatsoever - and thanks to Stu’s excellent editor, relatively painlessly too. I’ve got about 20 more rooms of my own design to put together, as has Scott… a quick scan through the latest update seems to me like Smila’s nailed a good percentage, if not all of his now.

Missed out on the test last night due to the flu kicking me around and being halfway up the stairs to bed before getting called back down to say there was a file waiting for me - but I was present for the test the night before which involved 5 of us darting around a room being able to chat with each other ingame. Apparantly, the update I missed now has room flipping in so the map can be explored as well.

Very nice and very fast work on Stu’s behalf, and its been a pleasure to test it up to now. Fingers crossed that none of our rooms are impassable - I’ve been trying to work on the same principles I did when building my old JSW editor hackage a few years back, so in theory they should be ok. Hopefully, nobody will discover “Life On Mars?” from my block - seens as its an “Entrance To Hades” style infinite death room.

Enough waffle… have some pictures from some of Smila’s and my own block:
