We would like to port this feature to mudlet, so I have a few questions. We also have a dynamic world map which displays the position of everyone in-game, who is in the group, etc. Many of our players currently have this displayed inside their client( it helps them locate those whom have died ).
Url inside Window
Comes from this webpage:
Dynamic Map
Is there any way to display images from URLS inside windows?
Is there any way to adjust the position of images inside the windows?
Is there any way to display part of an image, so that not the entire image is shown at once, similar to the above example?
A couple of other clients have something similar to the below feature:
HtmlBrowse
format: #htmlbrowse {window title} {url}
Redirects an html window or popup to display the web page at the specified url.
example:
#htmlbrowse {sloth} {www.slothmud.org}
Directs the window named 'sloth' to display Sloth's home page.
Basically, we would send the data via ATCP. If the variable for atcp_area_vnum changed, we would request the new map. Place part of the map in the window, and adjust it according to the x and y coords of that room, which are also sent via ATCP.
Thanks for any advice!
