Important Poll: Overworld Map Update


So since I've made a small tweak to something in the Overworld that will require a reworking of the map, I figured I should ask about something else: Should I make the Geist Lair visible when bringing up the map? And if so, how should I handle it?

This may also apply to another hidden part of the map, but I'm still deciding on that since it's a non-vital part of the main story.

---

Option 1: Keep it hidden- I don't change the map layout at all and only focus on the main part of the Overworld

Option 2: Shrouded in darkness- I make the area visible, but only when in the lair and only a certain distance from the Player's current location

(Like the Mines, but worse.)

Option 3: Revealed upon entry- Once entering the lair for the first time, the whole section will become visible on the map

Option 4: Fully visible- The area can be seen from the start of the game, teasing at what needs to be done later on

...and letting a lot of people know about the secrets hidden within the lair itself

---

I'd also like to take a moment to thank all of you who have been trying out the recent test builds and providing feedback on the issues that are coming up. I should have another version up later tonight to (hopefully) deal with the Boss spawn issue.

I might be having too much fun with this process...

Can it be done?

(Also, Happy New Year)

Still deciding if it's worth committing to a full rebuild, but I at least figured out a better way to handle the party swapping mechanic.

Still have to address a few tweaks to layering and test some other sidequests, but I think that we're back on track again.

This whole "making a new battle frame" situation does give me an excuse to add some things I had been putting off for far too long.

Got a (mostly stable) demo ready for the occasion!

Suppose it's rude to come back doing polls without showing some sort of progress for it.

While I chip away at the code for XL, I might as well show off the fruits of another thing I had tinkered with: modding custom music into Bionicle Heroes.

I know it's completely unintentional, but I swear this is the universe trying to convince me to dig my old handiwork out of retirement and do something with him.
