New skill idea ( also has new items ) and new features.

[Shujin]

I was driving home from work and was looking at the names of the roads on the military base and noticed they were all basicly in a grid, 1 road named E-15 next E-16 etc then i turned and went down another road and it was D-16 etc.

so this kinda sprung an idea into my head.

a map / navigation / plotting skill.

people who have the skill can plot points on a map purchasable from maybe a new stores? called NaviCorp ( dont think NeXT should do anything with maps even though they own genreps and vehicles )

anyway. the higher the TL the map the more area it covers. the higher TL the skill the more points you can place. and there are limits to how far one point can reach to another.

example:

people without the skill would pay someone with the skill to plot them a map from Neocron to MB without having to go near TH due to the turrets. the map could then be activated, and should only be useable 5 times
( because it would make the skill obsolete if everyone had a map of something already , and wouldnt be fair if it could only be used once and someone crashes and it is deactivated )
it should be either be activated like that or be like an implant, that can only be implanted once and once it is taken out is broken. ( should take the eye implant slot )

anyway when in use it has the dotted line like Navray on the floor for you to follow to your destination.

how do you like this idea?

ah right ... so its like a set of compass bearings .. me likes

i think these shoul be avail in shops and given out in epics

like:

NC > MB - SAFE!
TH > TG - UNSAFE!

or that dumbass bit in BT epic thru the DoY's

I like it sounds like a great idea.. I dont quite understand the shop concept.. but the overall 'points' selection sounds cool :)

Doesn't sound "fun"

Simple is often better I think.

i really doubt a majority of people like looking at the map every 10 mins when they are trying to get somewhere...
