Sample objects - maps

When a character is holding an item that is type map, they will be able to use the map command providing they are within the vnum range specified in value1 and value2. The map below for Waterdeep will work in the main area of Waterdeep. It wont work in attached areas because they are not between 8000 and 8999 which is the vnums of the main Waterdeep area file. So there is some limitations. Also if there is an official Forgotten Kingdoms map created in character by one of our players, please link to the URL in an extra description.

You could also do an ascii art representation of the map. This map below will still work in Hartsvale with the map command because the vnums have been set in value1 and value2.
