Sounds like a neat map pack idea.
When I made kobold dungeon it was around 100 X 100. I had to split it into
three different maps because by the time a person got to the last door before
the finale things would lag really bad. Ian had worked on the problem and got
some good results. My hope is that the hundred X hundred map might work out
now. I would say maybe half that would be safe for the moment.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Hi all
So I'm planning another rather large map in another side project I'm working
on. The jist of this is that your someone from outer space and your ship has
crashed onto a strange, multi-environment planet. Your ship was nearly broken
and it's pieces were scattered about the planet.
My question is, using sight_range and wait_untill_enemy_in_sight, what's the
largest possible map I could have without making the engine explode violently?
Aka, minimal lag, etc. I wasn't going to go over 1000. Keep in mind this is
ment to be a sandbox adventure. So the map would be pretty big. total defeat
wouldn't be possible, however if you die you will need to respawn yourself from
the last cloning station you went to.
