+Tim Shorts asked me to contribute to the next issue of
The Manor (#5). I am planning to submit three different items:
- A haiku (chosen especially for +matt jackson ).
- A short article on mapping stairs. It would basically be some simple plugin equations for figuring out the horizontal run for stairs, based on the vertical distance (and the reverse, as well) for steep, regular and shallow stairs.
- Three or four rooms with puzzles, traps or other interesting feature that can be dropped into a larger building or dungeon. This would go along with an article that Tim is planning on writing.
While I have little desire to publish gaming stuff (much to the dismay of
+Rob Conley ), I do enjoy a much more limited role as contributor and proofreader.
