PHP FAST map system

Post by hallsofvallhalla »

Decided I would work on a new map system strictly in PHP. I wanted one that will build faster than the FS one.

I am actually proud of this one. With one Query I can build a nine square grid with an unlimited possibility of terrain styles. A cron will have trees growing and players will be logging them but the query will never suffer from the image changes. It is 8 times faster than the FS map system. Will share it once it is complete.

thanks! only 2 days in it and it is turning out to be a game, everything is falling into place and I am using strictly PHP and MYSQL so I may I think I will get a early release on this one for beta and slowly add to it as I go, then maybe have a open source release for everyone ;)

BTW this one has space travel and multiple planets to visit.
