Get rid of the "move" network link?

Mickey · 02-18-2008, 01:53 AM

The further along the game develops, the less I see a need for the "move" network link. You get no advantage by simply moving somewhere, and you can move wherever you want to accomplish a goal (attack an enemy, enter a shop, etc).

In addition, this network link burdens the server a bit more and uses unnecessary bandwidth for the end user. Any reason we should keep it?

Ok, I've gone ahead and removed it. If you disagree with that, please let me know and I'll listen.
