"• If you happen to place a secret door, please keep in mind, that the player needs the according blessing in order for him/her to find it."
Does this mean, that you have to have blessing in order to find secret places? So there won´t be any badly visible switches like in dungeon master, MM6 or Grimrock?

Hey guys just wondered if you guys will give us a description of the dungeon before we enter (or choose to leave) like in MM6-8? Like if I clicked on the door of the dungeon it gives a description like: "This dungeon belongs to evil etc..." and I can either continue or leave...
forgottenl
Can a switch open a secret door? I mean can a switch open up a wall section that would otherwise be hidden? Perhaps if you had the blessing you could see it (but not open it) if you don't you can open it with the switch but then need to find the place that opened up?
Also what if a riddle contains to much text for the notes sections?
Can one have a conversation with an NPC? What options can they present the party in the dungeon?

I would prefer it if you guys didn't just choose three layouts then have us vote and choose *one* layout to use. Instead, I think it would be cool if the best ideas from multiple layouts are combined together. That way it really would be a community effort, instead of it being "one person's dungeon".
Maomor
yeah, why not use *all* community dungeons and create a giant-dungeon, each dungeon being a new floor :D

Designing own dungeon? What a great idea!

As I didn't find a way to make two Levels on one template, I used two and packed them into a .rar. Hope that's ok!

About secret doors: Is there no way to see secret doors without a blessing or you can see they are there and cant open them?
If you have the blessing then all secret doors are just not secret anymore?
Do I have to revisit all dungeons again after I get the blessing to make sure I didn't miss anything???

This is my dungeon, but I hope that I have used all the elements well.

Can you change the color of the floor or the wall in the template legend?
They look the same color, I'm color-blind.

@Coltrek: If using Openoffice, the walls are colour Orange 1 and the floors are color Orange 10. Hope that helps.
LE-Larissa
@forgottenl: Afaik, yes both should be possible (a switch can open up a section behind a wall) and yes you can have dialoges with NPCs.
@rpgguy: You don't see secret doors, if you don't have "spot secrets" (via spell, blessing or Hireling). ;)
Hope that helps!
More questions with more details will be answered soon! :)

Hi all, Thanks for all these comments and the first dungeons! :)
Some quick answers to your questions:
@Jsebela: Secrets can only be revealed with "spot secrets", which you get via spell, hireling or blessings, but there can still also be badly visible switches (two different things).
@AreYuDumb: A description of a dungeon is not yet in the current dev version (you are seeing a preview instead), but it's planned yes.

I'm not color blind, but in openoffice they have exactly the same color. But not in the jpg posted above, is there a way to edit it in OO, we cannot use it as it is...

@Franburns & Coltrek:
Sorry about that! It's fine for us if you just change the color in your Legend and in your proposal for either the wall or the floor. We will then know what you mean. :)
(I'll add that as an "/edit comment" to the above blog post for all others using OpenOffice, too.)

@Fransburns. If you look at the colour palette you'll see Orange 1 and 10 are different colors.

So when we put "M" for monster, were talking a group of monsters right, not just one? Just want to clarify so my dungeon isn't over or underloaded with monsters.
forgottenl
Theoretically 3 monsters can fit on a square. That means each M is between 1-3 monsters.
Shukfir
Can you explain how Teleports work? Do they need a Switch to be activated? If I enter teleport square, will it move me on another teleport square or on a free place near teleport? Can we bond teleport A with B, B with C and C with A?
Shukfir
And how Traps work? Do they deal little damage when we enter them? Or maybe kill everybody?

Devs. What is meant by bridges can be walked over or under but not both? Also, if bridges can be walked under but not over or vice versa does the passable and unpassable parts of them remain on the same map level?
FranBurns
I made a 2 level dungeon and zipped it, because my notes are a bit longer I included them also as txt files. I hope that helps :)

Could you give us feedback if it readable?(different Office version or whatever reason could break it...)
Thanks :)

Two more questions. Can the PCs see over the small walls as if they're fences but not pass them? Also, is the flat water passable (I'm assuming yes)?
KyleSeton
Here is my attempt. I found the template's "Note:" hard to use. The rest of the excel spreadsheet was cool. i notice the archway for indoors was missing in the key, so I justed used the outdoor one inside instead.
http://ge.tt/3lhXSIo/v/0?c
PS: Some of the other ones look awesome. I'm excited for Monday voting!!

@KYLESETON
Yeah I had problems with the template "Note" as well. For anyone else who is having issues with it, there are a couple of ways to get around it. The best is to right click on the template and then click on "insert comment" and reshape the comment box to fit over the template. When your done, right click on the template box again and click on show comment.
The other way is to just place a "word box" over it. Its not as effective, but it is easier than the comment box process.

Hey all, thank you for the great contributions you sent in so far! Here are some answers to questions that you've been asking:
Comptonclayton: "So when we put "M" for monster, were talking a group of monsters right, not just one? Just want to clarify so my dungeon isn't over or underloaded with monsters."
Yes, we're talking about either single monsters or groups of monsters, so don't worry, the amount of monsters in the dungeon will be well-balanced.

Shukfir: "Can you explain how Teleports work? Do they need a Switch to be activated? If I enter teleport square, will it move me on another teleport square or on a free place near teleport? Can we bond teleport A with B, B with C and C with A?"
Each dungeon has one destination (doesn't have to be another teleport). Teleport connection is flexible, so you can connect A to B to C. At the current state of development, the party has to step on a teleport and activate it in order to use it.

Shukfir: "And how do traps work? Do they deal little damage when we enter them? Or maybe kill everybody?"
Traps have several different effects that affect the whole party and have one or two parameters (damage and chance). That means, yes, they can deal different amounts of damage, and yes, they can kill (but don't have to).

Twofoldsilence: "What is meant by bridges can be walked over or under but not both? Do the passable and unpassable parts of them remain on the same map level?"
When setting a bridge you have to decide whether the party will be able to walk over or under it. The other part will not be part of the level. However, you can create a second level that represents the opposite side, so that in level 1 you walk over the bridge, while in level 2 you walk under it.

Twofoldsilence: "Can the PCs see over the small walls as if they're fences but not pass them? Also, is the flat water passable?"
Yes, the small walls are for keeping the party from walking to places they shouldn't walk into, but it's possible to look over them. In order to walk over the flat water you need the respective blessing.

Can switches open "normal doors" ?
FranBurns
With pleasure :)
@LE-Lore " the small walls .... possible to look over them"
Well I intended the small walls as normal dungeon walls..with a closed ceiling (eg like: https://static14.cdn.ubi.com/udev/prod/img/news/fighting-system.jpg ) nothing to "look over it" is that possible?
and the high walls the same but with a higher ceiling...
From my understanding (and intention on my map) only the outdoor tiles would have no ceiling but a skybox.. Could you clarify this please? :)

Have fun discovering something a little bit different. There is a lot of moving between level 1 and 2, but (hopefully) without any backtracking. I aimed for some quality and classic puzzles balanced by combat. For Enshammon!
