Fast Travel?

[Adeel]

I've been finding it really tedious to walk to a city that is two cities over and I would really like some kind of fast travel to the cities?

That will be fly when you get it. The game hasn't gotten that far yet. Just 2 more cities and we will have it.

Hope that comes with the upcoming update!

It would be nice if they had a dedicated mapper and just mapped everything. The events and special buildings come after as well as events.

I agree. But not a lot of people can edit the text files or are willing to. And many people find it troubling to use pokeditor.
Also, Nilllzz is almost always adding new things to the engine including mapping stuff. How tedious is it to go back and edit a bunch of maps that were already made?

That makes it sound kind of bulky. I mean yea going back to a place to edit areas that have been done doesn't sound like fun however we can compare people who build things in Minecraft and go back over their creations because of an update with a new block. It depends how badly you want it.

In an update I could see all the area's in Johto done. The update after that would just be finishing the details such as places (burnt tower, the light house, gyms), events (getting surf, getting medicine), and other miscellaneous things that need to be added. It may be tedious however programming a game is going back and editing code lol. They already added the moves but no data was made for them and put them as place holders.

I'm really eager to explore more of Johto in a 3D prospective. I can't wait to see how fly will be implemented.

Wonder if Fly will have a minigame or something implemented? Personally, I'd love to see Johto and Kanto from a few thousand metres in the air

Then our Pokemon can poop on everyone!

Lol I actually came up with a way this would work. To an extent. But Nilllzz would have to put in a scripting command to change the player's sprite. Pretty cool idea in my head though. Only issue would be warping the player to that area, and if they wanted to play in 3rd person XD

yuck its the fast travel system

i'd love to see the player hop on the pokemon sprite and ride it off into the air before warping though, then maybe follow the sprite down to the ground in the new area, or something

That'd work too. A minigame could be seperate and involving flying types, with you flying about collecting things or flying through hoops or something.

we talked about this a lot in another thread, about flying on your flying pokemon. it just seems way way too hard to put a flying minigame into the game as the out of world effect of fly. but its quite easy to add places in the world you can fly from. the difficult part is putting in the flying and something interesting to do during it.

i'm not the final word on this but fly should remain a quick travel option, not a taxi, imho

@DrahoHouston
Ah well, I can see your point. Will we eventually have some minigames, though? I can see that you'd want Johto and possibly Kanto done first, so I'm content to wait

there's a move called fly outside of battle its a fast travel

Is there? I haven't come across it
I still think some form of fast travel to the cities previously visited would make so much more of a difference. Instead of having to walk back to a city that takes an hour to get to because of so many wild Pokemon turning up and just the sheer distance of it, a fast travel option would make it so much more easier.
