Nice job on this one. I like the fact that you don't edit out any mistakes in the process as it also shows what doesn't work and some of the limitations. I've never actually used the map view for walking players through cities or dungeons because I figured it would be too tough to do. This makes it look reasonably easy.
Thanks for doing it. |

I figure that if I edit out every little mistake then the videos will be so edited they'll make no sense.
Walking players through a map is really easy on two monitors. Doing it where you need to keep flipping back and forth between two windows was harder than when you can see both screens. my Realm Works videos https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZU...4DwXXkvmBXQ9Yw |

After thinking about it a little more, I also added an "Occasional Visitors" heading to cover those people I did not want to show up as regular residents. I'm listing them as subtopics now but I'm thinking that there should really just be a cast list of visitors names with the actual topics shown as residents of somewhere else. |

There really isn't a perfect solution, yet but one of the reasons I'm so enthusiastic about RW is how much better it makes things. my Realm Works videos https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZU...4DwXXkvmBXQ9Yw |

First level of expansion of tree Second Level of expansion Third level of expansion Pros to this system (for me): -easy to navigate for data entry -easy to mass enter information -clear delineation of information Cons: -relationships can be tedious to work with -the nested nature of the approach can lead to space issues when trying to link items as there is no left/right scroll bar in the linking dialogue I'm happy with how it all works. I wish it could just read my brain and connect everything with how I intuitively understand the connections, but we're not quite there yet.

It isn't perfect but it is better than any of the other systems I've tried. One thing it does show is just how weak RW's relationship system is. Another thing I've put on the list to lobby for improvements once the CM is out. my Realm Works videos https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZU...4DwXXkvmBXQ9Yw |
