aah I see what you mean Sir. He did not lock the topic, though, as he said. On Invisionfree it was impossible to lock polls, I am happy SMF let us do it.

And thanks for the info Hot Dog. It would be nice, though, in Campaing mode, that if the user chooses unexplored, that he is given an extra reward for the slightly increased difficulty if he wins the game.

How do you think the fog of war is going to apear on the screen?

Black square tiles.  Like I said, for an explored area, it will be inverse colors so you can remember what it is you saw.

Gotcha, i was just wondering if the border was going to be rounded or cloudy looking or anything like that, although im not used to what a typical cloud of war looks like

No, you're right, typically fog of war is cloudly.  I may end up doing something like that.  I at first objected to the thought in order to save processing power, but with the method I'm using, I don't think that's going to be a problem.

Whatever the case, line of sight "radiuses" are going to be square instead of circular.  What this means is, if you can see 3 units in front of you, you will be able to see 3*sqrt(2) units diagonally from you.  THIS is to save power.

Try to go with squares at first, like Joltima RPG, then if speed allows you more, maybe try round parts like Warcraft II
