How can I know how much it takes from one place to another? I mean I wanna go to some other city but I can't just apper there. I read lore texts about time and I haven't seen it anywhere. So, how can I know how long will trip take?

...or you could use the Distance_Chart to try estimating it yourself.

(edit: In that {wiki} link, I had to replace the space with an underscore to make it work. Just thought that whoever does a great job with the coding would like to know :) )

I wanted to learn to count it myself.

Thank you.^^
Heh, guess it's hard to make it work otherways because even ordinary links (urls) does not support "space".

It shouldn't be too hard running a str_replace on what's in the {wiki} thing, compared to coding BBCode tables from scratch. I might be wrong, though; I don't know a lot about the phpBB forum system :)
