Just out of curiosity, as a builder, would you rather work with a vnum system like smaug's or a coordinate plane?

Coordinates would be eaiser to visualize, but people are familar to the linear format of the others. How many builders would be willing to switch to a coordinate system if offered?

Well, why not have both? My co-coder made us an offline java area editor that lets us draw out our maps in a coordinate grid, but the area is written out with vnums. Since I prefer offline building anyway, it's the best of all possible worlds ;)

Long story short: if you take the benefit of coordinates to solely be in their visualization, it's not a mutually exclusive choice.
