More's the pity because it amounts to almost a thousand man hours, mine, down the tubes. And I don't have enough man hours left to finish even if 3.5 were completed this summer. As I've said before, time is a non renewable resource. I can't get a refund on the lost time. I could use 41 days.

Let me add I've gotten tons of enjoyment from TOAW from it's first release up to and including 3.4.

His last post was 9/3/12 - no change from last time this was discussed. He had been logging in every day, but now hasn't since 3/16/13.

I only ask as I lost a child 20 years ago and it still hurts but it was only when I got help did the pain go away.

Status: offline 		Bob is correct. I do not know what Ralph's problems are. I was trying to point out that most men "bottle up" their problems and will not reach out for help. It is normally up to a mate to give a hand / push in the right direction. In my case I was given a professional questionnaire that stated at the top that if you scored more than 100 points you needed help. At the half way point I was at 263 points. I did not finish the questionnaire but I did go and get help.

Ralph has done a lot for us as a "community" and we owe him. There is not much that I can do here from Australia, but you guys who live in the USA and known him personally can contact him and give moral support.

But, yes, time is not renewable and personal difficulties can hit hard without warning. Financially speaking, I think TOAW has probably saved me... a few thousand bucks in alternative, probably bad entertainment costs. But then, for all the hours spent playing, making maps... we could all be millionaires. Very unhappy millionaires, because... we would still be wanting to play TOAW.

Status: offline 		When I use ODD to overlay a grid on my maps the grid is much too faint to be seen. I can see in Panamas' example (post #8) this is not a problem. My version of ODD is 3.1 - any help ? Thanks

He showed me what he did a couple years ago. He lays the first grid. Leaves the program. Goes back in and loads the map with grid and then just offsets the grid by one for each direction. I banged my head on the wall and left.

I'll see what I can find out regarding the map. The rest isn't mine to say.
