sweet i love monopoly lol, i hope u can replicate the board good enough and the move thing, like it moves the screen when u roll or w/e. im really looking forward to the map so please hurry lol. Then maybe ur done with that 1 u can make like monopoly disney ver with the char and other stuff, like lotr ver, i hope u can give them the metalic color on the units like the game pieces. so just look for the right color to be metalic. well looks great and good luck with it, a member of clan Oo is working on it too so it should be pretty good of a map. ttyl

Hmm monopoly... I LOVE MONOPOLY!!!
Maybe if theres tooooooo many triggers u can get rid of the trading system and redo it so that ppl can MANUALY do the trading sooo if ppl wanna be wangs and rip ppl off (EX. person gives 1000$ and person don't trade prop after he gets 1k$) let them.. then all the ppl can leave or make fun of his/her mother and PISS him/her off LOL its but... thats just an example of what u may wanna do if triggers start to get tight..
Happy MapMaking

Snipe isn't part of the project, but he is the moral support.
THough it is mostly copy/paste triggers, we're (or now I'm, I suppose) still working out the bugs with the basic property triggers. I'm constantly having to add more switch variables to make sure people aren't charged rent when it isn't their turn and so on.

Have you looked at the rest of the thread? I've gone through 3 partners and immense bugs. I already know how long the damn map will take. You're one of at least 50 people who have commented on how slow this process is. I'm sorry it takes me forever; you try making this map while juggling over 12 hours of school daily with no good map-editing program to work with.
I'm not really mad at you, but I'm just more annoyed at how many people have given me that same response in this thread. Yes, we're slow. Sorry we don't fit your needs.
Oh and I haven't updated the percent thing since I first made this topic.

Its no joke, I'm actually working on Monopoly once again. Now that I've graduated from high school and the Academic Decathlon season is over, I know I will definately have time to work on/finish Monopoly.
Now I know most of you wont want to go through the 26 pages of banter, so I'll sum it up for you:
- During this excursion, I have had a total of three partners: D_Scypher, Legacy(U), and Oo.EviL.oO, with help from (U)Bolt_Head and RexyRex. At the moment, I am working alone.
- The map stopped for awhile due to school and laziness (I mean who really finds it fun to copy over 300 triggers?).
- I haven't released a Beta version for this yet because there would be nothing to do really aside from rolling the die and moving around.
There was discussion of finding a more efficient way of making all the property triggers. If you have a better idea, please share it. Here's what we came up with over the past year:
In greater detail:
And that's about it.
I will keep you all posted with detailed accounts of what has been added and such. Right now all the property triggers for Mediterranean Avenue and Baltic Avenue are complete. The trading triggers, dice triggers, and movement triggers are done as well. Next up I have to just copy 400 more triggers.
Again, if you have a better way of doing those 734891234612 triggers, trust me I'd love to know how.

Haha it may be the best one ever because its the only one. Everyone else who tried to make a Monopoly map completely gave up and quit. And ironically all of those other maps are similar to this one in that they've got the basics down but all of the property stuff is just so tedious.

Yeah, I suppose. The only things I'm missing from the game is the ability to mortgage properties (mostly because I got lazy, though I may add the mortgage feature once all the property triggers are done) and the income tax choice of taking off only a % of your income (considering we can't have SC remove a % of your income).

Yp, your money is represented by your minerals. And your gas represents how many properties you own.
I also have a leaderboard that displays both ore and properties at the same time, just to make it easier for display purposes (I'm one of the few that hates leaderboards changing every 5 seconds, though I may have to do that by the end of this).

Well considering it took a year to get this far, and it could have been finished during that time, I can't give anyone an estimated time of release.
I could tell you it will be done in a week or done in 6 months, but both would be complete bullcrap. So I'm sorry, but I'd rather not make up a random date for people to look forward to. I'm working on this as much as possible, and it will be released when I'm done.
I'll keep up with my updates, so people know the progress. But other than that, you guys will just have to wait and see.
