    So ok I woke up a few minutes ago to go to the washroom and while I was there I got this awesome idea for macro mod but it'll take a ton of time to create. But first I'd like opinions.

    So here's my idea: region display macro. :D it'd be really easy to set up but would take a very long time to add all the regions to it. Basically it would work with your current coordinates and would tell you without the use of flint or /rg i whether or not you are in a region or not. :D

    What do you think?

    and let me know if you wanna try it out :p

    Do you really want to update your macro every day when new towns are formed?

    sprayware I believe a //Much// easier way is to have a macro to check your region once every 30 seconds, then thread that information into a display box : D

    for example, that times 100 players with the macro equal server rg spam, possible lag? D:

    Nuuuuu thank you. I've done 20 regions in 30 minutes already. ;)

    There won't ever be 100 people on this server at a time using that macro, I doubt more than 5 people would be using it at a time. What Harry suggested is much more practical, and spending 10+ hours so you don't have to do /rg i is a tad excessive, isn't it?

    This macro could be community created. You could develop a macro that allows users to add there towns in. It would mean that they would type /rg info and it would store the necessary info into variables and then you could manipulate the variables so that they would store it in a txt document in such a way you could simply paste that info into the main macro, here is an example if that was a little confusing.

    You would copy the contents of something.txt (the file created by the macro people can use to store there towns) to the main macro. What users could do is post there something.txt file on the forums for you to add.

    It is just a concept and it is entirely possible from what I know. I could help develop the macro if you want.
