As I recall you used to be able to select "Show all nodes" in the /datum listing for the map editor and such, then place these other objects on the map provided they were atoms. However this doesn't seem to be the case any more, or I'm not doing something right. Any help? (For the record I'm using atom/structure with a parent_type of /turf)

Doesn't matter how long you've spent in BYOND, a lot of (*&#;$ have proved that.

So I think that what you explained still works. | |

Why not just call it /structure? Might be it, but not sure. | |
