Zaap



Zaaps are gates that allow instant travel to other zaaps for a small fee. They are displayed on the world map as blue spheres.

To use a zaap, click on the zaap and choose "Use" from the menu. If you have never used the zaap before, it will be added to your list of known zaaps. You can only travel to a zaap that you have previously visited.

If you choose "Save" from the zaap menu, the zaap will be recorded as your "save point." Whenever death occurs or you surrender a battle, if you don't become a ghost, you will return to the last saved zaap. Also, if you use a Recall Potion, you will be teleported to your last saved zaap.

Zaap Prices
Zaap prices are based on the distance between the zaaps, using the integer value of a straight line (hypotenuse in right angle triangle) between the zaaps. Thus the distance from (-2,0) to (5,7) is sqrt( (5-(-2))^2 + (7-0)^2 ) = sqrt( 98 ) = 9. The base price for zaaping is (distance * 10) kama.

Aligned characters pay slightly different prices. They cannot zaap to regions of opposing alignment at all, but they pay only (distance * 1) to zaap to same-alignment regions.
