:::That'd probably work. Just try to keep things with 2 characters because 3 will go out of the box. I understand there are like 130 trails now? Would like a subnumber on an alpha work for folks? Like T<sub>1a</sub>, T<sub>1a</sub> for two trailheads starting on the same map, T<sub>1b</sub>, T<sub>1b</sub>. Where the big letter signifies trailhead 1, 2, etc. starting off the same map, number & letter combo in sub is specific to the trail ie trailnumber + a(start) or b(end). Or something less confusing?--[[User:Lyathe|Lyathe]] 14:07, 11 March 2008 (CDT)

Old info

Added the listings I have for the trails, but it's been well over a year since I've played a Ranger so some of the data may be outdated. My Dirge to Haven Ferry data duplicated the Dirge to Kaerna data, so it's possible the Dirge>Kaerna is the wrong one if someone's able to double check those locations.

Linking Ranger Trails to Ranik Maps

Had an idea that if we can number the entries in the Ranger Trail list and have those numbers correspond to the Ranik map where the trail can be found. We could pick 2 colors for the spot on the map (one color for entrance and one for exit) and put the corresponding number for the trail in there. --Connor 13:55, 11 March 2008 (CDT)

That sounds reasonable. I was planning on doing a similiar thing with coloring and just plan clicking on that room would take you to the end. Only request I have about numbers is to make them 100, 101, etc. so that they don't conflict with maps already having numbers on them. Problem with that, though is that it will not fit in the room-box. Would just two different colors be sufficient? If people are on the map, they know at least that there is a trail there or not.--Lyathe 13:39, 11 March 2008 (CDT)
