What the title says is there anyway to make an indoor foundry with more than 50 rooms? Or can you make a map with 50 and create a new map with say a portal to the other one and make another 50 all on 1 quest or is it something where id have to make one than go to foundry make a new quest and continue off from there? Info on this would be greatly appreciated!

    Yes, you can have a portal go to a second map.....but really? 50 rooms? I have a quest that is almost an hour long with no backtracking, the two "dungeon" style maps are both at least 10-15 minutes long....and they only have around 5-8 rooms.
    My quest was deleted in July of 2013. There were no issues, it had not violated any rules. Was deemed a bug. That quest is still missing.

    That is why they make big rooms and allow you to use walls. You can put a big room on the map, and go in and add interior walls and make it appear to be multiple rooms.

    Also, be careful if you going to put in that many rooms. Lots of rooms does not make your quest good. You have to decorate those rooms. Fifty rooms. Only 1500 details to work with. I know that would seem like it would be enough, but trust me, you can use up a hundred details in one room if you wanted to.

    Awaiting a serious response from the developers on the abuse of the review system by other authors.

    Not that I've ever done it, but some of the sewer rooms are very small "crosser" rooms intended as intersections. If you placed those in a grid, you could reach 50 no problem and have a look that isn't really achievable any other way, getting a heavily arched area reminiscent of the Alhambra or other similar architecture.

    You can add a second map in the story tab using the + button on the left side. Transitioning between them is done in that tab as well.
