My idea is that it would be nice to add this option. Comments and ratings are welcome.

Seems quite a bit like fast-travel in the "Elder Scrolls" series. Besides, what if there was a closed door and you just stopped halfway through. Seems like a lot more trouble than it's worth.

Indeed, pathfinding issues would be rampant, you really don't need this option and it wouldn't add anything to the game.

It would totally eliminate the need for teleportation runes, and any other form of transportation. I'd like it, but if you have the levels and/or the items, you can already get anywhere in RuneScape in under 2 minutes or so.

hmm if they did that there should be a limit like
you need a certain agility level to click there and the higher agility level the further u can use walk here

Of course you wouldn't be able to travel if a door was in your path. I've played Oblivion also and I wasn't going for the travel from "city to city" in one click. I was going more for, to walk to walk side of Varock or Falador with one click rather than the 4 or 6 clicks it takes. Nothing would change in game, just being able to click once on Relleka and walk from Camalot without the tons of clicks it takes. Understand or no?

I understand, but how many places are there really to go in Runescape without a door? Also, if your walking more than 5 minutes, you log out, so what was the use of saving all that clicking anyway?

I don't mind clicking all the time all the way while walking. Keeps me focused...kinda. :^o

That will be very usful to be honest.

I guess the constant clicking makes sure people are at their computer while playing rs lol, imagine how many people would click where they wanna walk to then just afk for a few mins and come back and be where they wanna be.

I think it would make people a lot more lazy than they already are.

I dont agree. Sorry

That would be AMAZING. Except that the game doesn't know where to go when part of a map isn't loaded on your screen. And thus the whole map would always have to be loaded...which could cause major lag.

Oh, true. I hadn't thought about that. This is the first legit flaw pointed out. . . I think you win. =p

Unless the map loaded while you were walking and running to the selected location like in game. . . but then again, the game doesn't allow clicks on places that aren't loaded. . . yeah I think you win.

Um... No it wouldn't... I would still teleport as much as I did normally... It's not like I'd walk back to, say, Ardougne from Isafdar... or even Varrok to Falador.
