Young people cant read maps

In order to get the map arrow / home marker you need to be able to read the entire name of the map.
This means if a map is called "AB" a 2 year old can get the marker, but if it is called "ABCDEFG" you need to wait until you are 7 until you can get the marker.
If a very old person writes a long map name, only other very old people are able to get the marker.

I am not sure if this is a feature or a bug, but i think it could be feature.
You can make maps more secret by giving them a long name.

Re: Young people cant read maps

If you can read any map at 13 it seems good, cant imagine a 4 year old reading a map and going in the wilderness...

But then a 4 year old can still read a map that says "OIL", maybe there should be a hard limit on what age you can read any map, or make it depend on genetic fitness, so the score gets some usefulness, the better the score the smarter you are, the younger you can read a map.

I blame GPS.  Kids these days have lost the art of map-reading.

I know! those young whipper snappers can't hunt rabbits to save their life! Needing bait humbug.

Re: Young people cant read maps

Back in my day, when you wanted a rabbit, you just went out and killed it with your bare hand.

Who needs rabbit snares when you have quick reflexes?   Don't even get me started on using bait ...

Re: Young people cant read maps

Back in MY day, we ate carrots for every meal, and we were just fine! Riftennials these days want "yum bonuses" and "efficient resource management"! Pathetic!
