- I hope there is a release for custom maps. It will add more fun on any server.
4. custom events - ????
-events like a treasure of crespo. Is it possible to add another level. Currently it has level c,b, and a. Is it possible to add s which means super hard. High level players will definitely find this as a challenge!
-I envy infernal dekaron which has 10 layers of hell, can I make my own? but I do not know how? Hope someone could release one.
- any possible suggestion for an event?
8. secret bosses scattered in different maps - ???
I find it more exciting to hunt for secret bosses located randomly on the map which drops special items. Is it possible?
9. Town invasion - ???
- this is also exciting, how could this be possible without GM commands.

1. You can customize maps by adding new npc's, changing lighting, changing textures, etc. But you cannot create a totally original map (decent one), unless you have a map editor.
4. Have to edit dekaronserver.exe to do that, and understand how instances work.
8. I don't think you can do it randomly without making a function in the dekaronserver.exe that will call random function and use the returned value for the bosses co-ords. But you could just create the same boss in a few different places on the map and put each one with a different respawn time.
9. Don't think there's anyway to do that. But you could create a thing like that, by adding lots of mobs all with about 5 mins respawn time maybe? And make the aggro like dungeons so lots of mobs follow people. I think that would kind of have the same affect.
EDIT: Forgot to say some of my ideas to make server funner xD.
- Make more challenging maps or dungeons (editing old ones), maybe they have certain valuable items so player will actually attempt it.
- Improve the UI (not just graphics but functions, though would require some editing of the dekaron.exe), or make other little client features like that. That could be useful to the players.
- Make challenging quests and comm quests, that gives prizes that are worth the effort.
- Host pvp tournaments, guild vs guild tournaments (though guild vs guild might be tricky to figure out how to do it, unless you do it like dekaron did have a few members form each go against eachother).
That's all i can think of at the moment XD, but basically things that are challenging and worth the effort i think players would enjoy and take them awhile to do it.
