Scried, accessible parts of levels can then be highlited as such on the minimap, making it easy to clicktravel to them if you *really* want to be comprehensive. Seeing as the main gripe here seems to be the tedium of going back and covering every little nook and cranny of a level to make sure you didn't miss anything, how about once you've explored/uncovered (meaning sighted, via LoS or magically, not necessarily traversed) at least 90% (95%?) of the *accessible* squares on a level, you can activate the Orb and ask Elisa to kindly 'scry out' the remainder of the map, including all inaccessible squares, and give you either a quantitative statement about remaining mobs/loot (e.g, ' Almost there! You only missed 2 enemies and 3 items - well done!') or qualitative (e.g, = ' Ooooh, I sense treasure! : D' = ' This place is safe, no doubt about it!' = ' Phew, you've sure done a great job, but don't quit just yet!' = ' OMG I THINK IT SAW ME : ((( *severs connection*' lol.) It almost makes all other roguelikes unplayable to me because of the lack of autoexplore.Д¬opypasta from my post a few minutes ago in the ' Defining Features of ToME4' thread: This is a great game, but the auto explore feature is the one biggest thing I miss from Crawl.

I think TE4 would benefit greatly from this feature. If you have never tried it, you should be glad, because you have no idea what you're missing. I would not be able to play the game without that feature it makes it that much better. It's a lot like shift+direction travel, except it won't stop when it hits a wall it will turn around and go somewhere else. It just runs around the level until something happens to stop it. It simply makes it much quicker and less tedious to explore levels. It doesn't make any decisions for the player. If it goes down a hall and sees that it's a dead end, it will turn around and go somewhere else. Basically, you hit a hotkey, and your character will automatically run around until a monster comes into your LoS, or if some other situation happens (a buff running out, etc). As you may or may not know, Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup has a great autoexplore feature that makes the game so much less tedious to play.
