Mapping and such definitely would require some server work big time. If I ever imm I have do considered building a client that includes mapping, status window, char window and target window. On the map you could have auto scan basically showing what's in you range. Your current target would have its own window. On top of that each player could add art to their avatar and char sheet and others could see them. The map might have very basic imagery showing the type of area it is. It would be a lot of work but not be too hard. The hardest part would be integrating with the original code base probably. I don't know that anyone, myself included, would have the time to build such a project though and even if we did it will be years before we could get to the imm point to even consider it. It's a nice dream though that could be possible.
