Hey I been trying to read the wiki and avoid asking questions but a couple of these problems have me stuck after a couple hours working on them.
1. My levels are looping online using a gmap, by this I mean if I shoot a bow or drop a bomb, the arrow will hit the edge of one level and go back on it. Is there a way around this or do you just design levels for it?
Example:

2. My map and minimap do not seem to work correctly online. I can get them to work offline but online is a different story. A lot of the info I have read has said that "MAPIMG mapname.png" in the gmap does not work anymore and I have to do it through the serveroptions but that seems to not work either. I have made a separate .txt file with just the mapnames but I am wondering if it's where I'm uploading these files thats causing the issue. I have put the map and text file in the levels folder, is there something I am missing?

3. The last problem I am handing is a simple understanding of scripts, mostly just which one you use for what. Say I wanted to make a basic GUI window that opened whenever the player typed "/menu". Do I use an NPC or a Weapon? Currently it looks like if I use a weapon, I have to have something in my inventory which would be very cluttery if I kept making scripts in it but if I use an NPC then doesn't that require them to be in the same area as the person for the script? How would I got about setting up a script that I want to simply always on the server?
Thanks a lot in advance to anyone that can help!
