From what I've read in previous posts, it seems that different maps vary only in their positions on the z-axis. Is there a way to make a completely independent map, and, if so, what can be used to move a person to the map.
You can make two different map files, or you can just use the map size editor to change the z level and use the little left to right arrows to scroll through the maps. And to change the levels you would have to set the loc directly:

mob/verb/Change_level()
usr.loc = locate(1,1,2)

So when I make a "new" map, it truly is an independent map? How do you move the person from one map to the other? (since there is more than just x, y, and z to take into consideration)

When you make a new map file the z level of your exsisting maps goes up by one, all you have to consider is the x,y,z of the maps.

. . . but they both show coordinates as (X,X,1).

That's because the map editor shows the maxz of the map file you selected, you can have many maps in one map file.

got it, thanks
