For issues with coordinate-based systems, check out the Battletech
MUSHes. I don't know any addresses off of the top of my head, but
www.mudconnector.com should point you in the right direction. They use a
system just like the one you described. It's really not bad at all. You
change it so that facing is relative to your direction. So something
like:
heading 90
facing 90
would be looking south while heading east. I think people generally think
in those terms anyway. Do you have a GUI and/or joystick control?
