How to find where you are on the world map

Postby GalacticCow » Tue May 23, 2017 5:20 pm

Or just in general. I can't find any public maps that include kingdoms and villages. I know nearby villages and kingdoms and have my local map, but I have no idea if, say, I'm near an edge/corner or something.

Using this client: viewtopic.php?f=49&t=40400

You can find your location by clicking the 5th button on your minimap.

Here is the world map: http://odditown.com/haven/map/#x=0&y=0&zoom=4

Player created/maintained.

There is no public map that includes realms/villages with constant accuracy that I'm aware of.

I already use Amber client.

The button says "unable to determine your current location".

Also, how do people know where big villages/realms are on the forums then? For instance, people talk about "dis" or "akihabara" or "odditown" but are these well-known enough to have people know where they are? I also seem to recall waaay back like in world 4 or something, having maps that had village names on them, though I might be mistaken....

Are you outside when you press the button? It doesn't work in caves or in houses.

As to the rest: People have mapped them manually. I know the location of 3 kingdom capitals personally, and I could point them out on a map. If someone took the time asking around enough, they could likely get the majority of the capitals on a map. This is what they've done in the past.

Loftar had a widget of some kind that tracks realm claims. But it's not pretty or public. Presumably at some point there will be such a tool but right now there isn't.

Got it, it just needed a few minutes to work in the first place. Thanks.

I'd like to revive this post, now that we're in World 12..
Is there any map for the new world?
If not: Is someone up for the task of doing it?
I can help with the little I've discovered, I'm sure more people will love to help on this..
