For anyone who is interested, here's a tarball with a map of the second world*, as it turned out in the end:
[Mirrored below, so taken out from here]
It's divided into the various supergrids for practical reasons. I tried combining them all into one huge image (35000x35000 pixels) but the only program I could find which was at all capable of opening it without erroring out or crashing was the Gimp, and even that took 15 minutes or so to load the image. Each supergrid is 5000x5000 pixels. There's also a file displaying the civilization levels over the map. The RoB is at pixel 2000, 2000 in the file sg-0-0-map.png.
The file is 18 MB large. Keep in mind that it's on the same server as everything else, so bandwidth will suck right now, and it will drain everything else, so please download it responsibly. If someone can mirror it, please do. :)
* It's actually the fifth world, but I wouldn't expect you to know about that. ;)

Re: Map of the second world
Thanks Trav, but I should say that I updated the file slightly since I gave it to you; your version doesn't contain the census map. It's a small detail, of course, but worth mentioning.

Re: Map of the second world
What are with the three supergrids that look primarily made of mudflat, with much wider rivers? I don't remember ever noticing those, or anyone else commenting on seeing anything like those grids.

Re: Map of the second world
Those were three experimental supergrids that I added to the far east. The experiment wasn't particularly exciting, in the end. :)JugaBro wrote:What are with the three supergrids that look primarily made of mudflat, with much wider rivers?

Re: Map of the second world
Can we get more of these maps later at monthly intervals? I know I'm likely asking too much most likely, but I'd like to start branching out for areas that appear to have people working so we can start networking towns together. (For the new world that is)
I now see what it is, however my request still stands.
