Re: World Map

Post by mvgulik »

Always hoped to see some small map-image which would show a general last-updated view of the world.
- One pixel per mini-map. (image would be ~450x450 in size)
- With a relative large time period between timed points. Like two months. (or perhaps one HnH year, ~54 real days).
- The same relative large time period for the update frequency of that map.

Something like this comes to mind.
Color1: Mini-map tile updated in last two months. (makes sense to than also update this map every two months)
Color2: Two to four months.
Color3: Four to six months.
Color4: Six months to one year. (or continue with the same time scale, up to ...)
ColorX-: Older than one year, or some other point ...
(Color0: Never/background)

Not sure if the needed date-data is available for something like this for the current world (time backtracking).
For a new world that would not necessarily be needed (if one uses just one fixed time-scale jump period).

Not to sure about using/going for Uploaded or Updated(changed) in this case.

Anyway, just doing a bit of day dreaming.

PS: I'm getting a lot of "Excepted grid version 2, got version: 3" lines while running the map uploaded. (~90% or more, compared to segments send lines)

What are the dimensions (in tiles) of the map sections at max zoom?

Should be 64 by 64 tiles based on displayed map coordinates.

Yea, loftar did an update to the map files to show ledges. I just haven't gotten around to updating my things to work with it.
Not sure when I will get to doing it either.

Not sure if the right place to ask - is there some working map server solution? With amber broken there seems to be no way to upload the map tiles to APXEOLOG's / andyleap's server, and the uploader in this thread is not compatible with them.

I'm trying to hack Amber's upload logic into this uploader, but it's bit more complicated than I thought, so maybe there is another solution?

It's all set to go, feel free to download the new updater and send files in.
Might be a bit before anything shows up, but that is typical.
