I decided to open source code for all parts of the project, which are server-side service (using Kotlin/Spring Boot backend and JS/Vue.js frontend) and client integration
Features:
- Minimap images are sent automatically from the client
- Automatic zoom level generation
- Live-mode available (you can see online characters moving on the map)
- Ingame markers can also be automatically sent to the client (including quest givers and custom markers)
- Geolocation available for the client
- Metrics and server state can be monitored through the Humio
- Good performance (easily handled ~40 clients sending updates at the same time at the W11 start)
- Cheap maintenance (or even free - can be run inside free-tier t2.micro aws instance)
- Optimal stability (worked nearly the whole W11 (a year) with only few reboots)
- No more manual merges and updates!
