A Land Far Away

Any chance of one of these for MS?

Ie: We are working on it! But we need a map for each island so it complicates things a bit.

Excellent. I fully appreciate that MS is a challenge to map out, which is precisely why it should be done. Cool, as they say, beans.

I started the travel map idea but the problem is the off isle islands, i suppose the only way to do it is to have a focus on just the main bodies of land... maybe this is where i went wrong.

I too started to lay out mini-map grabs in AT arrangement but I don't have access to all areas - some areas are no-go IC anyway (Skaug) - so quickly gave up. Taking into account that MS has a very confusing AT network that is meant to represent, in some cases, a week's travel time or more, the MS server map can't be as contiguous as the BG one. Perhaps treat every physical isle as a server map in its own right and then show the links between those mini-map clusters in a more high-level 'All Islands' map.

I like this idea. If you can get us started with the areas you do have access to that would be awesome.

A-ha. Nice try there, you sly devil.

[quietly]I'll see if I kept any of it.[/quietly]

Alrighty then. Couldn't find my old map so had a run round today and put together the Gwynneth Isle mini-map cluster...



Sadly a number of the areas don't match up to the cardinal compass points properly so they had to be rotated. Maps rotated are marked with a white asterisk in the top right corner.

thanks looks great! Should help people walk around.

I wasn't going to do the other isles, but you get the general idea: make mini-map clusters like ^that one and just include where the 'exit' points are that lead to the other isles.

Moray Island's AT is buried in the docs here:

Oh yes, forgot about that one on account of it being virtually INVISIBLE for all intents and purposes.
