How To update

Coordinates are listed in 'kays', and input as x,y. The continent of Candar for example is 3000x kays by 1500y kays in total. The mapping page shows your current x,y location under the map when you hover over it with your mouse. Make sure you are not scrolled down on the page, or your web browser may report the wrong position. Coordinates are read into the mapping system from top down, and only when they are enclosed in parenthesis. This way previous coordinates can be discussed without being mapped.

Example Entry

The following is all made up data for purpose of example

(x coordinate, y coordinate, short description of town/city) optional comments

(2500,700,Lerris's home in Waundernaught) This is Lerris's home in the city of Waundernaught on Recluce. As referenced on page 43

(2480,710,Sardit's workshop in Waundernaught) This is Sardit's workshop as referenced in chapter 3, based on a 25kay walk by Lerris as referenced in pages 50-75. There was some discussion in the past that 2520,710 was the coordinates but as WillyJenkins pointed out the sun was behind Lerris as he was walking and therefore he must have been headed west instead of east)

(2000,500) This is a turn in the road. NOTE: there is no description in this entry, so a dot will not be generated.

FAQ

Q. Where are my updates?!
A. The maps are updated every minute. You may need to reload your browser (shift-reload) to see changes

Q. How do I plot points on the other continents?
A. There is a forth optional comma separated field that defaults to Candar. So you do (1000,2000,Some_City_In_Hamor, Hamor)

Q. How do I put images in the tooltips?
A. It is keyed off the names, if you say "westwind" in the description it will pull the Westwind graphic from the images folder. For now I will add the images to the folder myself. Please send me any you have!

Q. What do the arrows mean?
A. It is the direction of travel.

Q. What is with the Xs?
A. It is not really an X, its 2 arrows. The character traveled both directions on the same route.
