Then the only way to notice that you're at the edge is if your boat is hitting the edge of the map-picture.

So does anybody know why there appear to be places where one is blocked while travelling at sea?
I guess that these can be invisible walls made by PD to stop spreading cantr population. Another idea: protected areas of the cantr world not yet created, but already decided to be islands rather than sea.

Apparently, going north or south all the time will make you eventually end up where you started. (If the map one of my chars found is true)

Hmm, it's weird if your map says it's possible but joo says there's a barrier. Although if the newbie islands were generated then it would make sense if there was a barrier around them, easier than making a new map. Unless they were placed on the negative region and reaching 0 on the map makes you teleport to the other edge.

It is true. One of my chars has met two Spaniards who have successfully circumnavigated the world. Not droppin' any names here....but they're almost home.

Actually, the Spanish island is quite advanced already. A first attempt at a full Cantr map was published in the last ten Cantr-years, combining many first-hand and second-hand sources.
I dunno how much time ago, about twenty Cantr-years I think, I remember having an argument with Capt. Gooseberry at the distant and then unidentified coasts of Pok about where Noniwrok was. He maintained it was North, and I said South. We never settled that argument before parting in opposite directions.

If you are referring to the same Spanish map I have seen,
it shows a more-or-less complete north-south ribbon of
the map (which not surprisingly passes through the Spanish
homeland). The actual world map is twice as wide (east-west)
as the Spanish map. For example, the largest landmass in the
world is completely missing in the Spanish map I have seen.

One of my characters has circumvented cantr in both directions north/south and east/west, while another has run into one of those invisible walls. *scratches her head, perplexed*
