No, this suggestion didn't make me making this, it was planned long before the suggestion. And it is the part of the longer project, which includes variable sight of range, like binoculars, observation towers, etc.Sho wrote:(...) people get jumpy when staff implement significant changes only a day after they are suggested, with no real chance for players to get in their feedback.

thanks Marol, the ability to change to the old square map is great, thanks!
However, I have a character who's sailing (my other sailing character at the moment), when the circle map shows up, the bottom 1/3 of the map shows all water, even though it is suppose to be land there. Also, my location on the circle map is different than my location on the square map. (on the circle map, I'm right against the coast, while on the square map, I am a good distance away).
If it's something that's only happening to me, I can try to give you more details....
thanks!

Awww... I'd like to think that I had some part in influencing this change. Oh, well. The false-hope thing's coming back...

Thanks, Marol. Fast fixes like these are appreciated!
This combines the more realistic circular view with the advantages of the old style map.
One question on a small thing (one pixel actually):
If I'm not mistaking, the "new old style map" now contains an extra black pixel, compared to the "old old style maps". It's on the maps of sailors, next to the orange pixel.
For map making this is not a big issue, just one pixel more to edit.
But, since this pixel is indistinguishable from boats and locations, this might result in confusion when navigating or pinpointing locations / boats.

I assume that was sarcasm?SekoETC wrote:Why the **** were people complaining so bad when ALL you needed to do was copy the image, paste it to Microsoft Paint, resize to 25%, flood fill the edges with white and copy-paste to existing file, making sure that the background is not set to opague. As simple as that.
