    Absolutely gorgeous. Probably the most functional and useful map of the realm to date.

    THIS is exactly the type of in-game map the Avatar needs to be able to consult. Hope the devs take notice.

    Edit: @DarkStarr can we haz in game? I can just imagine having a world map in my inventory and when I use it there is an animation of the avatar actually unrolling it and consulting it as long as it is open. And if it looked and behaved like this...that would be killer.

    This is really going to help new players and the geographically challenged. :D

    Perhaps a slightly different Icon for Pots versus PRT ( Player run towns where places allocated for anyone to place there house on ) and System Towns ( like Owls Head and Kings Port, etc... )

    Wow, that is really gorgeous. I like the iconography for all the physical features and the typeface. I think the lava could use a bit more punch to stand out, and I noticed there wasn't any depiction of snow, such as at Vertas Pass.

    BTW, for those interested in map making:

    Version 0.1.6 is now online . I changed my original post and added a spoiler there with the changelog . So if you want to track changes and keep up to date with news, simply add the topic to your watchlist .

    Recent changes :
    • Embed map - I'm providing a code which lets you put a map on your website
    • Share link - You can share map by auto generated link
    • Share custom marker - You can share custom marker also
    • Custom marker - Now you can put your own marker on the map
    • User registration - It works , but the lack of benefits for signing


    @Odyssey2001:
    I will see what can i do, but it's not a priority right now.

    @smack:
    I'm adding this to my wish list :)

    @DarkStarr , Think there's enough positive support behind this creation to warrant the devs implementing this in game?

    @Jakub White , Great job chief, you really knocked it out of the park...

    BMC is 100% behind this member, and if the devs consider the implementation of this map, the BMC will sponsor a link on it's website directly to Portalarium to help fund the endeavor.

    Jakub's map is a fantastic work but I see no real reason to implement it into SotA. It can run fine and evolve as a separat app.
    But if it should ever be implemented into SotA then please consider the pledge reward of the navigator tier to not devalue it.

    Novia Map Atlas
    A special item for Navigators that holds all of the minimaps in a single compendium without having to first collect them in game.

    Besides that I very much like the current ingame maps and see them fitting better as... well ingame maps. But that's just my opinion.

    @Duffrey Blake , Absolutely... Please allow me to revise my previous statement. Implementation without destabilization of the current pledge rewards. It is not the BMC's intention to devalue anyone's pledge... If implementation cannot be achieved without harming the value of player experience, then of course, abandon the idea.

    Thank you Jakub White for this interactive map. To help with spreading the word I added it to my front and new player guide pages on my site sotagamer.com.

    SotaMap.com - map updated to R23
