Advertisement for SotAMap aimed at Governors

Governors;

If you haven't done so yet, I urge you to go to www.sotamap.com, claim your town map, and take the (tedious) time to set up your town therein. It will be available in-game for your residents and potential residents, and allow you to do things like this:



My whole town in its current configuration, showing which lots are occupied and which aren't. It makes managing things much nicer... And it's available In-Game so anyone wandering in your town can see at a glance what's up.

I spent 10 hours on Sunday laying this out in SotAMap... It's tedious, but I'm very glad I did it. I had the game open in one window, and SotAMap in another, so I could see exactly where I was in game on the map, and adjust the position of things on the map to match reality.

One word of warning... The only way I know of to reload the Map Data is to Log Out and Back In... So, every so often, after you make some adjustments, you have to log, and log back, and see if your adjustments were correct. @DarkStarr, @Chris... Might there exist, or might it be possible to create a command to load SotAMap data on the fly? Something like /mapdata?

 

It is tedious for Governors to use. However, it is an incredible tool and one of the most valuable community created resources available.

I urge everyone (not just Governors) to support it directly by making a donation or becoming a Patron. https://www.sotamap.com/donate.php

 

Use Sota Navigator Located in the SOTA Map web site and use F5 to refresh.

Works like a charm. Used it for all 3 towns. As well you can add Vendors, points of interest who the owner of the lot is and more.

See my work here
Snug Harbor, Journeys End and Red Hook (The Underground)
and don't forget you can use sota map to connect to your town/guild website and SotA Wiki as well.

@Jakub White did a GREAT job on this and hopefully we will see him back soon with updates for all the new stuff.

D'oH! I didn't know that existed.

Would still be good to have a command in-game to refresh the data.

 

I signed up and created my town map as soon as the price came down... which was quite a while ago.

 

Does this imply that he is currently inactive on acting on payments sent for new maps? Just want clarity on services offered.

 

I can't comment on that. My comment was just in reference that I had not seen nor talked to @Jakub White in a while. That is all.

Our observations match on this. Since you have a more active synchronicity with the day to day, just thought you may have had news on his whereabouts.

 

I would love to do this but I have not been able to reach Jakub in now 3 months so not sure how to address the problem. Great Job though I know how much time the program takes.

 

I made a donation to access my town map on July 27, 2017 and have not received access as of Aug 2. No replies to my email or forum direct message.

 

@MrChadwyck I did the same thing the month before no idea what is going on but can't do anything with my towns on sotamap.

 

I paid my fee 3 day ago hoping to be able to edit my POT map before I introduce it to the world. Sounds like That is not going to happen.
