The Zone Map is a tool that can be used to calculate direction and distance between two different rooms. It is of primary use to Moon Mages, but has application for other systems that work over a distance like [[familiars]], gwething, the {{com|BEFRIEND}} verb, and viewing the physical scale of the world. See the [[Travel map]] for a not-to-scale overview of the major travel routes between locations.

|-

|}
===Shifting via Locate===
*This feat is limited to a distance of 1 zone.
*Distance is calculated between your location and that of your Locate target. Your moonbeam's location does not factor in at all.
*It requires a hard minimum of 100 {{skill|Lunar Magic}}, but does not improve with either mana or skill.
*Since the range is the same distance as Kyanite Gweth range, that is a common in-game method of determining if you can do the shift or not.
*Another in-game way of checking is by locating your target with a min-prep snap-cast. If you get full details, then you are able to [[Locate]]-shift to them.
====Shifting Oddities====
*Shortcut: Ilaya Taipa <---> Hibarnhvidar <---> Ain Ghazal
:*Both the dock in Ilaya Taipa and the dock in the Himineldar just east of Hibarnvidar are in the same zone as Ain Ghazal, allowing a locate shift of effectively 2 to 4 zones.
*Shortcut: Throne City <---> Riverhaven, Knife Clan
:*The dock just outside Throne City is in the same zone as Riverhaven making it possible to reach these two areas via a Locate shift without needing to use the turtle and running down to Langenfirth.
*Shortcut: Muspar'i <---> Hvaral, Fornsted, Therenborough, Rossman's Landing, El'Bains Stop, Marauders
:*The docks on the Muspar'i side are in the same zone as Hvaral and Fornsted making it possible to Locate shift to and from all the listed zones.
*Shortcut: Rakash Village <---> P5 Cleric Guild, Hag's Crag, Vela'tohr Wood
:*These two zones create a quick shortcut between P2 and P5 if you can find someone to [[Locate]]-shift to.
*Shortcut: Dirge <---> Throne City
:*Easy shifting access from Throne City proper to the Crossing area.
*Shortcut: Ratha <---> Mer'kresh, M'riss, Hara'jaal
:*The permanent Moongate in Phelim's Temple on Ratha takes you directly to Taisgath putting you within Locate shift range of the above islands. Handy way to avoid a long boat trip.
*Shortcut: Knife Clan <---> Gwenalion Fens
:*Easy shifting access between Langenfirth/Therenborough and the Crossing area.
:*An alternate option is to travel to the south side of the Riverhaven Ferry.
*Barrier: Road between Shard Ranger Guild and Gryphons
:*There is a 2 zone break along this road just before arriving in gryphons that makes it impossible to Locate shift across it.
:*This barrier is there even if you and your target are right at the breakpoint and can peer at eachother in the next room over.

*Moongating requires holding an amount of mana ('m') based on {{skill|Lunar Magic}} ('S') and the ''effective'' distance ('d') travelled.
:*It always requires at least 10 mana regardless of skill and distance.
:*Moongate caps at 80 mana effectively limiting the maximum range based on skill.
*Distance for these calculations is modified by an amount ('i') based on travel within, into or out of [[P4]].
:*i = 0 if both endpoints are on the mainland
:*i = 2 if both endpoints are on the islands
:*i = 6 if one endpoint is on the mainland and the other is on the islands.
*Mana:
:m = ceiling [ (100(d + i) + 1 - S) / 2 ], d >= 2
::*if m <= 10 then m = 10 (i.e. it always requires a minimum of 10 held mana regardless of skill.)
::*if m > 80 then you cannot gate that distance with the given skill.
*Skill:
:S = 100(d + i) + 1 - 2m, 10 <= m <= 80, d >= 2
*Distance:
:d = floor [ (S + 2m - 1) /100 ] - i, 10 <= m <= 80
*For values of d < 2, the required held mana and skill are around 10 and 100 respectively on the mainland. On the islands these values are slightly higher. Neither case follows the formula above completely.
*For those who don't wish to do the math, the table at the right lists common breakpoints.


See the [[Teleport]], [[Moongate]], [[Shift Moonbeam]], [[Contingency]], and [[Riftal Summons]] spells for the minimum mana costs required for specific distances.
===Shifting via Directions===
*Shifting by using GESTURE <direction/portal> can be done at any range.
*The distance is calculated between your location and your moonbeam's location.
*The distance is also modified by the same island factor that modifies Moongating.
*The formulae for mana, distance, skill are similar to those for Moongating, although at a much smaller magnitude.
:*These are not currently listed since the skill requirements are very low even for long distance and the Mirror Wraith spell will be replacing its function rendering this information will become moot. If someone wishes to use the [[Coordinate Chart]] data to reverse engineering the formulae for completeness' sake, feel free.

The Zone Map is a tool that can be used to calculate direction and distance between two different rooms. It is of primary use to Moon Mages, but has application for other systems that work over a distance like familiars, gwething, the BEFRIEND verb, and viewing the physical scale of the world. See the Travel map for a not-to-scale overview of the major travel routes between locations.

Basics

Basic Concepts

  • Each room in the game is designated as part of a "zone." These zones have been said to represent about 100 miles of distance.
  • This zone designation is what is used to calculate distance and direction between any two rooms in the game.
  • Everything on this page is based on player observation about how the system works. As such it is only an approximation, albeit a good one, of how distance and direction between two rooms is determined. Most of the information was gleaned from the Coordinate Chart program.
  • The zones were determined primarily by triangulation using two characters and the BEFRIEND list. Confirmation of distance in many cases was done by using Locate based shifts and Moon Gating.
Note: Ocean squares are not included in the above map since the normal methods of finding direction and distance do not work while on ships.

  • Primarily used by the BEFRIEND, treasure map, and severe weather systems.
  • Any zones in the same row or column as a given zone are said to be due north, east, south, or west of that zone.
  • Any zones not in the same row or column as a given zone are said to be either northwest, northeast, southwest, or southeast of that zone.

Distance

  • Distance between any two given zones is calculated by using the Pythagorean theorem.
  • Since the game deals in integers, the result is rounded down.
d = floor [ sqrt ( x ^ 2 + y ^ 2 ) ] , where x is the horizontal displacement and y is the vertical displacement between the zones.
  • For those who don't wish to do the math, the table on the right shows the distances in a visual format.

Specific Uses

Teleportation Spells

See the Teleport, Moongate, Shift Moonbeam, Contingency, and Riftal Summons spells for the minimum mana costs required for specific distances.

Astral Plane

  • Grazhir shards are marked on the Zone Map by dark backgrounds.
  • The name of each Grazhir shard is surrounded by parenthesis and is located directly after the area it is in for easy identification.

Familiars

  • The distance a familiar will be able to travel is based on both its type and the Warrior Mage's circle.
Circle Small Large Dark Fir
1 1 --- --- ---
10 1 1 --- ---
20 2? 2? 2 ---
50 3? 3? 3? 5
60 4? 4? 4? 5
75 5 5 5 5
90 6 6 6 6
105 7 7 7 7
120 8 8 8 8
135 9 9 9 9
150 10 10 10 10

Note: The numbers pre-75 for non-fir familiars need to be verified and are missing a few circles where they step up.
