Talk:Travel map

Alright, I think I have made all the change you recommended Absolon. Think I should go ahead and start adding links via imagemap?
Also, is there a way/place I could upload the .ppt that I created the map in? In case I disappear someone else could have it to work with.

Go ahead with the imagemap if you think it's ready. If you need an imagemap creator, I use this one for my spell trees: http://imagemap-generator.dariodomi.de/. As for uploading a .ppt... Not on the wiki, no. You could dropbox it, but that would still require you to keep the file in your dropbox. Once it's in image format like this, it's not too hard to just add a box or two as needed, and a map like this isn't going to change very frequently anyway, so I wouldn't worry about it. Thanks for the good page idea btw.--ABSOLON (talk) 00:06, 11 April 2015 (CDT)

I uploaded my final version, unless a HUGE glaring error rears its head. Does it sometimes take awhile for the file to update? Even with the old versions deleted the new version isn't showing on this page to me as of right now. Working on the imagemap intermittently as I get time, that's a lot of rectangles.
Is there some html I can add to make sure it stays a manageable size based on the browser size? When I do the image map tag it displays full size, which is pretty big. This is my current format. Also Thanks for the link to imagemap generator, helped a lot. SEGGERING (talk) 11:48, 11 April 2015 (CDT)

Re: updates - It's instant. You probably just need to manually refresh the page to update your cache.

Re: image size - Use this format:

<imagemap>
Image:TravelMap.png|frameless|upright=5
rect 14 13 101 38 [[RanikMap47|City of Muspar'i]]
</imagemap>

Adjust the upright value to suit your needs, but 5 should be about right.--ABSOLON (talk) 13:49, 11 April 2015 (CDT)

I just noticed 1 thing that you might want to tweak. On the Aesry box, you just have the single box. But, how that island works is the docks are at Lezeni’s Cove (map98) and then you climb all those darn stairs which gives you the travel delay (also map98) and then the city of Aesry Surlaenis'a would be at the end (map99). But, it's all 1 big island and like Ratha, is spread out over multiple maps, so it might not be worth the hassle to change that. Nice job! --Kythryn 14:04, 11 April 2015 (CDT)
