What is it
A large area build composed of 225 pictwlkh.rwx
15 x 15 matrix creating a map of the world Awteen. located
@ Awteen 2100n 2100e
Created
The first Awteen map I made was I
think in Nov 2001 It was a smaller version of
the one today 36 pictwlkh.rwx 6x6 matrix. I didn't build it
from scratch I got the Bmp
from the News groups. Andras
Sarkozy made these every 3
months.
Purpose
Help find builds with the use of
marker flags and a Xelagot
bot called Mapper. Aide in
looking for open ground for building projects.
How to use the map
Easy. All around the perimeter are
colored flags and what the colors represent. Red
flags are must see, white are Individual builds blue are Awteen etc.
Find the flags that interest
you and click on them. They're all teleport enabled. The flags,
while only displaying a small fraction of the constructs categorize
builds for easy exploration. Flags
marking builds are constantly being added on request
Also this is the best feature a Xelagot bot
( Made by Alex Grigny de Castro )called Mapper is always there to help
locate your position on the map relative to the
world. All you have to do is whisper "give location" and Mapper
will reply with your world
coords What can be easier. [Mapper]: Ptolemy, the world location
on the map is at 195.2n
968.4e 0.0a 26.0. I prefer to whisper so as not to interfere with
other explores. You can ask out loud if you want.
How was it all made
It all starts with the Remote
Administrative prop of Awteen by the Xelagot bot. Originally the
bot took four days now its around eight since the recent increase
in the size of the world. This is
the reason when you see my +/- dates for the maps. The
Dump is acquired starting at GZ moving North to South in a
West direction then when it
reaches 3000w it starts again at 3000e moving West to GZ So a build
may be scanned on 23 May at 0
n 300w but a build at 0n 1800e will be scanned 29 May
Next after acquiring the Propdump I
use Mapviewer ( Created by Andras Sarkozy ) to create
the Map in a bmp format. This utility creates a colored image of
either Objects, Builders or
Dates of builds. It also generates for each, an Object and Citizens
list if selected. Few people
know, I also with the use of this utility can find builds for them.
In less than 10 minutes All your
lost stuff can be found again. Note I only look for personal
builds not other peoples. Andras
helped me allot in the setting up
the software giving me pointers and the original color files to get
started. Thanks again Dude.
Step three putting the map online.
Each image is restricted to a small file size so to keep the
resolution up the Awteen.bmp is sliced up into a 225 pictwlkh.rwx
15 x 15 matrix. There was
a number of reasons I picked this amount and the size of the
pic not the least was Mr.
Building Inspector. Originally there was a ton of flags everywhere for
grid points. Later with the
Bot I removed 70% which helped in the lag department.
With the Xelagot bot a major hurdle
was removed for exploration. Now you can stand anywhere and ask
Mapper were you are and immediately get a response. The Bots been on
24/7 and will remain on, since I acquired the Script that makes it all
happen from Alex Grigny de Castro. I was amazed at the quick
reply from Alex when I emailed him for help. Next day service lol.
Thank you Alex the map
project wouldn't be half as good with out your help.
