Worldmap.xml?

Is there an editor or any automated mechanism to apply this file?

I searched for "Worldmap" in the forums, but didn't see any mention of such.

Thanks

We use an editor called "Tiled", if that is what you were looking for.

The worldmap basically works by taking a screenshot of the map and then stitching the images together to display them on the worldmap file.

The Tiled editor is for making the individual map files, called TMX files, not xml.files. The worldmap.xml file is constructed by the game code itself, based on s template xml file, as Scott describes.

So there isn't something that can read WorldMap.xml to build a map with? (Outside the game?)

I can't wait to retire so I can write something like that up... :)

Well, what you can do is, copying all files in mnt/storage/andors-trail/worldmap from your phne to your PC. Open the .html files and you can see your AT worldmap!

Ha! Didn't even have to copy the files to my pc! :)

ETA: But that map seems to be outdated. I'm exploring "burntwood" (or whatever it is...the new mine...) and it's not on the map?

Charwood is the name of the new mine added in V7.

Yes that might be because your device ran out of RAM. If that happens, it doesn't render the picture of the map you're in. You would need to reload your savegame and make your way again through this area. :(


Maybe you could add some code to the HtML file, so it renders all the pictures in your worldmap which you got in your worldmap folder?
