Ever wanted an Offline world scale map that is permanent?

 

This mod offers that, it is fully client side - works a MP/SP VS install of at least version 1.16+.

These Release-Candidate versions for V.S. 1.16, while functional have uncorrected BUGS...  (there are also very likely data compatibility issues, and/or upgrade problems - with old map data; meaning you will want to BACKUP or delete the 'old' map data FIRST! Its Strongly recommended to delete the old map data when testing with V0.1.7. (There is a special tool planned to be released later - to process / correct / update chunk shard data, and other things...)

Gui Control panel default key: SHIFT + M

Version History ("0.1.8-PRE0"):

  • Fixed issues with Block-Entities for blocks that don't need / have a Designator target...(happens with modded servers often?)
  • Internal tweaks, changes galore - perhaps improving speed & memory use

(Note: I've got the version numbers wrong - will fix next version...🤪)

Spoiler!

Old Version History (0.1.7/.8):

  • POI datafile is correctly truncated on write/creation (no more corrupt POI binary files)
  • Trader names are similar to nametag
  • Non-Seasonal type Color option correct (Thanks to VGD!)

This current version IN-DEVELOPMENT has some known defects, limitations, incomplete features and has lots of bugs!

Don't install unless you like making crash reports.

The C# code is mostly my own work - with VeryGoodDog making significant patches and changes. The dynamic HTML map is fully VeryGoodDog's work, address bugs to appropriate party... (and Drakker, too)

Known Issues:

  • GUI is glitchy
  • Note taker is buggy
  • GUI panel has most controls (but not everything is configurable, yet)
  • Scrolling in HTML map is W.I.P.
  • Rock ratio not shown on map Legend yet...
  • There is a memory leak(?) when running Automap for VERY long times [like +8 hours]
  • Autostart, doesn't (still!).

Working Features:

  • Map shard metadata reload (height, weather conditions, rock-map)
  • PNG file storage with metadata
  • Giant PNG map exports [SNAPSHOTS]  Many image tools don't handle giant size PNG
  • Static offline HTML map, with Dynamic rendering from metadata JSON
  • fixed TRANSLOCATOR & Merchant tracking
  • Point of Interest tracking, and other things too...

Also having an issue where it doesnt seem to actually run. Load into a world and select run and I just get the chat log saying it's been told to stop. Opening a new world and not hittin run doesnt seem to work either. Super excited to see this working though.

When selecting the run command all it shows in chat is commanded to stop. Any ideas

Hello! I absolutely love this mod! I have found a bit of a problem with the newest 1.16 addition - if I press autorun, it won't be clicked the next time I join the server.

Absolutely lovely, I no longer have to search for chalk. Lovely
