Latest release (for Vintage Story 1.22.2, potentially outdated):
simplemap_1.1.4.zip 1-click install
Craftable maps that offer an in-game way to mark locations without using the World Map GUI. These maps work the same as treasure maps or the map to the Resonance Archives do when the World Map is disabled: right-clicking will show a message telling you how far you are from the map's location. The location for your map is wherever it was crafted, and there is some randomness added depending on what materials you used. Better materials result in more accurate maps. An ink-and-quill and parchment yield the most accurate maps (and you get to reuse the ink-and-quill,) while cruder ingredients like charcoal and linen are still good enough for marking general locations, your base for instance. You can give your maps custom names, rename them, and even duplicate them!
---Recipes---
The materials you use to craft your map with determine how accurate it is. The drawing utensil can be an ink-and-quill, or it can be any material you can use to draw cave art (charcoal, chalk, etc.) The drawing medium can be parchment or linen. There are four distinct combinations, and their accuracies are as follows:
ink-and-quill + parchment:
accurate within 5 blocks
ink-and-quill + linen:
accurate within 20 blocks
[cave art] (e.g. charcoal) + parchment
accurate within 80 blocks
[cave art] (e.g. charcoal) + linen
accurate within 100 blocks

Added recipes for renaming and duplicating maps Added extra handbook sections that explain the mod's mechanics Fixed a bug where the naming dialogue would pop up when opening the handbook while the player's inventory was open Fixed a crash related to a client-server desync that can occur when loading the game with items already in the crafting grid | |||||||

Could we rename maps by combining an existing map + drawing utensil? I made mine before realizing I could rename it and thought that would be neat
Good idea, added :)
would you be able to post a picture of what the map actually looks like? I would love to see what it looks like before actually downloading the mod
The map doesn't really look like anything, it just brings up a chat message. I added a video, hopefully that makes things clearer. Thanks!
I am 100% going to try this, but can you post example maps of different materials?
I added some more info on how it works. The writing utensil can be an ink-and-quill, or any material that lets you draw cave art. The writing medium can be parchment or linen.
This is exactly what i needed in a map mod. Could not be more simplistic, and feels like it should already exist in the game. What more could i ask for
