Is there any way we can view current maps of other continents, rather like how we used to be able to view the political map?

I'm dying to know what Beluaterra and EC look like.

you can always access the political map through wooing links/island news/your island of choice/ scroll down to current political map link.

also, you can change the world number in this link1-8 but a couple won't have show up, the old war islands

Basically, you want to be able to view dynamic maps for other islands?

Sure, no reason not to allow it, I just don't know a good place to put the links.

Zakilevo

Can you put it under maps on the wiki?

or In Game is fine too I think, under statistics maybe?

Revan

Just out of interest, those new dynamic maps we got recently. Do they actually work for everybody? All I can make them do is show up region names :-\

I've always enjoyed keeping up with the other continents via the political map. If it helps:

1=East Island
2=Atamara
4=Beluaterra
6=Colonies
7=Far East
8=Dwilight

They work fine for me, and have been for a while....
After all it's a roleplaying game.

For me (using chrome) the box "flags" have no effect - in any continent I play. The other boxes work fine.

Revan

The only box that works for me is region names. I am an Opera user though. I suspect that has a lot to do with it >.<

Shouldn't. As long as your browser is not IE or some < 1% market share exotic, things should work.

... works just fine in ie9 64bit, not that i use that browser much (aside from the flag one... though the region name tick seems a bit redundant...)

In Firefox, I can't toggle flags either. Realm yes, however, region name as well I think. Not the most interesting layer, however (flags).

Yeah, I do think one of the recent updates broke the flags layer. Not that it's really important, the realms layer is probably going to replace it long-term anyways.

Oh please god no. The flags layer is so much nicer.
