FEI Dynamic Map
« Topic Start: June 12, 2012, 01:33:22 PM »
Why do the Dynamic Map overlays for Realms, Weather Areas and Diplomacy not work on FEI, but do on every other island?

There is an error in the geometry data for the FEI. It's a Known Issue, but it's probably not going to be fixed immediately. Sorry :-\

Oh. Is that also the reason why the map for Arcaea on the Realm and Regions page doesn't appear, but it does for the other FEI realms?

Do you know where the error is? All we need to do is find the faulty region and re-draw its borders.

I do not, but Velax's other post suggests it's one of the ones in Arcaea.

We may be able to figure it out by looking at the error report from the mapping framework.

My personal guesses would be Hupar, or one of the regions surrounding it, or up on the coast.

How would one go about finding this error?

Do the duchy maps of Arcaea work? If you can find out which duchy map doesn't work, that would narrow it down.

...duchy maps? Where are they found? If they're in the "Govern the duchies" page, then they don't work.

Hrm... I will have to go lookiing for them. Maybe they didn't make it live? Anyway, just vie the region pages for each region in your realm. Note in which ones the region outline does not appear.

Checked every individual region in Arcaea. The maps all work.

Not just the map background appears, but the region outline overlay appears on all of them?

Then I guess we wait to see if Tom has any other ideas. :(

BTW - duchy maps: go to your character status screen. In the part where it describes your allegiance (You are a knight of X in the duchy of Y...), the duchy name is a link. Click it to go to the duchy status page. It is like the Realm and Region page, but only shows the duchy. It also shows a map of the duchy.
