map making
a new skill/craft

Is it possible to make a new craft of cartography, making a map of the whole world as you explore?
Perhaps get exp for exploring as you go. One thing could be to be able to add features to your map such as resources or tribe locations.
This would eliminate the need to alt tab out to look at a large map.
Could work up to making the map by cutting trees -> short logs-> shave log-> make paper

If this is too complex, maybe just add a big map? And then make it so we can mark said map?

You could also add making ink to use on map. Not sure what would make ink, maybe berries?

I think this is a great idea. Its often hard to keep track of what tribes are where without taking screen shots and keeping track that way...

So I fully agree, some kind of map system or skill would be heavily required in this game.

99% of new players I interact with have no idea how the zones stack on top of each other or next to each other so its hard for them to get a grasp of what direction they should go, so forcing them to alt tab repeatedly to look at the xsyon map is really counter productive and not very user friendly.

This has been on my list of desired features for a long time. It's a planned feature, just one of many and not enough time!
