Gotta love your style, willbonney

Thanks for the hard work you put into writing these guides, they are very helpful to the newcomers.

Will's guide will make even more sense if you have this map at your side while reading it.

Hehe, that map was taken down, or not working, for like a week. Glad to see it's back up, is a very usefull tool.

I think what would be a good idea, is to wipe this map clean, in terms of terrain.
keep the grid, but then turn it into a usable map, with Points of interest, and also Junk piles etc

a lot of work that...was actually going to work on a "political" map of sorts for live, that people can submit modifications based on their "claims." Will look good when I"m done, but am hoping that cartography gets added to game, then it won't matter.

If the skills list on the Wikki is anything to go by, then it should be added in the future.
And some other interesting skills to which look really really good.
If they get added ill be mighty happy Gimme Boat crafting

Great map, not sure who come up with it, but best I have seen in almost a year. A working map with political influence, points of interest, trade routes, trading posts, and eventually mines, farms, towns... the list is endless, would be a great addition, after launch.

Not criticizing your navigation skills Will, but wouldn't the person running from the bear have gotten home faster if he simply run NE?

This will be useful up until release when the coordinates are removed from the UI. Unless he's decided not to do that but that would surprise me.
