hey i was just thinking why not make a toggle section where we can turn off the signs.

and maybe cause its using a google maps format anyone who takes pictures can drop them in to the map and just use the little street view guy to view them.

just a thought... and does the map get refreshed each month or no?
 
Map refreshes every day or two. I think Jangles has it running on a scheduled task in the early morning around 3 or 4 AM.
 
ahh i see it has refreshed now.... how about the sign post toggle idea?
 
Good idea. I'll see if I can do it. Those signs are a pain and it would be nice to just hit a button and turn them off.

I've got it running daily at 12pm.

Thanks!
 
yah had a few players saying that the map would crash because of all of the notes... to bad we cant make a code like : putting *MAP* at the top of the sign would show up in google with out that then it will not... this would let us still put up many signs but only have the important ones go up.. also help with locations like: meet at bob's hill but if bob had way to many signs around there there is no way to find the sign called bob's hill... something to think about it.
 
Ya actually thats a better idea. instead of hidding the sign, hide all signs by default and only allow the ones you choose.

I've been working on something else the past few days and JUST got it (semi) working. http://server.minecraftaddicts.com/dynamic-map/
It's not loading all the tiles for me but I think that's just because the map render is in progress. There's no way to check the progress. Hopefully that fixes itself =\. Anyway, it tracks players location every 2 seconds. HOT.

There's also an option to create signs exactly how you described it lofp, but better, you can warp to the signs in game. I'm not sure if I'll use that yet.
 
i see what you have done. its easyer to see where people are without haveing to teleport... however the rendering of the map seems slow or alot of unredered stuff... then again i moved from one area to another to see how far someone went and the chunk updateing i understand however could we put a static image behind it for reference when things arent being rendered?
 
awesome. i had saw this last night. i have noticed an increase in render speed on the map without the signs on as well. awesome job jangles this makes things much easyer.
