    To make navigation a little easier for new players, it'd be nice to have an interactive map like some other servers do. For example: https://map.wynncraft.com/

    Anything you can track on your navigator would be visible as a marker (the stationary items on the map). Yourself and teammates would appear for you, as well.

    Looks really cool, but wouldn't it be very hard to make? If not please add it :stuck_out_tongue:

    I doubt it, @DeZilla made a pretty similar one.

    Yeah that'd be really cool, and shouldn't be that hard to make.

    This is a plugin called DynMap, just ask the higher ups to install it and let it render the entire map. Though it might take a while to render since WW's map is like 12k by 12k I think?

    I was thinking of dynmap too, but that shows players. (It can probably be turned off)

    Yeah, it can. It's somewhere in the configuration but I haven't used DynMap in a while so I can't remember; I do know for a fact that you can turn players off though

    Actually no. That's the Dynmap. It's a public plugin. You can find it here.

    I think this is a good idea. The only issue I could potentially see is that the dynmap is rather resource-intensive, primarily because it updates in real time so it might lag Wild West a bit. Idk if it's configurable to update slower so it's less laggy. Either way I would support implementing this for a few days at least. If it's too laggy remove it. If not, keep it.

    Also support this. I've played on multiple servers that turn it off. As you can see by SoCool21's example Wynncraft did this as well.

    How would this show up? It would be cool as an actual in game map. I don't think thats exactly possible though :V

    This seems interesting but why should we add it? It seems to me as if it won't be useful.

    Wait you can go on the map without being online in a minecraft server and check where teammates and places are or you have to be in game and the map shows you this?

    I'm a little confused about this, like if you check k it in game or on another device

    Ok but in game, do you look in a map and it shows you this? Or do you have ever to go to a website and check it out?
