Great job with the map and locations iof players/POI's etc...
If possible I'd like to suggest 2 upgrades... background area could be colored as per current alliance territories controlled or possible a background similar to the game terrain itself that mirrors the game ground.
Secondly, I'm not sure how you implement the update but if you could change it to once every 3-4 hours instead of once a day it would be a help. I'd like to see more up to date information instead of looking for a player on here and then finding out the guy has moved 50-60 units away from the last location.
Game terrain - no it's just tons of images(lakes,mountains etc) impossible to draw all of it. About alliance area now i tries to find out how it calculates.
Currently map updates every 10 minutes. If updates are stuck for hour, 5, 10 it's because i make changes in parser, don't panic.
Is it possible to see your source/script for reading out die map from the game? I would like to use it for the Worldchampionchip-World. Best regards GDR99 (W28)
