Dynmap Marker Requests

From UltraVanilla

This page should be used to request new markers to be added to Dynmap.

Guidance

Dynmap markers generally fall into three categories:

  • Town icons
  • POIs
  • Shops

Town Icons

Town icons use the largest type of icon and are usually custom icons, often based on the town's banner. The town's banner or custom icon should be sent to Reno so a dynmap-friendly and consistent version of it can be created.

Example of how to fill out the table below to request a new town icon:

Town/Area Marker Type Marker Name Coordinates Icon Type Icon Name Notes
Exampleville Town Icon Exampleville -1000, 1000 Custom N/A Town banner sent to Beeper for discussion.

Custom town icons mostly look like this and are usually added to be used on the wiki too:

POIs

POIs (Points of Interest) are sub-icons within towns or other locations that are only visible when zoomed in and are on their own layer on the map which can be enabled or disabled by the user. POIs use one of the default icons, not custom icons (unless a new default icon is requested).

IMPORTANT: note that POIs may have duplicated names (for example "town hall") so it is important to specify the town/area name in the marker label unless it has a very unique name.

Example of how to fill out the table below to request a new POI icon:

Town/Area Marker Type Marker Name Coordinates Icon Type Icon Name Notes
Exampleville POI Exampleville Town Hall -1044, 987 Default Temple N/A

Shops

Shop icons, like POIs, are only visible from a certain zoom level and are on their own layer. However, they all use the "basket" icon (unless closed or inactive, in which case they may be changed to "redbasket").

Example of how to fill out the table below to request a new shop icon:

Australis Shop District Shop BARGAIN MOOSE 99999, 999999 Default Basket N/A

Below is a list of default icons built in to the Dynmap plugin:

New Default icons

New default icons can be requested to be added in the table below. However, you must believe that the icon must have wide use across the server (for example beach, arena, statue which were added in addition to the built in icons).

Example of a request for a new default icon:

Town/Area Marker Type Marker Name Coordinates Icon Type Icon Name Notes
Exampleville POI Exampleville Wombat Daycare -994, 1002 New Default Request Wombat Requested new icon: [1]
