Glimmer Forest Expansion Map - Interactive

[ShibuyaCloth]

I did myself a pleasure and did build a new interactive map of the Glimmer Forest and surounding: The Glimmer Forest Expansion Map (https://www.portailsmm.com/cs/GlimmerForestMap.html)

This is in complement to the expansion Nugget (https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?77377)!

Note:
+ So far tested in all major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari, Edge), on both Windows and iOS platform (feedback from Android versions welcome, tested on Moto Z).
+ This is based on HTML 5 & Javascript, so you must enable scripting in order to make it work.
+ Happy to get feedback if there are problems or some improvements are needed.
+ The bigger the screen the better the immersion is, the map is huge!

Looking at this beautiful made map..(except for missing Thomas :D .. hihi..) ... i just wish they could make the design better, background wise, and..maybe also connect the "under the sea" part better with the forrest... :)

[ShibuyaCloth]

Added a few graphical enhancements!

Oh I love this! It?s beautiful ✨🌈💫🍬

[Em_storm]

This is wonderful! Beautiful job.

This is brilliant, however, is it supposed to only show about half the forest? I can see everything to the left, so cannot see the Forgotton Roost, Then I can see the edging of where the game begins because trees are in their various normal colours. All the way down to the new purple tree, Tree of the Wilds. Sorry I thought I ought to check I’m on iPhone 6S.

On my iPad I have to scroll down to the sea and then swipe it across to see the rest of the forest. Try that, maybe?

There is a scroll bar on the bottom of the map, I will make it more visible in the next version. Currently it is nearly blended in the viewport frame.

[ShibuyaCloth]

I have updated the map to show the new forest growth to the East. Also fixed a few bugs.

[ShibuyaCloth]

Update with the new plots done.

[danzplace]

Thanks! Time allowing with other things, I think my focus will be trade tickets.

I had to revert back to the PNG image, which is massive because the mobile browsers do not support advanced web standards. So loading is slower.

I also just finished coding the mobile view, so some parts are smaller to improve real estate usage.

Love the Tome of Knowledge page! You're incredibly talented and I appreciate all you do for us! ;)

Agree! Shibuya?s map and tome of knowledge page are awesome! Great work!

[sipland]

I wouldn’t have the first clue how to do something like this! So exceptional that you put the time into making this for us all! Thanks so much :)

[Lavenderdale]

amazing and works perfectly. (Android version 8.0.0)

Gosh that is just wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with us :)

Me needer. I just wanted to learn how to build a JS App in HTML 5. So need to start somewhere :)

Would there be a way for players to check off the tiles they already have so they can have visualization of their own maps and what expansions are available to them currently?

Working on a plot selection function. If you want a replication of the expansion function of the game, ... let me think.

[ShibuyaCloth]

Update:
+ Plot selection possible
+ Save/Load plot selection - If you want to reproduce your realm and find if back next time you visit
+ Some GUI improvements
+ Possibility to show possible expansions based on current selected plots
+ Added plot conditions (what other plot is needed to open a specific plot)
+ Color differentiation between expansion (orange) & explorer (red) permit plots

Planned:
+ Save current map setup and auto load at each visit (requires more cookies)
+ Legal blabla - using Storm 8 resources...
+ Cookies Policy - using cookies :rolleyes:
+ Expansion needs info box
+ Other cool stuff you want...

[ShibuyaCloth]

Update:
+ Legal & Privacy pages
+ Cookies Policy
+ Expansion Info box
+ Save the current map setting (in a cookie), load it next time you visit the page.


Note: as it becomes a more advanced web app, I cannot test it properly off-line. So you you hit a problem (read bug) please report it here or through PM. I'll fix it for next release.

[ShibuyaCloth]

Update:
+ Brand new forest map with all new expansions
+ Adjusted the selection zones to better fit plots
+ Reduce map download size by 80%

Notes:
Removed the mountains from original game background

[GameAddicted007]

Dear ShibuyaCloth, thank you so much! It makes life much easier!

[ShibuyaCloth]

Update:
+ Add the hidden forest arc plots
+ Minor layout corrections

[Melany77]

Shibuya you're da bomb! This game is so much better thanks to you.

Thank you so much for all you do. Even with all of our wonderful forum contributors, without you and SW, I would be in a constant state of confusion. Many thanks to each of you!

This is incredible!! Thank you!

The map is updated to the latest stand!

Thank you Shibuya, I use the map all the time. It's fantastic!

[Lyzau]

Shibuya when I mouse over the Marshland Expansions, the tooltip text that appears says "Enchanted Lanterns", but this should be "Glowing Compass". The icon is correct though, so it's obvious that Compasses are needed, but I thought I'd mention it.

Thanks for spotting. Fixed!

[robotparade]

Wow, you obviously put lots of work into that. It looks great! Thank you very much!

[ShibuyaCloth]

The Audra Island has been added to the interactive map. Some plot information & graphics are missing.

[Melany77]

Appreciate your hard work SC!

[ShibuyaCloth]

The Island of Audra has been updated with all the missing graphics. additional expansions on the main land also.

[LemracCafe]

Wish I'd known about this map when I had an issue with 1 square of a plot. Would've been so much easier to explain where the prob was. Thanks ShibuyaCloth, I consult it regularly now. Great job!!!!:mad:
