Greetings fellow Wurmians,

 

Why a separate map for Cats Eyes Highways?

Since mid year of 2017, the Wurmians of Indy have been asking us, "How about adding the new Cats Eyes Highways to the Albia Roads Map of Indy?".

 

After some careful thought and consideration, we concluded that it would "over clutter" the current map.

 

So after some experimenting, we determined the best way to show the Cats Eye Highways would on a map of its own.

 

To keep it simple, we removed Mission Markers, Guard Towers, Mail Boxes, Deed Markers, Tar Markers, Trader Markers and faded the current roads network down to 40% of normal, making it a back ground shadow.

 

Then we conducted driving surveys of all the CEH's (Cats Eye Highways) that were made know to us.

 

Similar to the Albia Roads Map, the privacy of Hermits and those who wish to have their villages remain anonymous is being protected.

 

This Map is a direct Descendant of The Albia Roads Map Indy which means.....  

.... IF we do not have room for something on The Albia Roads Map of Indy....

.... It will NOT appear on the CE Highway Map as we have no intentions of maintaining two map databases.

 

The convention for having your deed added to the Albia Cats Eyes Highways Map of Indy.

All Albia Maps are Opt-In.

 

Only a Mayor can make a request to have their Deed or Wagoneer put on an Albia map.

 

IF you put your deed on the Albia Roads Map of Indy AND, you have "Allow Routing" enabled,  space permitting, you will be added to the Cats Eyes Hwy map.

 

Even though a Mayor may have elected to "Allow Routing", IF their village is not on the Albia Roads Map of Indy, then they will Not be visible on the Cats Eye Highway Map.

 

So all those Mayors and Hermits out there who allowed a highway to pass through their village, but who wish to remain Private, your privacy has been respected, and we thank for you community mindedness in allowing a Cats Eye Highway pass through your deed.

These are also now a Pinned Topic in the Indy Forum.

 

 

Initial Release Issued at 2017-12-25 @ 06:00am GMT (UTC)

This is a New Map.  It will always be a work in progress as the worlds of Wurm are always changing, and we welcome input from the Indy Community.

 

Thus we release this, on the morning of Christmas Day 2017, The Albia Cats Eyes Highway Map of Indy, our Christmas present to the Wurmian community on Independence.

Just like the Albia Roads Map, we are hosting it on Google Drives, which lets you "zoom in" right there on line, as well as downloading it if you wish to use a picture viewer to enjoy it in Hi-Rez.

 

Colour Code Update:

The Colour Code for Cats Eyes Highways through Tunnels changed to a shade of Purple.

This has been done as there are cases now of CE Highways on the surface passing over CE Highways in tunnels directly below.

 

We ask for your patience as we add to and improve this new map and tweak it to make it better.

 

We hope this makes your travels and adventures safer and more enjoyable.

 

Best wishes!

Sweet, nice work :)

 

Thank you for your support Freddy.  When Cats Eyes were first introduced, we knew it would only be matter of time before the residents of Indy would want a Cat's Eye's map.  We are very happy to be able to make this contribution to the Wurmian community on Indy. (as well as actually contributing to the construction and expansion of the CE network ourselves).

 

Merry Christmas to you and your villagers.

 

Kindest regards!

To the Forum Moderators!      December 31st, 2018 @ 10:38 GMT

 

As this Albia Cats Eyes Highway Map of Indy is another user resource map, that will be updated regularly like the Albia Roads Map...

 

... Can we please ask for consideration in Pinning It to the top of this forum, like the Albia Roads Map, so users can find it easily.

 

Thank you for your time and trouble.

 

Respectfully submitted,

Update released on 2018-01-01  01:35 - GMT (January 1st, 2018)

 

Note:  Posting delay due to computer problems, and thus unable to post at time of release.

 

Our New Years Day (New Years Eve for us) present to all of our fellow Wurmian is the 1st update of the Albia Cats Eyes Highways Map of Indy.

 

This weeks updates:

 

Added:  Highway network on the Halcyon Peninsula - West of FM

 

Added:  Highway network on the west side of Stoney Lake.

 

Linked:  Kinoss Bay North East (West Coast Hwy) network with the FM network.

 

To view or download the Latest Version of the Albia Cats Eyes Highway Map of Indy please go to the first post of this topic for the current link to this map.

 

We will be downloading the just released map dumps shortly and the information they contain on CE Hwys in areas we have not yet surveyed will be added with our next update.

 

So you can now use the CE Hwy network to find over 40 deeds on FM network alone, and enjoy "routed directions" from Kinoss Bay in the west all the way through to the east end of Crystal Lake.

 

Happy New Year to all our fellow wurmians, with special thanks to Alterbridge, Czolg and Maiya for their contributions to this weeks update.

 

Kindest regards!

Thank you for the nice map of where this addition is Maiya.  As it is a "new" road as well as a CE Hwy, we will endeavour to get a survey team over there to do a tile count survey to get it properly positioned on both Roads and CE Hwy's maps.

 

Cheers!

Update released on 2018-01-07  17:45 - GMT (January 7th, 2018)


This weeks updates:

 

Added: The south west coast CE Hwy network (our thanks to Dev's CE Hwy dump map).

 

Added: The south east steppe CE Hwy network (our thanks to the Dev's CE Hwy dump map).

 

Added: CE Hwy in the Ultimarus area, branching off of Freedom Hwy to the NE
       (our thanks to the Dev's CE Hwy dump map).

 

Linked: FM Highway network to the Halcyon Peninsula network - just NW of FM.

 

Linked: The Lake Tortuga network to the ever expanding FM highway network (via the Garfius Bridge

on the West side of the Inner Sea).

 

NEW: New Symbol for the Wagoneers.

 

Added: Placed on the map symbols for three Wagoneers at:
     Freedom Market - central Indy (32x,37y)
     Elm Street - west side of the Inner Sea (18x, 37y)
     Wolpteringer Ranch - west side of the Inner Sea (20x, 33y)

 

Note: We are aware of a 4th wagoneer, but as that deed has not requested to be placed on the main Indy

Roads map, per our privacy protection policy, we have Not added that Wagoneer to the CE Hwy's map.

 

Removed: Tar Pit symbols

We did this to help further reduce clutter on this map and to make the public wagoneer's symbols stand out

better for folks looking to find a nearby public wagoneer for their shipping needs.

 

To view or download the Latest Version of the Albia Cats Eyes Highway Map of Indy please go to the 1st post of this topic for the current link to this map.

 

So you can now use the CE Hwy network to find over 40 deeds on FM network alone, and enjoy "routed

directions" from Kinoss Bay in the west all the way through to the east end of Crystal Lake.

 

Special thanks to Freddykruger and Maiya for their contributions to this weeks update.

(Hughmongus takes Maiya's glasses, cleans them and returns)

 

Seriously, that is very good idea.  We discussed and have acted upon it.  Expect to see something a little more visible in this week end's update.

On the south coast, around (and partially through) Mount Elysian has been cat's eyed up. Only found it the other day by accident, and I think it's a work in progress.
