Shared World Map

Description
Shared World Map is a mod that allows players to share what they've explored on any world.

Features:
Share map data in real time as you explore.
Share previously explored sections of your map by selecting the desired region on your fullscreen map.
Share all map data currently revealed with the press of a button.
Request map data from other players on your world.

How to use:
Set some hotkeys in your controls menu and you're good to go.
To share only specific portions of your map, open the fullscreen map, set the first and second positions, then right click the selected area.
Live sharing will share your minimap data as you explore new/previous areas with new/brighter light levels.
Live share will not sync all existing map data, only newly explored data. So make sure to sync your data first with normal transfers to stay up to date with your friends.
Live share is experimental and should be disabled if you experience any issues.

Special thanks to the author of the Map Markers mod (Ved_s) for assisting me with drawing on the fullscreen map.

@Ashbandit potentially. i havent looked at how feasible it'd be. i'll look into it.

Not sure if this is been suggested already, but I'm sure it has. Any plan to turn this concept into an interactive item in game? I don't know the technical feasibility of it, but I think a cartography table would be a neat item. A player interacts with the table to upload or receive map data with other players in the game (or on their team). That way it'd feel more natural and could be a progression item (dropped by goblin or pirate invasion maybe?)

@Fridgeroni sounds like your auto share interval is set too short. also if you're on a slow connection it could cause lag
Jake  [author] 5 Apr @ 7:30pm 
@Jim the Gardener what is it spamming? also the average size of a map transfer for large worlds is around 30mb. so if you or someone else has a slow connection that could cause some lag

Causes server lag like fuckin crazy. Even with interval set to 30 mins, it spams CONSTANTLY.

This is so cheeks, it keeps sending a notification that data is sharing every like 30 seconds and causes a giant lagspike to everyone on the server.

When my friend tries to join my game it gets stuck at like 13/33% on loading map tiles, cant figure out why. FYI experimental is off
