Sawine added a Live map that shows where players are, and a world map that updates =).

Taking a while to load, I'm leaving my computer on overnight to let it load, hopefully.

Its not your computer loading, its the map being generated.

Do we have to travel to the areas to make them show up on the map?

I think if we will have to go and place or destroy one block around the map to make it appear. It detect blocks action. If it would have been installed when we created the world if would have worked fine, but now i think were gonna have to fix it manually...

One block around the map?

Care to explain =P

One block in each of the dark sections.

I think to make the black area update on the map we will have to go to these areas and place or destroy a block to make the map update. Place a block of dirt and break it, or break one and replace it. The map seems to update that way.

would magic carpet work

if so we could fly around a lot of the map to make it show up

my whole screen is black and its quite irritating ive let it sit for an hour and nothing any explanation?

sawine i suggest we do a mass edit to try to get this live map working. my suggestion is to do a large edit of bedrock, as it is under the entire map, and then undo the change. this would let large sections of the map update. i want to try this but won't without your permission.
