The Map is the primary method of navigating the Empyrion: Galactic Survival universe. There are currently two map views: the playfield map and the sector map.

Playfield Map[ | ]

Overview[ | ]

The playfield map display consists of a 3D view and a list of available markers.

Markers[ | ]

Map markers allow you to bookmark points of interest on a playfield. When set as visible on the HUD, markers can be seen from anywhere on the playfield. Markers can be either a normal marker (white marker) or as a waypoint (a more pronounced yellow marker).

Markers can be shared to either your faction or to all players as a public marker.

The list has two tabs, PV for your private markers and PU for public markers. Private markers appear as white . Public markers appear green if shared with your faction and as purple if shared with the public (all players on the server). Any marker set as a waypoint will appear as yellow . You may share up to 5 markers at a time, after which a 1 min delay prevents you from sharing another.

PV (Private Markers)[ | ]

SM: Center the selected marker on the map view.
ED: Edit the selected marker.
RM: Permanently remove the selected marker.
SC: Create a copy of the marker on the public marker list, visible to all players.
SF: Create a copy of the marker on your faction's marker list, visible to all players in your faction.

PU (Public markers)[ | ]

SM: Center the selected marker on the map view.
ED: Edit the selected marker.
RM: Permanently remove the selected marker.
SC: Copy the selected marker onto your private marker list. This will allow you to customise the waypoint to suit your needs.
SF: Copy the selected marker onto your faction's marker list, visible to all players in your faction.

Creating a marker[ | ]

To add a map marker, simply right-click on a point on the playfield view. A dialog box will appear allowing you to customise the marker.
