The map seems to work pretty well! I have a few questions related to the map presentation:

Is there a way to set map dimensions? Not the image itself (which is easy of course) but the size of the map area in the panel. The default seems to be approx. 200x200 which is too large an area for me.

In addition, how to disable the default border around the map image?

Finally, any chance to customize the 'you are here' pointer image run time? The pointer image seems to use IcoItem.gif but if I could specify the pointer image run time it would be so much better.

Thanks,

Hi there,
the map dimensions and general appearence depend mainly on this Java source of:

Ctrl.java
ViewMap.java (IFRAME content)

The "your posiition" icon can be currently changed depending from the player's skin - it is the skin's "generic ITEM" icon. So if you change the skin it will change too.

It is possibile that more work needs to be done to customize the map. We might introduce parameters for specifying size and placement icon.

My recommendation is the following:

1) make a game
2) put it online
3) suggest changes to the DXW syntax or request a solution to your issue. The game itself will clarify the need for the changes.

Yeah, that's the way to go. Most of these things are a lot easier to comprehend when there is a game, even if if raw, online.
