[LVS] TFZ Minecart Map for Nether Hub

A first edition map I created for the Nether Hub is online!

Full link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B31l3FNyi9gJS0h5aEN4OXdaYk0
Short Link: https://goo.gl/1Jq1W2

I attempted to create it in a way that shows the stations / stops with some geographical accuracy, yet not enough to give away people's exact locations.
Any feedback on the design would be great.

To celebrate its completion, I have decided to found a new organisation on the server, TFZ - Transport for Zedwork.
TFZ will aim to explore, record, map and maintain the rails around the server.
I would really appreciate any suggestions as to where I should build the HQ. I'm thinking somewhere close to spawn, or maybe even off of one of the Nether Hub rooms?

If you'd like to support or join TFZ, please post a reply or message me! :)

Aye, I would love to help; I know that it is very easy to get lost in the nether hub(s) and a more detailed map would be great to have. I actually didn't even know where the dragon egg was being kept until yesterday myself, so that shows you how much... adventure... I have going through the hubs. :lol:

That being said (and I'm sure you have and will), make sure you get people who do not want the main lines to their bases to say so, as some members of the server prefer privacy. I'm sure that bases in the border tunnels and directly off the hubs (especially the main hub) can't be helped, and it's to be expected most who have a base off there are indeed aware they may get some heavy traffic.

Looks cool. I would like the N, E, S, W markers to have a Z+, X+, Z-, X- markers next to them. Although I think many knows which is which, it might remove some confusion

To clarify. The North marker and East marker could look something like this North (Z axis +) and East (X axis +). Meaning If you are in the North East Zone, your X and Z axis are both positive.

Cheers, my next step is to create a couple of Google Spreadsheets.
One will be public, where players can add their names to a list of hubs if they wish to be included.
The other will be private. This one will only be visible to members of 'TFZ' and will include coordinates to help with our map designs.

:twisted: :!: :o :shock: Did you do that deliberately?!
- Your comment made me realise that the whole dang map was inverted. The way I had been plotting meant that although N and S were correct, E and W were wrong!!

We are now on V2 of the map! :lol: The map has been corrected to true N,E,S,W and your request to add Z+X+ have been added! :D The links in first post should be the same.

Sounds good, Elias. I'll head into the nether hub a bit later and get some of my bearings in one of the directions and start marking some tunnels. :D

Wow holy moly that's a lot of stuff, good job! just though I'd let you know that "Anzaro" is one of my bases and it is actually spelt "Anzard". The "d" banner does look a lot like an "O" so I understand the confusion. Keep up the good work!

I noticed that number 1 on the white line had no label. I believe it should have been "Mathpe".
That's added.

Also...

... has been fixed. Red Line 4 = Anzard. :)
