using a different computer to submit today's orders, but I find I have only a fragment of my map because of it.
I tried the request map button on the site, but after putting in my info, I send it and get a 404 Not Found.

am I missing something?

No you are not missing anything. This is how I think it works (and am ready to be corrected by people who actually know).

Each turn only sends out a limited part of the map, the part you can actually see plus a little bit surrounding that. All historical map stuff is stored locally in your tartarus directory. I am sure you could copy the map file between PC's but I haven't bothered to try.

The request map function is not fully (at all?) implemented.

I get caught in this trap now and then, you just have to work with what you have. If it is only for a turn or two then I find that it is not much of a problem

You are quite correct.

And yes, you can copy mapfiles, I have to do it every Friday from work to home and then on Sunday from home to work.

If your very nice to an elder ... one of them might give you a copy of their map ... I seem to remember getting mine from a member of The Cube (a long dead alliance)

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but eureka! I completely forgot about my version of the Cube's map still stored in my Yahoo account! Thanks Mad!

Haha! Sphere here I come!

The server has copies of everyones map - and the request map used to work fine. But about 18months ago (ish) I upgraded something and it broke....and no one ever shouted at me to fix it, so it remains broke (n).

Sorry about that.

I don't think it would have given me my old map though since I had to restart. (But you know more.)

errr... Not sure.

Ok if we ask nicely now can you fix it ??

Maybe

Did we forget to ask nicely ???

Sorry ....

Oh please great and mighty god of the sphere can you fix the map request ?
