Thanks for your plugin, I can't imagine playing AC without it. Two issues:

When a map is unavailable (but one does exist) is there a way to add it? For example, I've found maps of the various Bur dungeons, but GoArrow says none are available.

The map for the Lev60 Matron Hive was coming up for the Lev80 Matron Hive. Is there a way to correct this?

The Plugin is not Mine, It was created by Digero, I only maintain and update the locations database as it is no longer being updated on the CoD Servers.

Ironically I just asked Digero a similar Question. His response:

Digero posted:
It's been a long time since I've looked at the Dungeon Map code... I didn't design it to work with anything other than ACMaps, the URLs are hard-coded. So in short: no, you can't add maps that aren't on the ACMaps site. GoArrow redownloads the dungeons.txt file from ACMaps if it's over a day old, so manually editing it won't work in general. And if the dungeon isn't listed in that file, then GoArrow won't attempt to download it (this avoids hitting the ACMaps server with tons of erroneous requests).

Is the map you're trying to use available on http://www.acmaps.com ? If it's listed there but not available in GoArrow, that just means that the list of maps that ACMaps provides is out of date -- you'll need to ask them to update their dungeon_ids.csv file.

I believe the above also answers this question.

My suggestion for "Missing" Dungeons and Incorrect IDs on Dungeons would be to notify Greeneye greeneye@acmaps.com and have them do as Digero said and update their dungeon_ids.csv with the proper information. Also you will want to include the correct dungeon ID if there is an error, or to add a new Dungeon.

To get the Dungeon ID go to the Dungeon that needs to be added or fixed and type @loc in the chat box. It will spit out something like:

Your location is: 0xC06F0025 [COORDINATES] Numbers

The Dungeon ID is the 4 digits after the 0x. The 4 after that are the landblock ID which really only applies to Dungeons not inside of portals. (E.g. Frozen Cave, Small Mukkir Nest)

I hope this information helps out.
