[QUOTE="Mapmaker, post: 1148212, member: 9272"] That's a neat idea, but I'm not sure how I could illustrate it in such a way that it would be useful for multiple sporting events...and if I make a football stadium, people who want to run an adventure at a baseball diamond or hockey rink are going to be out of luck. There's also an as-yet-undiscovered trait of these maps that makes large maps rather tricky: every GPS map is illustrated using the exact same scale, so that (theoretically) you can lay them out next to each other and the squares on one map are the same size as the squares on the next. There may be variations resulting from magazine layout process, but for the most part you can spread these out and let the action move from one to the other. (Anyone notice that the Corporate Office Building map shows part of the Bank map across the street?) :) Already on the list. :) Also already on the list. :) Congratulations! You might be the first person (aside from the staff at Paizo) to have noticed one of my vehicular easter eggs. ;) There have been a few maps that didn't include some sort of easter egg...but not many. (And they're not all cars, in case you're wondering.) Happy Hunting, and thanks for the suggestions! [/QUOTE]
