Votan's Improved Locations  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 1.22.3
by: votan [More]
DependenciesDescription
On one hand, the "Locations" tab of the world-map does what it needs to do and all locations fit on screen without scrollbar.
On the other hand, it looks very bare and squeezed. Pseudo locations like "Tamriel" and "Aurbis" are mixed together with locations of all alliances, just in alphabetic order.

This add-on improves the "Locations" tab of the world-map window.
  • It adds a Most-Recent-Used list (MRU) to the top. Your currently last visited locations are the top five. (Similar to "Faster Travel", because it is an obvious useful feature )
  • The locations are grouped by alliance and your character's alliance will be the first, then Cadwell Silver, Gold.
  • Since 1.2.0 you can enable showing zone level. <= Obsolete since "One Tamriel"
  • Since 1.3.0 you can enable showing "All Alliances" zones on top (below recent list).
  • Since 1.8.0 gamepad mode support.
  • Since 2.20.0 A re-written version of "Survey the World" from manavortex, with her permission.

Alliances are indicated by the icons: Scrolls, moon and sun. The scrolls indicate your character's main alliance, the crescent moon indicates Cadwell's Silver alliance, and the sun indicates Cadwell's Gold alliance. (Which is why Coldharbour is a scroll - since you only do that for the main alliance.)
The book with a down arrow indicates DLC/Chapters. The tower is for PvP zones.
The numbers indicate story order/DLC release order.

Btw I was wondering, my partner doesnt like having the recent locations section, is there a way to turn it off by edeting the lua file? Or maybe even a way to decrease the recent locations stored down to 1 rather then 5?

Awesome Thanks for that, Also, would it be possible to add new zone entries using there Zone ID code by adding new lines such as a code string like this for Murkmire?

-- [32] =
{
-- "Trübmoor",
alliance = ALLIANCE_DAGGERFALL_COVENANT,
zoneIndex = 405
}

And thanks for the banana
Also is there any way to seperate Wrothgar from the cloning process so that it could theoretically added to say Daggerfall Covenant without adding Elsweyr etc ?

On this subject, I am not able to find any reference string's to Elsweyr or Murkmire in any of your lua files to better categories these aswell as there allied factions. Some information on where I am going wrong or what I seem to be missing would be much apreciated.

Hi @MotokoHutt,

that is because "new", "unknown" zones are created by cloning the zone 27 (Wrothgar).
But When I do the same to say Abah's landing, it simply stop's the entire addon from working entirely. Also, I do not mean any disrespect as I enjoy the addon, seems abit weird to clone an already exhisting ID for adding unknown Zone Index's no? would it not be better to create an unspecified template to clone instead ?

I did update the description. Zone level is obsolete. Thanks
The symbols are the ones from the "Cadwell's Almanac". You will know.
