== Google Maps ==
 
 
 
This wiki runs a modified version of the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Google_Maps Google Maps extension] for [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki MediaWiki].  The <nowiki><googlemap></nowiki> tag allows wiki users to create zoom-able, pan-able maps of Egypt with customized markers.
 
 
 
Simply add the following on a wiki page to create a default map:
 
 
 
<nowiki><googlemap>
 
</googlemap></nowiki>
 
 
 
This will generate a map like:
 
 
 
<googlemap>
 
</googlemap>
 
 
 
 
 
== Markers ==
 
 
 
In the content of the tag, you can define one marker per line. Each line may or may not start with an icon name in parentheses.  The line should then have the latitude (x), then a comma, optionally a space, then the longitude (y), then a comma, then a label for the point. The label can include wiki mark-up (and commas).
 
 
 
 
 
A list of markers is available on [[User:Mayanah/map|Mayanahs map page.]]
 
ATITD.org now hosts local copies of most of the icons Mayanah graciously provided.  These are used by default if the ''icons'' tag is not provided; the icons follow the same naming convention as Mayanahs page.  Click here to show all locally hosted markers: http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale5/images/markers or visit [[Rogarian/GoogleMapMarkerTest]] which shows all 1461 locally stored pins ('''Warning: will be VERY slow!''').
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
'''Marker Usage Example:'''
 
 
 
<nowiki><googlemap zoom="2" height="512" lon="0" controls="small" showposition="yes" showregion="yes" scrollwheel="nothing">
 
(GH) 700,600,here goes the title
 
400, 400, here goes the title, it can contain commas but not wiki markup
 
(S) 100, 100, here goes the title
 
first line of the caption
 
Second line of the caption, not that the caption can contain wiki markup like [[Resources]]
 
<br><br>
 
</googlemap></nowiki>
 
 
 
 
 
<googlemap zoom="2" height="512" lon="0" controls="small" showposition="yes" showregion="yes" scrollwheel="nothing">
 
(GH) 700,600,here goes the title
 
400, 400, here goes the title, it can contain commas but not wiki markup
 
(S) 100, 100, here goes the title
 
first line of the caption
 
Second line of the caption, not that the caption can contain wiki markup like [[Resources]]
 
<br><br>
 
</googlemap>
 
 
 
 
 
== Tabbed Info Balloons ==
 
 
 
Each tab should have a plain-text title surrounded by inward-leaning slashes (like /this\) followed by a caption that can include wiki mark-up. Tabs will be attached to the previous marker. Example:
 
 
 
<nowiki>
 
<googlemap zoom="2" height="512" lon="0" controls="small" showposition="yes" showregion="yes" scrollwheel="nothing">
 
(pyramid) 900,100
 
/Info\
 
This is where a pharaoh is buried! ;) (Not really)
 
/Directions\
 
[http://maps.google.com Click here] to get driving directions
 
Or just drive in a random direction
 
</googlemap></nowiki>
 
 
 
That will create a point whose info balloon has two tabs. Note that you can put as much or as little space as you'd like between the title and the caption to make the syntax more readable.
 
 
 
If a point has a regular caption ''and'' tabbed captions, clicking the point will only show the tabbed captions.
 
 
 
'''Example Map:'''
 
 
 
<googlemap zoom="2" height="512" lon="0" controls="small" showposition="yes" showregion="yes" scrollwheel="nothing">
 
(pyramid) 900,100
 
/Info\
 
This is where a pharaoh is buried! ;) (Not really)
 
/Directions\
 
[http://maps.google.com Click here] to get driving directions
 
Or just drive in a random direction
 
</googlemap>

Other Commands (Not useful for game maps):

All attributes are optional.
 
 
 
 
 
== Customized Icons ==
 
 
 
You can host your own collection of icons on your server, but note that they'll have the same anchor points as ATITD.org's default icon (32x32). Check out [http://mapki.com/wiki/Icon_Image_Sets Mapki's collection of icon images] for a bunch of icons you can use. To use your icons, add an icon attribute to your googlemap-tags like this
 
 
 
<nowiki><googlemap lat="42.711618" lon="-73.205112" zoom="2" controls="small"
 
icon="http://myserver.com/standardmarker.png"
 
icons="http://myserver.com/markers/marker{label}.png"></nowiki>
 
 
 
[[User:Mayanah|Mayanah]] has some instructions for using an alternate set of icons [[User:Mayanah/map|map here]] and a set of [[User:Mayanah/map#Mine_Specific|Mine Specific]] icons and [[User:Mayanah/map#Quarry_Specific|Quarry Specific]]on the same page.
