The new eRepublik map
Plato
Dear citizens,
About a month ago we promised you that pretty soon eRepublik would receive its deserved and much needed professional map. A map to mirror rapid changes that occur in the New World. A map to show you how big your empire is, or what enemies surround the region you live in. A map to show you the richest regions of eRepublik, as well as the most populated ones. A map to develop military strategies as well as a map for managers searching productive regions. A map for everybody!
Well, there we have it, like we have promised! The new map is live (can reach it by clicking Info-World Map) showing you The New World like you have never seen it before. Filtering tools are located in the upper part of the map.
In the far upper left zone we have the zooming tool, which you can use to zoom in order to see more details. For example, when the zoom level is 0, you can see the complete map, with all countries. After a certain level of zooming, the regions constituting countries appear. Once your zooming level is high enough that you can see regions not just countries, additional info is available by just clicking a region: name of the region, country currently owning the region, population of the region, resources available in the region, and constructions (hospital, defense system) built in region. Some of the information is updated virtually in real-time, while other info, such as population number, has a small delay. But the delay for the update is no longer than 24 hours, at most.
Near the zooming tool we have a mini map, which you can use to navigate faster than point-click-drag across the entire regular map. You may hide this mini map, if you wish.
Next we have country selection tool. Here you can quickly navigate to a specific country. By selecting any country from the drop down list, the map automatically moves and centers on the selected country. Also, having choose a particular country will add two more filters: its active MPP`s and trading embargoes.
Next we have set of filters which offers us a range of information. By choosing “Political Map” we see the normal map, showing countries and regions. By choosing “Population” we see the distribution of population across the New World, that is, the densities. The filter “Active Battles” highlights the regions having an active battle in the moment of selection. Next, we have the "Resources" filter, which shows the Iron, Oil, Wood, Diamonds and Grain distribution across the New World. And finally, we have the "Constructions" filter, which can highlight what kind of hospital or defense system are built, what quality and in which region.
The last filter is the date selection. You might be interested how the world looked a week ago, or a month ago, etc. Nothing simpler, just select the desired date, and you'll see the world configuration as it was back then. This “tracking” of history started today, with the implementation of the new map.
One thing that should be taken into consideration: at least at high level of zooming, when there are lots of information on the screen, you need a fairly good computer to manipulate the map fluently. Older generation computers might have problems dragging the map for example, on such high levels of zoom.
We would like to emphasize that the new eRepublik map is in its beta phase, so changes/improvements might occur.
Another changes you may have noticed are on the graphical side: our team redesigned most of the icons seen in eRepublik.
Concerning the Party President Election, we are working on it and will fix it soon.Tomorrow at most we will solve this issue.
The Spanish version of eRepublik has been updated and we encourage native Spanish citizen to use it. Any issues concerning the translation should be reported using the Feedback department.
Regards,
The eRepublik Team

Poor Gobba 🙂
Good job, the map is very good even though it's still in beta 😉
you can do better 😃
Finland = White or blue. Not brownish green.

I think, it's importand to fix bugs (for example party-section) before you come with new maps, icons and so on...
Good 🙂
new map is cool ^.^
good
Ps:First page 😁
nice😉
needs aliances to be shown
I prefer Gobbas map.

Deadly
Great work!
nice 😁
An improvement would be to be able to filter to see the orginal owners of a region, not only the current.
Looks nice 🙂
Some notes about the new map:
- Needs speed improvemnent, is consumes many memory
- I don't like that, its needed to zoom in to see the regions
- It would be cool to add the borders
- The colours of the resourses filter would need more contrast
Anyways it pretty
good but there are some region control errors
Thanks!
nice ;v
Cool Map.
low-medium-high regions must have greater shade-difference!
gobba's map is still better 😉
replacing Gobbas? 🙁
Another thing, the "Nord Norge" word is a bit misplaced on the map, it's placed in Norrland and Sameland, while the regions Nord Norge does not have any word on it.
I get a mostly blank page.
excellent!!!
nice 😃
I too think Gobba's map is better, but if this map is in beta, and will improve, then it is ok.
Thank you Gobba for your map - shame the Admins still won't give you much recognition for it!
egobba is better i think 😛
I've seen it. It's excellent!
whats the problem with everybody egobba's map is NOT better than this ofc 😑
good job. is there going to be a link on the home page?
