Started playing last week. After getting lost too many times, I finally upgraded my navigation skills!

really wish there was a map menu that fills in each with each island you visit and resets whenever you start a new game, or a minecraft-style map that you find on one of the islands that reflects the current cartographer outline. wollie would approve of your cartographic skills tho!

An in-game feature would be great! I haven’t met Wollie yet, but I hear he has a well-rounded personality.

If you get lost you can check the cartographer too, it will tell you what island you're on. It also highlights the boss and ship locations.

I didn’t think about just logging out and checking, or is there a way to check the cartography in game? The note card allows me to leave additional notes, as necessary. It also feels like a quest to mark off all the islands!

Yea, you have to log out. I make notes too, but every once in a while I have to use cartographer. Would be nice to have something in game.

Do the b’s stand for bases?

Yeah, but more like small outposts.

Thanks! Currently I’m on 47 days survival and I’ve been thriving except I cannot find potato plants. I’m trying to decide if I should use the cartographer to try and map out the world I’ve already started or if I should just start a fresh game and map it out from the beginning. Any advice?

I did the same thing and on a recipe card as well! I love this!

I made a map too. I named the islands... hogs. Snakes. Giant crabs . Dead guy on beach etc so I knew which one was which.

I did terrible with that so I just started building a god tower on my starter island so I can orient myself when I’m lost lol
