I've followed on from Biglines' excellent work, with the intention of making one map that can be viewed easily at a glance. I had to rotate the maps a little to reduce overlapping of the ladders, but it's still very crowded around map E. Have only done half the tunnels so far - think all the tunnels on one map would be even harder to read. Please let me know what you think, any suggestions for improvements are welcome. -- Heathen 13:00, 06 July 2008 (BST)

Yup, I've seen the Cyberdine Systems version [1], they've done a good job of fitting it all in, but all the cross-over lines make it a little awkward to follow smoothly - in my opinion.
I've tried to keep everything lined up to make it easier to get a feel of where you are, does it help?
Sorry about the width, I remembered to keep it to 1024x768 to allow for lower res monitors, just forgot to allow for the wiki menu bar - does it fit better now? --Heathen 15:50, 6 July 2008 (BST)

I tried that, but I think it needs the black as a contrast - particularly the ladders/lines seem to fade into the grey. The black still fits in with the wiki theme, in the menu/title etc., and your individual maps all have black backgrounds too. ;-)
