One of the more troublesome issues of getting them out, is that there are six different version/varities for this XML (as you can see from the website). Thank you for all the great work Roogon Having recently returned to AC (but not yet having the time I used to have in game) I have recently updated my main "vanilla" version of the database. The others I have yet to add and make changes to. The link for the "vanilla" one is in my signature. RoogonII posted: On the upside, I went HD with the corrrdinates. The arrow will now lead you right to the target, within a matter of a few feet. Because of the trouble to change all the corrdinates, I have only just started to up them to HD. This is all thanks to Mag requesting it for settlement portals and Flip developing the tools for me to work on them. BTW, This tool has shrunk the size of the download of the XML to half it's size.

	I think he means he added more precision to the coordinates, so that it will point you to the exact spot. Example: 50.5N 50.5E versus 50.59N 50.59E are actually not all that close together. The second one is much more precise.

	High Def... yup more precise. He's using Tings IG '/Atlas' command which records selected item to Atlas database and then uses AC Companion to make edits as needed. It does record more precise co-ordinates.

	Sorry Darktorizo for my abbreviation of HD. I started using that with Flip. As he said, I nick-name HD for High Definition location coordinates. Here's a example of Fiun Rehlyun at the Fiun Outpost. He is located at 95.9N 57.0W His old coordinates in the GoArrow XML was .. -95.90000 -57.00000 His HD location .. -95.86302 -56.99708 Where he stands by himself, HD is not really needed (and a bit of overkill). Now, apply the same idea to the portals in the Town Network. Better yet, the portals at a Settlement Portals location. Then the value is gain. In the credits above, I need to mention that VI had given me access to HD info too. Flip's tool is what made it easy, and needed. I've yet to publish anything with HD numbers. My day job has had me busy in recent months. I'm working hard to get some release in the next few days. As for the smaller size of the XML (helps with downloading it), I ran into a problem and had to back-track. The condense size version would not work with the Dereth Explorer mapping utility.
