Maps not working on Explorer servers generated in editor is not a good idea. People need a way to navigate around the world. The advantage of stock explore servers without any of the cool upgrades that you can do via editor is too strong right now because of the issues mentioned

Sounds like the "birds not working" problem all over again.

And I agree.  If the editor generates an explore map, it needs to be able to function like a regular explore map in all the main ways (of course we understand the exception for the random encounters).  Creating mini-games is interesting and fun, but so is creating larger customized maps for community servers.  And in the (current) absence of admin functionality, the added scripts are kind of a necessity if someone wants a public server that's actually manageable and sustainable.  It's all worthless, though, if the "explore" part of it simply doesn't work.

I understand admins may change the map so you can't have it accurate but not having a map makes sailing impossible really so we need a check box for that.

We are working on a map, that would 'evolve' to how the admins change the world or the possibility of custom maps, but that will take still some time. The map we use in 'normal' Exploration maps doesn't work in Editor maps.

Also our Exploration should be the 'go to' for Exploration (that's whhy it's the premium option) and no two Exploration maps will be the same (with the amount of encounters and different layouts we have) ?

While 'upgraded' Exploration maps are also really cool with your take on it, the most exciting thing for us on the Editor and Creators working in the Editor is that you can make absolutely anything and not just 'upgraded' Exploration maps ?Though some of the Exploration maps out there by you guys are also really neat ?
