Thumb images

Map images are shown as thumbnail images (small images) to prevent slow load and performance issues.

Thumb images should be in webp format, 300px wide (the maximum allowed thumbnail size in user preferences). Height doesn't matter.

Changing the format and resizing can be done with an online tool or locally. Author recommends using libwebp — the official webp CLI utility, although that requires some console commands knowledge.

If using libwebp, to convert from another image format to webp and resize, use:

cwebp map_image.png -o map_image.webp -resize 300 0 -q 100

where map_image.png is the input filename, and map_image.webp is the output filename.

Full size images

3 links at the start of each section link to:

  1. map.spacestation14.com - an interactive map.
  2. this wiki - for storing full scale map images here on the wiki.
  3. mapserver.spacestation14.com - the source for the full scale images. Should be up to date with new updates [1]

For the wiki image, use a direct link to the image file instead of the file page. File pages contain previous versions and can degrade performance significantly. To get a direct link, click the image file or the "original file" link.
