Adding a subsector map

Use Template:InfoboxSubsector. If you read the page it has a list of parameters to the template and an example of how to use it. Copy and paste the {{InfoboxTemplate ... }} to the top of the page and replace the (for example) {Subsector Name} documentation descriptions with the actual values. For any value you don't know, leave blank. We can fill the values in later.

This won't work quite correctly because the code to select the subsector doesn't work with the far away sectors (as Traveller Maps calls them). But that's for me to fix. Use the template, and I'll fix it. Tjoneslo (talk) 07:44, 21 December 2016 (EST)

Ah, for this to work we'll need to put in a "Precipice Sector" page with the correct coordinates using the Template:InfoboxSector, and the x of 69 and the y of -60. This should get us in the ballpark location. Tjoneslo (talk) 07:56, 21 December 2016 (EST)

Tried that and it didn't seem to work out. I have downloaded the subsector data from TravellerMap, is there any way to generate the map by transcribing the data?Graham2001 (talk) 07:02, 23 December 2016 (EST)

I have an (offline) map generator for subsectors. You can see an example here: Pretoria Subsector#Politics and Diplomacy : New Era. If you don't mind that map, the nice thing is we can use it to make a clickable image map too. Tjoneslo (talk) 07:42, 23 December 2016 (EST)
