Information

The following images show maps on which to take extra steps for this route. The exact location to take these steps is only a suggestion. Feel free to find a location that works better for you, but be mindful of tiles that don't count as steps. You might also review the Summary or Detail tabs for important encounter information. Most of them are shown here, but due to limitations in the current route output format, they can't always be assigned to the correct map.

If you have any trouble following these maps, or if you think there is an error, please contact me. I've tried my best to ensure their accuracy, but they are automatically generated and errors may have crept in nonetheless. If there is a problem, I can fix it, and if there isn't, I can at least point out where you made a mistake.
