Syntax

{{Map Point Plus
 | <Coords> | <N or S> | <Coords> | <E or W> | <Marker> | <Caption>
 | <Coords> | <N or S> | <Coords> | <E or W> | <Marker> | <Caption>
 | <Coords> | <N or S> | <Coords> | <E or W> | <Marker> | <Caption>
}}

Usage

Displays multiple locations (up to 30) on a large map of Dereth given specific coordinates. You can use either upper or lower case letters (e, w, n, s or E, W, N, S). If the marker is blank, the Large will be used, if the caption is left blank, no caption will be used. Note that because the coordinates need to be transformed into a point on the map, if a coordinate or direction parameter is missing or malformed the page will not render correctly.

For each point you specify the marker to that will be placed on that point and a caption describing the point. If the mouse cursor hovers over the point the caption will popup. For a smaller map that displays one to four points use Template:Map Point. Note that unlike Map Point, for Map Point Plus you must leave a blank for the caption even if left blank. The page will not render if a caption or marker is skipped.

You can create new markers if desired, create a 9x9 pixel png image. If the icon doesn't cover the entire area, make the surrounding pixels transparent (with GIMP, Layer>>Transparency>>Color to Alpha, set white to alpha and save). And if the nontransparent bits are smaller than 9x9, center the image. Name the file "Map Point <Name>.png" and upload it and simply refer to it as <Name> (for example, Map Point Large.png is referenced as Large).
