agentronin Posted December 17, 2020 Author Share Posted December 17, 2020 When the World Map tiles update as they should, how frequent are the updates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoiraKathleen Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I hadn't really thought about the frequency before, but fairly often - it seems like if put land up for sale, or bought land, or changed houses, etc., that when I looked at the map the next day it was current? So at least once a day? That's just a guess though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sister Nova Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I’ve noted in the past it can be anything up to 3 days 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlettaMondragon Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 (edited) The full zoomed-in tiles update about every 24 hours, the medium ones between 24-48 hours, and the full zoomed out tiles update the print about once per week. That is, when they work, because since November 17, they don't. Otherwise, you would be able to see that, if you zoom out from the high to middle zoom tile looking at a region where you made noticeable changes about 30 hours ago, by building or removing large objects, the print would be different (showing the print of the previous day), and the smallest tiles at the minimum zoom would stay the same for about a week (maybe just 5 days, I will test it when they'll work again). Oh and I forgot to add, while for the large tiles this doesn't really matter, since they would update daily, but for the medium and especially the small tiles, how quickly a print will update depends on when you or someone else made changes that affects the print, and which day the update happens. If the smallest ones update every Friday, for example, and you built something Wednesday late evening or so, I guess the smallest tiles would update to the new print about the same time as the large ones. (This is why I wasn't able to observe how many days it takes for the smallest ones to update.) Edited December 20, 2020 by AlettaMondragon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarahThe Wanderer Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 (edited) I put up 3 lands for sale 2 days ago and this is the 3rd day, and it's still not showing on the map! Edited December 22, 2020 by SarahThe Wanderer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems a different problem though, doesn't it? The map tile images are separate from the parcel-for-sale overlays, and it sure seems as if I've seen those update recently -- and as far as I can tell, the parcel-for-auction overlay has been updating normally. There's nothing preventing both processes being broken at the same time, of course, I just haven't noticed the overlays failing, so I wonder if others have, or if this could be something else going wrong.

Yes, but it's not worth opining a thread for it. Anyway it was one big land, and I subdivided them, you can have a look there if you want, and maybe you will notice something I didn't: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Farshore/30/155/5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qie Niangao Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I see what you mean. Wonder if this is a side effect of Search being broken now, too. I don't see the parcels when searching for mainland for sale, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarahThe Wanderer Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 (edited) No, The one big parcel sale was old, it's 3 parcels now, but it's stuck as one big land sale for almost 3 days now.

Noctorne Nagy Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 The problem is there is simply no map tiles at all when you zoom out 5 steps or further on the world map (within second life, I think it blanks at 1 level on the web based map). Its just blank, so you cant see for example mainland large areas to plan routes for flying/sailing or just cause you want to know where the heck on mainland you are in relation to something else.. Also clicking 'show on map' on any landmark does not work, and if you click 'about landmark' it just sits there loading... This is terrible.
