Suggestion Regular Updates for the Dynamic Maps

[yeelowsnow]

I'd like to propose that the Dynamic Maps for Aegis and Sanctuary be updated on the 20th of every month.

This will help to show how the server is progressing and will keep the maps somewhat dynamic.

Regular DynaMap updates give everyone a sense of the extent of what is being created in the life of these maps, and of interesting places to visit.

Updated maps really help people who are building public infrastructure like roads, or who are deciding where to place towns or other structures.

Many people would eagerly anticipate a regularly updated map.

I can't agree with this enough so I wont try

Issue is with performance having it always updating, etc.

Not so sure we want to open them can of worms. That's really the only reason, @Coders can you think of a better way to automate this without killing main-thread performance?

We're not asking for constant updates, as you said performance is key. But a monthly scheduled update to the dyn-maps would be nice. I mentioned the 20th of each month since that was the day the map started.

I would like scheduled update of this map.This can help new player travel easily without lost to their own town. :3

We can always launch the update during a night. That way the least amount of people are affected and it would have less effect on the server performance.
