The diagram below illustrates how the various maps in AL DOHRAL fit together.
At the top of the diagram is GRID 6, the WORLD GRID includes 49 CONTINENTAL GRIDS
shown as single CELLS here, each represents approx. 2,689,120 meters on a side or approx.
2,689 kilometers (1,783 miles). The whole of this GRID represents 13,841,287,201
NWN Area Maps of 16x16 Tiles arranged as a 117,649 x 117,649 grid.
Progressing toward the bottom of the diagram GRID 5, the next level includes 49
REGIONAL GRIDS which are shown as single CELLS here, each represents approx.
384,160 meters on a side or approx. 384 kilometers (255 miles). The whole of this
GRID represents 282,475,249 NWN Area Maps of 16x16 Tiles arranged as a 16,807x16,807
grid.
Progressing toward the bottom of the diagram GRID 4, the next level includes 49
UBER GRIDS which are shown as single CELLS here, each represents approx. 54,880 meters
on a side or approx. 55 kilometers (36 miles). The whole of this GRID represents
5,764,801 NWN Area Maps of 16x16 Tiles arranged as a 2401x2401 grid.
Progressing toward the bottom of the diagram GRID 3, the next level includes 49
MID GRIDS which are shown as single CELLS here, each represents approx. 7,840 meters
on a side or approx. 8 kilometers (5 miles). The whole of this GRID represents
117,649 NWN Area Maps of 16x16 Tiles arranged as a 343x343 grid.
Progressing toward the bottom of the diagram GRID 2, the next level includes 49
BASE GRIDS which are shown as single CELLS here, each represents approx. 1,120 meters
on a side or approx. 1 kilometers (0.75 miles). The whole of this GRID represents
2401 NWN Area Maps of 16x16 Tiles arranged as a 49x49 grid.
Progressing toward the bottom of the diagram GRID 1, the next level includes 49 OF
THE NWN TOOLSET AREAS which are shown as single CELLS here, each represents approx. 160
meters on a side or approx. TWO FOOTBALL FIELDS (560' OR 186.666~ YARDS). The whole of
this GRID represents 49 NWN Area Maps of 16x16 Tiles arranged as a 7x7 grid.
At the time of writing, designs mapped, and plugged-in span a full GRID 2 in size. If this area, represented by 16 servers, proves popular enough, more will be built and linked.
