Sorry to double post but I really would like some feedback on how I can improve this map or if I indeed should improve on this map in any way.

Please let me know, thanks.

I know a little bit of the Universe and I think it's pretty good but you have some overlapping names that are hard to read in the PNG.

I don't understand why some sectors are more important than others. Coruscant is an important system and the surrounding systems too.

What is the name of the area past the Mid rim ? I do have the book but I can't find it.

Does it represent a specific era of the Universe? If yes, it could be a good idea to add the date.

And other than that, I wonder if you want to show something particular on the map. I get overwhelmed by the number of star systems. Some are more important than other (population, economy, story telling). Maybe you could try to make these important systems stand out. It could make navigation on the map easier to find informations.

Perhaps it would help if you posted a picture of the map instead of just external links.

[Fallini]

@Bogie Thanks for the response and will do. I personally thought the picture was too big to put into a post hence why I posted the external links. I will update my first post accordingly.

Thanks again for the response.

@Azelor Thanks for your response, yep I completely forgot to put the "Outer Rim" thanks for pointing that out. The systems chosen are the same ones that appear on the map of the Atlas of the Galaxy and I have not taken any out or put any in based on significance. I recommend you view the .pdf version if you can as, although a longer load, you can zoom into any level and search for any text. The .png version is yet to be optimized for .png, many of the smaller places and areas will have to be removed from it as it is impossible to view such things.

This does not represent a particular era of the universe as the politcal borders have been taken out though it was closely aligned to 77ABY era hence why the major trade routes are there. I will clarify that in the image. The plan is in the future to have different kinds of maps based on this one such as economic, species and population versions of the map.

I will have to go through the systems and get rid of some of the more unimportant ones and put in more of the important ones.

Also some sectors are shown because there is a more detailed map available for those sectors through wookieepedia. Such as the Hapes cluster and Hutt Space, I plan on doing individual maps based on these sector maps. I should probably rename those blue areas from "sectors" to something else though to be a bit mroe clear about this.

Thanks for the feedback it is much appreciated.

@Fallini That is an excellent map, I feel that the Unknown Regions surround all of known space(making known space an island sort of), I don't feel it needs to be shown physically there, just a thought really. What are your thoughts on this idea?

[Fallini]

agreed, Though actually what you are describing sounds more like wild space which was on the very outskirts of the known galaxy so I will probably represent this in a way that has no actual border but is shown.

Where's Alderan, thought it was Deep Core?

Ponder on,

Howdy,

Another question, where's Hoth?
