Hamma, the triangular prism diagram (two triangles, one above the other)
http://www.planetside-universe.com/i...sgeometry2.jpg
was based off the SmokeJumper-approved map & gates you have currently posted in your news section. The reason I made it was because that map version looks like spagetti and it is really hard to visualise the
interaction of each continent.
In the TP diagram, the colored lines from each Sanctuary show the empire exclusive warpgates. All other continents are color coded:
Orange continents - 1 hop to conflict, HOTSPOT continent
Yellow continents - 2 hops, so less likely to meet enemies and in lesser numbers.
Green continents - 3 hops from enemy. Your faction's Back door for when things are really ugly out there, or for people wanting to get places without being easily noticed.
Hope that helps clarify the diagram.
