Minimap

The Minimap is a tool for navigating the game map without having to drag it around blindly. Opening it shows a full map of the county in which the area on which the game map is centered, although if the map is centered on the northern or eastern edge of a county, the mini-map will display the county to the north or east, respectively. A white box shows the centered area and markers show the locations of all towns, ghost towns, forts, quest givers, and the job selected in the drop-down list. The player's current location is also shown if he or she is located in the displayed county.

Job List

The drop-down list on the right shows all Jobs which you can currently see based on your Labor Points and level. If your LP are too low, the job will not be visible. If you change gear to see a job you couldn't see before, you must refresh to add any new jobs to the list. Selecting a job shows all of that job's locations in the county on the Minimap with a light blue dot.

Micro Map

The micro map is the small map in the lower right corner. It shows the location of the county being viewed in the Minimap in relation to the rest of the counties in the world. Moving the cursor over each county shows its name, if any. You and your town are also shown on the micro map with a yellow and blue dot respectively. Your location doesn't automatically update on the micro map without refreshing.
