Compatibility with Draw On Map

Draw On Map works by adding a LOT of "dot" annotations to your map to simulate drawing lines. This can lead to thousands of symbols created.

Project Zomboid has a 2,097,152 bytes limit for player objects when saving them to the database. Player objects include inventory, which may include a Shared Map created with this mod. Now, if you created a map containing thousands of symbols, you may hit the 2MB limit, meaning that your player cannot be saved anymore. If that happens, you will see a red box error in the bottom right corner.

This simply means that you cannot keep that map item in your inventory, because it contains too much data (the thousands of "dots" created by Draw On Map). After using the map (e.g. remembering annotations), you can drop it on the ground, store it or delete it, and your character should be fine again.

@laV8 hey thanks for the feedback. This message means that some error occurred. To see the actual error, you have to be in debug mode (-debug launch option) and check the debug console when that happens. This is not ideal, so I'll make it easier to find the error message in a future update.

Hi, I kept getting "I couldn't create these notes" when trying to jot down annotation. My friend could share his annotation with I couldn't even put down mine. The only map mod I am using is extra symbols and map legend.

@Mystake this was a bug fixed last January 19th. You don't need to read the map first. Could you be using an older version of the mod? Maybe as part of a modpack?

Not sure if this is a bug or me being new to PZ, but when picking a new annotated map, I right clicked it and went straight to share annotation but when actually going to the marked house, nothing is spawning. Am I making a mistake by not opening the annotated map first, before using the mod to add it to main map?

just a follow up - it SEEMS like there's no problem using it with the shared faction map mod.
I've got a bunch of the Symbols Mod, Map Symbol Size Slider (though as per instruction on Faction we don't use it on faction map only on personal map) and then this + draw on map, and it seems to work fine.
Guess just have to worry about using the drawing feature too liberally to avoid the corruption chance.

Mod works great in B42, however, is there a way to hide the extra notes on the top left when viewing the map?

If I remove by clicking on the X, it'll remove the annotated on the map. It also gives an error. I just wish to hide it.

@marshmallow justice probably? it's impossible for modders to test compat with all other mods, so we rely on players to let us know if there's an issue

can it work with https://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2877685881&searchtext= ?

being able to add Annotated maps that you find is so good. I pick up the annotated maps, but it's a feature I never really care to follow up with since often they are leading to places ages away, and I'm not gonna carry a bunch of maps on me. Merging them into the player map is so amazing.

also TIL about the byte limit. I guess I have to remove 'Draw on Map' just in case then in case it ever happens. Since I doubt i would ever remember when it might happen.
