Access to world / street maps while inside apartment block lobby or apartment

That's basically it. No need to be able to set a destination (thought that would be great, too) but it would be helpful while I am planning my daily route to be able to do it without going all the way out of my house, out of the hall, then out of the lobby just to get to the street to check the map.

  • +1 Would be awsome - I pretty often leave my house just to check the map for something :(

  • For some reason only the expensive 50k homes have this feature. I don't know if that's intentional in that you are paying for the map service in your house.

  • That is the main thing I miss about living in Alakol - I didn't have to leave my house to look at a map. +1

  • I so agree ... In these days of hi technology why must we leave our homes to check the map????
    Also, I would still like automatic sprinklers for my garden :)

    Thank you   Q

  • I'm confused. When you guys are in your homes you can't access the map at the top right of your screen? I use that to look at the map, teleport, and set destinations all the time.  

    I have a 50k home, but I just assumed that everyone could do that!

  • Not all homes have map access when you are inside.

  • Sad! I totally support being able to use the map in any type of home.

  • A friend and I were just reflecting on this the other day. I want to see the world from my house!

  • +1. It drives me crazy when I'm at home and click on the info tab for someone in global chat (or for a rook attack) , and being reminded that I have to go outside just to see where (insert street name) is... I don't really care if I can't teleport from the house, but I'd like to be able to see a map.

  • The map works also in a 30k home.

  • @unrobot: In *some 30K homes. From what I've read in forum and on global chat when the topic has come up, not all homes have the ability. regardless of their sale price. It *seems to be associated with the time at which the housing was created and the TS thought on it at that time. Either that or it's a  bit of   snub for those of use who don't own 30/50K homes.

  • ah, but it IS a feature that might make those homes more attractive.

    many of us have said that they don't offer enough value for the currant vs. the 15k meadow houses.

    maybe this is an intended feature.
