Hi,

Several users are reporting issues with the dynmap "dmarker" command with adding lines to the dynmap and changes to attributes, like color. I found I could use the /dmarker updateline MarkerName color:#00aaaa attribute by doing a list and seeing what the defaults are. Kind of round-robin way of getting there and we were hoping that a simple change to the markers.yml to change the default color of red to something else would work. I looked in the jar and tried changes to the JS and CSS files and had no luck. I also noticed that while I could create a line, get it showing with the color I wanted on the map, the changes never updated my markers.yml file nor did it stay after doing a dynmap reload. There isn't an option we can find that says to update the markers.yml or any docs anywhere that provide working examples or how to update default colors for lines, circles, etc.

Additionally, when I did get the color change to show on the map no one else could see the marker. I had tested by having my wife (who has the exact same permissions as I do) test the map and she saw no lines, circles or anything.

So there are a few issues we are seeing and we're trying to reach the originator "mikeprimm" to help us with the following:

1. new updates for Spigot 1.9.4+
2. getting the markers.yml to be created again if missing/renamed after server restart
3. getting the markers.yml to be updated with /dmarker changes invoked by client or server console
4. process/documentation on how to best update the default properties to each dmarker option
5. process/documentation on how to allow all users to see the newly created changes (even if browser is refreshed)
6. prevent loss of changes added from console or client when /dynmap reload is invoked or server restarted. Only recovery appears to be recreating the entries everytime
7. best way to enhance the map generation so it a) finishes quickly and b) doesn't suck up all the hard drive resources for a world say 10,000,000 blocks. The max world size is 29,999,999 so dynmap should be able to support it and not take weeks (or ever) to complete a high-res image of the map (flat, surface, cave) for each world or gigabytes of data to achieve it.
8. finally, best place to reach you for reporting issues and getting updates to the jar file for users.

Thanks - Steve
