Map (General command)

map

The map command allows anyone who is currently in the wilderness to check their maps and figure out their current location in the world. As analyzing the surrounding terrain and checking it with the map takes time and effort, this command costs endurance to use and can only be used every few seconds. The efficacy of this command is determined by your wilderness skill; the higher it is, the bigger the map you will see -- however, new players do not need to worry; even with 0 wilderness, consulting the map can be very useful in finding your way around. The displayed map size can also be affected by certain items that help in exploring, such spyglasses.
