So I've recently started mapping aetherspace, and I'm planning on making the maps available to the general public. Granted, I'm nowhere near done with them, but this will at least give you a general idea of where I'm heading:

First of all, I'm not exactly a brilliant graphics person. What you see above is only the background colour of the tiles (so Nil and various walls have the same colour). Wouldn't mind suggestions on how to display everything!
Second, is there actually a way to get to Vortex and Continuum? FYI, those (according to the directions given in aetherspace) are in the black walls west of the green swirly thing up in the northeast (which, BTW, is the Eternal Ouroborous).
EDIT: Oh, and just so you know, this is just a dump of the raw maps I have on disc, which maps it as symbols with foreground and background colours.

You launch Guidance of Shadows into the aetherways.

There is an aetherways dock here connected to before a pulsating orifice.
You are floating in aether.

There is a barely perceptible shift as Guidance of Shadows sails to a rest.

In essence, you can't get to at least Vortex (probably Continuum as well) by aethership. Yes, I know there are bixes to get there anyway, but... you can get to every other plane and every other bubble by aethership. Vortex and Continuum should be no exception.
Big thanks for helping me with the project goes out to:

The two clumped up labels in the bottom four are "aetherbubble" and "sagittarius". The one in the top right should say "aetherprimefissure", but it got kinda cut off.
The last I heard about continuum/vortex was that they'll remain isolated. I gather that the fix is pretty finnicky/complicated (that area has been broken in many and various ways since its release), and the space so little used, that it's not worth the time to address it with so many other major projects going on. That's not a direct quote or anything.
Vive l'apostrophe!
No thanks go out to the dragons this time

Estarra the Eternal says, "Give Shevat the floor please."
Hmm. I'd have to modify stuff a bit code-wise, and I'm not sure how well the lines would turn out, but I'll definitely look into it if my other ideas don't work.
I also uploaded a not-entirely-or-even-nearly-done version of Elemental, in case anyone's desperate enough to look at it to go looking for it. Just thought I'd let you know
