This update introduces a new tool for Admins/GMs to (hopefully) simplify character management on the server and disclose some information about user activity or inactivity.
All administrators and login-enabled groups with the respective permission will find this new button in the navigation. It’ll display a table of all characters and their details on the server. The table can be filtered by different criteria and sorted by most columns in any direction. With the TTmod installed, it takes advantage of the statistics tracker which was implemented when the Livemap 2.0 released. It shows the ‘last seen’ timestamp and the total playtime of each character. Note that these columns can’t be displayed on servers without the mod installed, as these information are not present in the database by default.
On the bottom of the page you have the option to apply a bulk action to all selected characters, such as deletion, disable/ban or alignment change. Combined with the sorting, filters and table expanding (up to 400 records per page) this is a pretty powerful feature for older servers who struggle with all the good names being taken by inactive players. You could simply delete everyone who hasn’t logged in for x months or something like that.
This feature is nowhere near complete. You can expect more functions in future updates.
RCON permissions
All RCON users should note that the permission option has been separated in two levels. The basic access level will give access to player messaging / kick and ban functions. The advanced level provides access to function triggering and command executions. Check your group permissions after the update.
Updating from 2.0.0 or newer:
Just replace all files with the new ones. You may omit the “map” folder and the config-dedicated.php file.
Updating from 1.2.4 or older:
Uninstall/delete the old livemap, then perform a clean installation of the new livemap.

When switching between cards, the session is not reset!
Session did reset, but apparently it was possible to load one page/request before the reset. Fixed that. Thanks for pointing that out.
This is great
Looking for a perfectly flat map. No features or anything. Just a large area to build. Any suggestions on finding a map like that?
A new “Helper” group was created on the server map 1 and 2. Passwords are different. But you can go to both under one. Video – youtu.be/MpdS0C-ILUw
Right now it’s not possible host multiple maps on the same domain. Use a different (sub-)domain for the 2nd map.
I installed maps on different subdomains 1.map.com and 2.map.com. Same thing 🙁
