Map tiles endpoint #14

Open Maelstromeous opened 3 years ago

Maelstromeous commented 3 years ago

Currently the community has to scape map tiles out of the game's assets in order to generate LODs required for rendering map tiles. As of recent years since transition to .pak2 files, this has become obsecenly difficult.

We would like to see an endpoint (similar to the item images assets) which exposes each map at various LODs. This should be possible already as the game has approx 3 LODs as part of it's map, it should just be a matter of exporting those and exposing via the API.

There will need to be some sort of process added when the map gets update to export the new tiles, or this would get out of date rather quickly.
