Went through the entire program but x,y is not being scraped, all shows up a blank,blank (blank just being an empty spot).

a lot of data for the items is scraped from XIVDB using their APi and then added to the data file I create for the app. However, XIVDB does not contain some data like location, so these have to be manually entered by me into the data file. It's incomplete at the moment as I'm still collecting data, so some will show blank. It was added before completion due to many request by people to put it in.

However at this time, I'm currently unable to work on the app or the data due to some real life issues and time at my job, so updates are kind of halted at the moment. I hate saying that, but I have to be honest. I posted about this on the discerning eye subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/discerningeye/comments/4n6mev/current_state_of_things/

Well, I know Garland database has a little map with coordinates and even something that shows what kind of buffs will be on the nodes as well. I think they have an API, i'm not totally sure though but it might be something to look into. Else manual adding nodes spawns or possible node spawns for the major nodes isn't that much work since I know they are documented, i've been seeing them posted before, its not like its thousands of nodes :stuck_out_tongue:

I read about your real life issues already, do hope everything's alright, but figured I'd post things anyway for when you got back :)
