Can anyone answer the following vital questions that keep me up nights?

1. How long until a prim shows up on the Big Map?
2. What is the minimum visible size?
3. Is there a maximum/minimum height or a prim type (phantom, locked, etc) that does NOT show up?

Thanks!! :cool:

1) In theory its updated every night I believe, around midnight. In practice, it seems to update every few days.
2) A map image is 256x256 pixels, so minimum viewable price is 1 to 2m
3) Last I heard the map image was taken from 384m. And even semi transparent images show on the map.
