A Revamp of the Overall Zafaria Map

This was something I noticed today while I was trying to make my way through Zafaria after I've finished the world (needed a trainer). While most world maps are pretty detailed, and you can tell which hub will lead you to which zone--such as Digmoore Station shows that it branches off to Chelsea Court, Kensington, etc. and so on. With Zafaria, this isn't the case, and it's quite confusing!

While the artwork for the overall Zafaria map is brilliant, as all the other artwork is, it isn't very helpful to the player for navigation.

Have any other players run into maps like this, where the map just.. isn't a helpful map?

And game devs--you know what I'm requesting.

I agree it can be very confusing. Celestia is another prime example and there are other similar situations in most of the other worlds too. I've often thought it would be handy if we could have an override function on the direction-finder that would allow us to just indicate the area we want to go to instead of having to rely on a mission arrow. The "N" key feature is helpful but only if you're in an area adjacent to where you want to go.

Zafaria desperately needs a teleport from Baobab Crossroads to Drum Jungle, ideally in the back so it could also cover Elephant Graveyard. That's such a long run now, and requires multiple boat rides. It would only be unlocked after you have access to the area of course. I'd put it by Umlilo Sunchaser, unlocked when you get to that part of the story.
