Upon reaching {{SkillReq|Cartography|100}}, you want to manually Survey towards the East wall of the map then upwards, leaving the last hex so you can start Auto Surveying without moving. Ideally you want to be active here so you can immediately move when {{POIIcon|The Edge of Darkness}} at (31, 0) is fully surveyed so you don't have to move to start Auto Surveying again. This will unlock the Shop Purchase, {{UpgradeIcon|Cartographer's Knowledge}} for {{GP|50000000}}. Traveling to this hex will also cost somewhere around 50m GP. | Upon reaching {{SkillReq|Cartography|100}}, you want to manually Survey towards the East wall of the map then upwards, leaving the last hex so you can start Auto Surveying without moving.
