Support the project

scummy_map is free and ad-free. If it’s useful to you, a coffee helps keep it running.

First-party data pipeline

All map tiles (Regular, Climate, Elevation) and POI coordinates are now produced from a first-party pipeline that reads SCUM’s level files directly:

  • apps/extractor β€” .NET 8 + CUE4Parse walks every umap and dumps actor placements + the world heightmap and biome / settlement / water masks.
  • apps/tiler β€” Python + Pillow composes the masks into three layers (default colored aerial, biome-tinted climate, hypsometric elevation) and slices them into the SCUM tile pyramid.
  • scripts/extract-pois-from-umaps.mjs β€” filters the actor dump against a curated whitelist and loads the matching points into Postgres.

The earlier scrape from scum-map.com was retired on 2026-05-04 once the first-party pipeline shipped. Their volunteer community helped bootstrap this project β€” thank you.

Font Awesome

POI category badges and many UI glyphs are rendered server-side from Font Awesome Free (solid set), licensed CC BY 4.0. The icon SVGs are the property of Font Awesome; only our editorial choice of which glyph represents which category is project-specific.

First-party (this project)

  • The web app, API, Discord bot, and Tauri overlay (full stack)
  • The .pak extractor + Python tiler + POI ingest pipeline (above)
  • The wordmark, favicon, PWA icons, custom marker icons, and Tauri overlay icons
  • Sector grid + keypad subgrid renderer, route planner, custom-zone editor
  • Multi-tenant maps, marker visibility (private / squad / public), squads

Community contributors

Folks from the Discord whose bug reports and ideas have shaped the project. Thank you.

  • Sleepyyeit β€” many overlay and POI bug reports across the v0.4.x and v0.5.x dev cycles, including the POI category regressions and overlay menu / recenter UX feedback.
  • Testament β€” suggested the Ctrl/⌘+click focuses on a sector shortcut on the web map. Pre-empts every other click handler so it works as a universal navigation gesture.
  • ComoAP β€” surfaced the missing squad ID + add-member flow on the squad detail page, then followed up suggesting squad rename and delete. All three shipped 2026-05-07.
  • Zilla β€” proposed Streamer Mode: a one-click anti-stream-snipe mask covering Steam username, server name, self-pin, squadmate positions, auto-pin events, and downstream PII surfaces. Shipped in overlay v0.5.16.
