Map files are binary files that contain image data for the player's map in the game [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7_Days_to_Die 7 Days to Die].

==Format==
The map data stored is only what the player has explored so far. The file contains tile segments, each being 16x16 tiles. Each tile has color data attached to it.

<pre>
char[4] header
uint32 version
uint32 number_of_segments

struct coordinates[number_of_segments]
int16 x
int16 y

seek 524300

struct tile_segments[number_of_segments]
struct rows[16]
struct tiles[16]
uint16 tile_color_data
</pre>

Each tiles color on the map is represented by a 16 bit number where each color is 5 bits and the MSB is meaningless:

<pre>
MSB LSB
0001000101000101
| r || g || b |
32 80 40
</pre>
