Hello.

It is very difficult to say what wrong using small piece of code, without any error messages, etc.
Please describe your problem in detail.
If possible, please send your project to support (support@infinity-code.com).
We will check this and give you advice how to fix it.

sorry here is the code that generates the marker. its basically the replacement of the GenerateMarkers() function in the example given.

if (x.Status == AzureServicesForUnity.CallBackResult.Success)
{
    foreach (var userDataObj in x.Result.results)
    {
        //Debug.Log(string.Format("ID is {0},score is {1}", item.id, item.hwsh_user_popular ));
        marker = map.AddMarker(new Vector2(userDataObj.hwsh_user_loc_geox, userDataObj.hwsh_user_loc_geoy), null, userDataObj.fb_user_name);
        // Create new XML and store it in customData.
        OnlineMapsXML customXML = new OnlineMapsXML("MarkerData");
        customXML.Create("UserName", userDataObj.fb_user_name);
        customXML.Create("UserFBID", userDataObj.fb_user_id);
        customXML.Create("UserDBID", userDataObj.id);
        customXML.Create("PostID", userDataObj.fb_user_post_id);
        customXML.Create("UserPopularity", userDataObj.hwsh_user_popular);
        customXML.Create("UserRank", myRank);
        marker.customData = customXML;
        MakeToolTips();


        marker.Init();
        int my = (int) (( userDataObj.hwsh_user_loc_geoy + 90) / 10); ///lat
        int mx = (int) (( userDataObj.hwsh_user_loc_geox + 180) / 10); //long

        int index = mx * 18 + my;

        if (markers[index] == null) markers[index] = new List(32);
        else if (markers[index].Count == markers[index].Capacity) markers[index].Capacity += 32;
        markers[index].Add(marker);

        TotalX += 1;
        myRank += 1;
    }
    if (includeTotalCount)
    {
        Debug.Log(string.Format("Brought {0} rows out of {1}", TotalX, x.Result.count));
    }
    else
    {
        Debug.Log(string.Format("Brought {0} rows", x.Result.results.Count()));
    }
}

Hey Alex

The script works perfectly if one uses it with the old GUI label tooltip method. but for some reason trying to implement it with this method uGUICustomTooltipOnClick.cs http://forum.infinity-code.com/viewtopic.php?id=122 I'm having major issues.

can you please assist?

Hello.

Modify line 86:
if (markers[cx + y] != null) ms.AddRange(markers[cx + y]);

Yo Alex

Finally tested with your recommend settings and it works perfectly, except for one thing. when i change the count to another number except for 1 million, like 3. i receive the following errors:

ArgumentNullException: Argument cannot be null.
Parameter name: collection
System.Collections.Generic.List`1[OnlineMapsMarker].CheckCollection (IEnumerable`1 collection) (at /Users/builduser/buildslave/mono/build/mcs/class/corlib/System.Collections.Generic/List.cs:435)
System.Collections.Generic.List`1[OnlineMapsMarker].AddRange (IEnumerable`1 collection) (at /Users/builduser/buildslave/mono/build/mcs/class/corlib/System.Collections.Generic/List.cs:136)
OneMillionMarkers.UpdateMarkers () (at Assets/OneMillionMarkers.cs:86)
OneMillionMarkers.Start () (at Assets/OneMillionMarkers.cs:59)

The issue here is that we won't have a million markers right at the launch of our app. instead they will build up to a million. meaning as our app installs increase so will our marker count. How can we fix this?

could i also maybe ask for comments on the code as I'm finding it difficult to understand whats happening.

Kind Regards

ok cool, i thought i would have to go that approach if it is only in 3d. all good i will start working on the new solution. thanks for putting up with all my question.

kind regards

No, it's two different modes. You can not combine it.

Tileset much faster and has many additional features.
«Drawing to texture» - is a universal mode. You can show the map anywhere (almost).

If you configure the scene and the camera, Tileset can look like UIImage.

sorry do you have a tutorial on how to set up a UIIImage with tileset because when adding the tiles controller nothing happens. I've connected the camera but i think its trying to access the renderer which a uiImage doesn't have. or is it only available for 3d maps?

You are using an incorrect control.
For "target - tileset" you need to use a tileset control.

sorry alex i just updated to the latest beta and when converting the uiimage/map from texture to tile set produces a umber of errors
