Exactly!

I worry bout the complexity and that's why I try to get helps from available map frameworks (like urs)

Anyway, have already marked ur asset and will purchase it once the $ is right for my budget

Do you think KML it is magic wand that can make the client-server game, without the server side?
I do not want to disappoint you, but it's just XML. No more, no less.

To make the multiplayer you need to use Photon, Smartfox or any other multiplayer framework.
You can try to implement the server side by himself.
But do it right and safely is a pretty difficult.
So I recommend you to use some framework.

Yes, I am unity developer but mostly use playmaker.
Also to create map related game, I studied google map and posted my queries in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4175 … rby-marker

After that I found your asset and wonder how come the approach so different as ppl mentioned
Display custom map - KML/KMZ
Show custom market - using fusion table

My worry is purchase the wrong product

You know that Online Maps is a mapping solution for Unity?
If yes, you have experience of working with Unity?

You can create markers using the inspector or using Online Maps API.

#1, #2, then how can I display nearby custom marker? There should be admin page or backoffice to upload/edit markers.

1. Online Maps does not support KML, because it is a big standard, a pretty big part of features of which is not related to maps. Implement partial support for KML, we think this is wrong.

2. No, Online Maps does not use Fushion.

3. By default markers are not clickable.

4. Google API Key is not used in requests for downloading tiles. The key is only used in requests to Google Maps Webservices (Places, Geocoding, Directions, etc.).

I studied some google articles,

- How can i show my *.KML map (monster map), also they mentioned the best would display custom market through Google Fushion Table.
- Does the plugin using Fushion? if Yes, HOW to do the magic in this asset?
- How can i make the marker not click-able (if one player clicked on it)

also, it doesn't show a place for us to put in our API key

Hello.

1. Yes, you can create your own map with monsters.

2. Yes, you can have the user generated content.
But all client-server interaction you need to implement.
