If we could search for players residences on the live map, it would be amazing. That way we could, say, search for a friends place and see what the nearest open residence is. The live map is great already, why not make it better?
Live map has list of member online who aren't in /map hide to the right of the screen. As for searching for res just do "/v sassysmooch" and if on wrong server it will tell you automatically also tell you which one it is on.
You can teleport to your friend's res, and see yourself on the live map. Then look around where you are
