Map skill for survival mode

[Sirdoeboy01]

like the title says it would be cool if mapping could be a skill you could level up. you could gain points by mapping locations on the map. As for the skills I was thinking it could affect how far you could map, maybe give a small chance to not use charcoal when you map, and the highest level could give you an in game compass or be able to map even during the night.

Yes, please.  I'm usually in favor of more skills, and this seems like one that could benefit from skill progression and maybe a new orienteering book.

That is a great idea! 

At higher levels you could have a bigger range of mapping, ability to identify the North, maybe you would be able to put some notes on the map like "fallen tree" or "big slope here" to aid you localization.

One thing the devs said is that although they added mapping, the idea of the game was always you being able to identify landmarks: Well, maybe a higher level of mapping skill would aid you in doing exactly that, using the notes I mentioned before

Yeah that would be really good and pretty useful!
