Purpose
This template is to allow basic information per location ("block"), with links to adjacent locations.
Keywords
location: The name of the location.
suburb: The suburb where the location is in. This can be a plain text or a link to the suburb page, latter is preferred for navigation.
coordinates: Location's X and Y coordinates on the map.
X_location: This is to name the location in the associated sector (NW, NE, etc). Location can be written as plain text that won't create a link to a page, or with link as follows:
[[Title]]
The location can also be written with a customized page link, where the first argument is the page and the second the displayed name (preferred to common tiles such as parking lots and wastelands):
[[Wasteland (6,1)|Wasteland]]
X_tile: The building tile for the associated sector (NW, NE, etc). This looks for tile keywords from Category:Map Tiles. To call for the tile, remove preceding "Template:" when using the page name as a keyword.
description: free-form text field for added information.
