Where the heck is Hideaway?

[Cheetodexter]

I've explored pretty much the entire Zee and can not for the life of me find Hideaway. Rather than me combing every single square I've missed, can anyone tell me which segment of the map it's in?

[txh0881]

It is very far to the East, along the right edge of the map.

Its hidden away (shockingly). And, suprise! SS has always had random map generation. Search all the tiles along the north and east edge

North East of the shining isle, where you may just lose your mind.

No it isn't. The map is randomly generated. And I'm not sure thats even an actaul location in Sunless Sea come to think of it

Ahh, thanks.

What an incredibly unhelpful answer. The map in SS isn't totally randomly generated, the map is divided into a 6x6 grid and islands occupy a random location in their grid square. That's why I asked what segment it was in. Thanks for nothing, clever guy.

The two are so close I might even venture a guess that their spawn points are tied to eachother....

Not even sure how you managed to quote that. I edited my answer within 10 seconds. And I dont think the shining isle is even a location

...it isn't... I thought I made that quite obvious.

Ever notice how people on this forum try to stay in the spirit of the game and give answers that are kind of falvorful and cryptic?


Yea. That. The shining isle isn't capitalized because it's an epithet I came up with. Giving every answer to everyone who asks ruins the game. What if he hasn't come across the island yet? That'd basically ruin the reveal.

I've seen Hideaway to the east of Avid Horizon as well in column three, so clearly there are some ports that aren't restricted in that regard

Really? Wow... strange. I've talked to at least 3 other people who found it in almost the exact same spot I did.

And you deleted your other comment, nice job. Clever's shining island answer isn't meant to be the exact name of the island.

??? I didn't delete anything...

Yeah I was wrong, you just edited it. That's why I deleted mine.

Ah, ok, I get the cyptic answers thing. Might consider that myself.

When I see Hidaway is almost always 2/3rds 3/4 the way down the very right side of the map but on my most recent captain It's up next to Avid horizon. Kind of odd come to think of it, didn't know ports could move around that much

I have consistently found Hideaway just northeast of Aestival.
