Hello everyone!

I'm Celnus#0000, I manage the fansite Club Mice and as a representative of the page I would like to make a suggestion:

Since the opening of the page, users have constantly asked me for a maps API. The problem is that the method to extract information from each map is very slow and inefficient (you have to load each map to extract information, such as code, author and XML code). Knowing that there are more than 7 million maps, and that loading the information of each map takes approximately 5 seconds, it would take about 400 days (more than a year) to load all the maps. Also keep in mind that players update their maps, then it would take another year for this map to be updated in the API.

Club Mice has access to the Transformice API, which offers statistics for users, but not for maps. My suggestion is that Transformice include a table in the API where the information of each Transformice map is displayed.

I have no knowledge in what goes into making an API for a map database of this size but I would love to see fansites taking advantage of this more often since there is no reliable database currently out there. Full support.
