-The site map is the most detailed mode available. In other words, its tiles do not represent a larger number of tiles in another map, even though an individual tile may contain several objects and/or {{L|creatures}} stacked on top of one another.
+The site map is the most detailed mode available. In other words, its tiles do not represent a larger number of tiles in another map, even though an individual tile may contain several objects and/or {{L|creature}}s stacked on top of one another.
 The exact size of the tiles is not defined and the flexible physics of the game make it difficult to pin down any size. However, it should be noted that each {{L|chair}}, {{L|table}}, {{L|bed}}, or other item of {{L|furniture}} requires a single tile for itself in order to be placed correctly.

-While the travel map allows for quick travel between locations, the site map is actually the location of the main interaction of the game. As such, you can only view your {{L|inventory}} or interact with it while in site map mode. In addition, {{L|creature}} {{L|encounter}}s also only take place on site maps; if you come across a {{L|creature}} while travelling, you will have to switch into site map mode (by pressing {{k|>}}) - if it is not a random {{L|encounter}}, in which case you will automatically be forced into site map mode.

 As was noted above, the character will grow {{L|Adventurer mode#Basic Needs|hungry}} and {{L|Adventurer mode#Basic Needs|thirsty}} while on a site map. However, site maps are the only location where you actually can obtain {{L|Adventurer mode#Basic Needs|food}} and {{L|Adventurer mode#Basic Needs|water}} as the travel map does not offer interaction with any game objects.
