Drawn map is described by a list of points, which define polylines to draw and format of each polyline.

Point is defined as
|
|
|
15 |
|| Big-endian int16 || Big-endian int16 || Byte ||
|
|
|
16 |
|| *X* coordinate || *Y* coordinate || *flags* ||
|
|
|
17 |
|
|
|
18 |
where *flags* are:
|
|
|
19 |
|| 8th bit || 7th bit || 6th-1st bits ||
|
|

|
20 |
|| if set, this is a first point of polyline || if set, polyline is erasing || *width* (thickness) of line ||
|
|

|
|

… where *width* defines `(width * 10) + 6` pixels width line to draw.
|
|
226
|

|
|
1222
|

Second and further points of polyline have 8th bit of *flags* unset, the content of others are ignored for those.
