The Atlas of Worlds:
The Atlas of Worlds lets you track your progression through Path of Exile's map endgame. You can also use it to upgrade maps and add mods to the Atlas. It indicates which maps are connected to each other.
The map drop rules have been changed so that connected maps and maps you've previously completed can drop from the area you're playing. As you progress towards the center of the Atlas from the four corners, the tier of maps increases.
There are four tier 16 maps that contain the Guardians of the Void. As you defeat them, you'll earn fragments of a key that allows you to challenge the Shaper himself.
As you complete more types of maps, you unlock a cumulative map tier bonus that is displayed on the Atlas.
You can upgrade white or yellow maps by five tiers using a Shaper's Orb, which can be earned by completing bonus objectives on specific maps.
You can add temporary mods to the Atlas itself using Cartographer's Sextants.
Your progress, upgrades and mods on the Atlas of Worlds are shared b

;1 ) H = HayStack. The "Source Text"
;2 ) BS = BeginStr. Pass a String that will result at the left extreme of Resultant String
;3 ) BO = BeginOffset. 
; Number of Characters to omit from the left extreme of "Source Text" while searching for BeginStr
; Pass a 0 to search in reverse ( from right-to-left ) in "Source Text"
; If you intend to call StrX() from a Loop, pass the same variable used as 8th Parameter, which will simplify the parsing process.

• Note on Java exceptions: One sure way to help in easily understanding problems is to have a well designed exception mechanism. You do not want generic exceptions like RuntimeException. You do not want badly wrapped exceptions - I've seen a string manipulation method that throws HttpInternalServerException. Ideally you need an exception stack trace that provides you context and a consistent way of reading them. And most important of all, you do not want exceptions getting lost somewhere. A big problem with a codebase that is already using badly designed exception is that it can be a risky change since it will probabably affect most of the existing code - imagine an exception class that is written in an xml config.
