+# Alternative Map Key
+
+This mod replaces most of the symbols used for ASCII overmap keys. This has no effect on the large overmap screen when using overmap tiles (tiles enabled by default). 
+It will still replace the symbols used in the overmap in your sidebar.  
+
+## General Guidelines
+Land features are symbols. They're in big chunks so you don't really need a letter to tell you what each space is. 
+For the same reason, houses are left as they were.  
+
+Buildings will be represented by the first letter of their name. P for Pizza not Parlor. 
+
+### Single Tile Buildings
+Letters are all lower case.  
+Colors are non-inverted.
+
+### Multi Tile Buildings
+The road connection or entrance is marked with a capital letter.  
+Colors are inverted. 
+
+### Colors
+Colors mark the (loose) thematic category, with some compromises between the building's original purpose and its current lootability. 
+
+- Blue - Service and Entertainment. (low loot.) 
+  - Laundromats, gyms, arcade, football field, radio, movie theaters, amusement parks, spas, hair salons, etc
