I have also been wondering this.

I have also also been wondering this.

Looking at the comments stream, author replies "Maps are necessary for the Stash houses, if you don't want them to spawn you can disable that in sandbox".

Does this mean that the stash houses cannot spawn unless there's a corresponding map item?

Can't seem to find where the maps are trying to lead me >_<
A mark or an X would be useful

The person who wrote the map didn't know, you need to find this yourself. Maps with annotation mean the stash can be found, maps with no annotations are just regular objects.

This is silly. Give me annotation or nothing at all. Great mod otherwise:)

It's same as vanilla behaviour.

Why even drop non-annotated maps at all then? Too much clutter. What's the point?!

Same issue. My maps show the same area and never annotated. is this actually what it is supposed to do or...?

It seems so. It's like finding a map of "Rosewood" vs. finding an "Annotated Map" that happens to mark a place in Rosewood.

Personally, I kind of like the non-annotated maps. I treat them like a mini-quest, they show a location that should have some solar panel items and I then mount an expedition to locate and recover them.
The last expedition took me to Valley Station from my safehouse near Muldraugh and it took about three days to accomplish. I holed up in a warehouse and ranged around the area and eventually found some batteries and a solar panel part.

Its the warehouses near Riverside, you can find several solar panel pieces in the area.

On this latest game, I've found three different maps, Rosewood, Scenic Grove and Louisville
Anybody found other locations than these three?
I think in my last run through I found one for Valley Station (hence my previous comment) but I'm not certain of that - I might have found the parts when I was on my way to loot the metal drums (for water collection)
