Add position of hexagon and real region name

[Metylene]

Hello !
With the API we can create the map of each region but can't know the arrangement of the regions.
Can you add in /worldconquest/maps/:mapName/static the row and column position for each hexagon ?

I'm thinking something like that :
"position" : [ x, y ]

In the same time, adding also "name" to have the new real name of the region ? (i.e. "The Moors" for "MooringCounty" ; "The Linn of Mercy" for "LinnMercy" ; all names with an apostrophe)

Oh i forgot Phil on discord said :

If anything, it'd just be some data that exists in the github repository as transmitting something that will never change is inefficient

So maybe not directly in the API but somewhere at least so we don't have to hardcode each region position

Yeah so I agree it would not be necessary to put it in an end point, but a readme or json in the github would be find, just a standardized way to go from region based coords to global coords. this would require definition of map locations relative to world center.

Here is mine
JSON (can ignore id, that is just mine internally) - also grid x/y is from world top left
