      In case this wasn’t sarcastic, the map doesn’t wrap North to South like in Asteroids, it only wraps East to West, like Pac-Man.

          In case of the most common map, Mercator projection, if you go exactly due Norf you’ll come out from the top of the map, facing due Souf, 180° of longitude (Eaft or Weft, doesn’t matter) away.
