Hello, When I am visualizing the results of the Nextstrain run through `nextstrain view` command, I do not see the continents to be drawn on the map (screenshot attached). I do not have the same problem if I just drag the json file to the auspice server manually. Is it a bug or perhaps I am doing something wrong? Thank you.

Try accessing `nextstrain view` over `localhost` instead of your internal network address, e.g. [http://localhost:4000/ncov/emoryCovFeb?p=grid](http://localhost:4000/ncov/emoryCovFeb?p=grid). The default map style shows base map tiles from MapBox using a hardcoded access token linked to Nextstrain’s MapBox account. This token is only valid for `localhost` so it can’t be used for other purposes. I think you’re missing the tiles because you’re accessing your `nextstrain view` via a non-localhost address.
