This depends on whether your map file comes to you as XYPLAN.DAT or
XYPLANx.DAT (where x is your race number). If it comes as XYPLANx.DAT,
just put both your map file and your ally's map file into your game
dir, and VPA will read them both. (Do this every turn.)
If it comes as XYPLAN.DAT, you will need to follow Heiko's
instructions above.
Make sure your map.ini file is correct: for XYPLANx.DAT maps, you need
the line
Explore = Yes
in map.ini (but for normal XYPLAN.DAT maps, you don't).
