Hossin Facility names and PTS live updates

James Moore 10 years ago updated by Jake Wilson (Lead Developer) 9 years ago 1
We  currently know all of the Hossin facility names and the Lattice links for the central facilities so could we not put the names on so it can still use it as quick reference for talking about Hossin.

Ok you wanted feedback, here it is

st0mpy 8 years ago updated 8 years ago 2

You put a feedback tab, I hope you dont hate me, this is my feedback.


First off, on the individual maps the zoom is way too harsh!! One single notch of my scrollwheel goes from max zoom out to much too zoomed in, I can do the whole range in 3 notches. Even the on screen zoom button to click jumps from max out to max in in 4. This makes it impossible to control and centre how I want, to the point of not being useful for leading (and im talking about this on a 24" 1920x1200 second screen, not some small old 17" or something). Its either way too zoomed out or way too zoomed in. I want to exactly fill my screen so the borders of the map are *just over each edge and with massive zoom steps I cant even trick it into aligning where I want it to be. It needs way more than 3-4 scroll steps or its near to unusable as a command tool, ill either miss action being zoomed in or miss action being zoomed out and if I cant take the info I need in a glance, having to mess about with zoom levels each time then I might as well use "M".


Second, the arrangement on the page of the map vs. data is unhelpful. Even on a big screen having more than 3 lines at the bottom starts to obscure the rest of what map I can see. Since most screens are wider in length these days and the maps are pretty squarish, anything put at the bottom steals area from the map itself, yet the whole side of the screen is virgin! Untouched! Why is the data feed not down the side, like a twitch chat, that way we could see 50-100 events and still zoom the map to fit fully top and bottom screen. Usability ++!!


Lastly, more of a request but from a small problem, Ive used Enemy Heat on my main map for so long the three-colour map is horrible looking. Any chance you can make a skin with the grim dull Enemy Heat colours and stick it in settings for us old jaded vets please? xD


That is my feedback, I hope you liked it :) Thanks for the support, and the service!! Even without being able to use individual maps its been super useful having the 4 servers I have accounts on open tabs so I can click through and see which one has Indar locked, but now ive used that I can see these other things when trying to use the rest of the site.



Cheers!!

Territory percent of map control info.

Greg Burns 10 years ago 0
 For example Everett Supply Co. is 1% and Eli Barracks Complex is 2%. This info would be good for the capture content alerts.

You mentioned pushing this onto GitHub back in February. Just curious if that is still the plan?

uamadman 10 years ago updated 10 years ago 1
Currently ps2maps loads into the Twiddla whiteboard with a black screen. Does anyone have any suggestions to get around the incompatibility? or am i faced with writing a python script to pull an image every 2 minutes? 

Any additional information, limitations or ideas are welcome.

When can we expect the Live Map Drawing Feature to be added?

David Cavitt 11 years ago updated by Jake Wilson (Lead Developer) 11 years ago 0

As you all are aware this feature is in Planetside 1 and is extremely useful and our outfit was wondering when you all are planning on putting this feature into the game?  Do you all have a timeline when we can expect it?  

Answer

Sometime in the near future.  Working actively on this and adding in the lattice right now.  This is one of the biggest and most technically challenging parts of the website to get right.

Map update frequency

Mame A 10 years ago updated by Jake Wilson (Lead Developer) 9 years ago 3
The map was very outdated.  I refreshed an all, was enough change that it looked like it wasn't updated in a good 10 minutes minimum.

Would be awesome if you would update more frequently as well as showing if they are getting attacked/captured or what not.

Do the above, then I will be using this every time I play the game :)  Till then, not being updated is very useless as a tool to ever be used by myself anyways.

Adding a notification/beep when one of your territories are being captured would make this tool worth paying for even!  Squad leaders could sit back and fight, if some ghost cappers come out, you would then be able to hear a beep and check the map to see what is being taken and might need your attention.

Ability to Toggle Facility Names separate from facility icons

Degen Atron 9 years ago updated by Jake Wilson (Lead Developer) 9 years ago 1
A check-box for Facility Names in the Filters List would only turn the names off would be nice.
