This does not really help. You would need to state specifically what you do not like.

Re: New Galactic Map!!

is there a way that you could add page up,left,right,down option, maybe using keys or buttons on the map, the map freezes when i try to drag it and something like this could drasticlly reduce that

Re: New Galactic Map!!

IC's malevolent one has spoken!

If you have an improvement idea or problem, be specific and it can be fixed/looked at more quickly.

I hated this guy at the start, however, I played a round in PW with him where he went as an anonymous player. Our fam got smashed up and everyone pretty much left. Arby stayed around and helped out the remaining family. At the end of the round he revealed himself.... My views on him have changed since. Your a good guy.....

The improvement idea is to get rid of it.

Re: New Galactic Map!!

Can you slow the zoom with a wheel mouse setting some? I scroll a little and the lag between me scrolling and the map zooming is enough to make me try to zoom again and then im zoomed way out.

I like how we can just click on the system and it shows all the planets and their owner/bonuses but if you click on an owned planet there is no option to send that planet's owner a message. Can you make the family number linkable to the family page? so we can check the family? I know i can just type it in or check the rankings page for the family but it's an additional step and isn't necessary with the old map.

Will there be a way to open multiple systems at once? Like how we opened the systems with seperate tabs on the old map? Or should i just stick to the old map for that?

Now that I've gotten to use the new map on my laptop it's not half bad smile A few more tweaks/improvements and it will be pretty nice. For many years i wished there was a more online/multi PC/mobile version of the mapgen so i wouldn't have to install it on any PC i was using IC with. This looks like it's making good headway towards that smile

Re: New Galactic Map!!

I think its pretty awful considering how good it could be. 

its too slow, its too small, its not accurate.

it needs to be more compatible like map gen. 

clicking systems needs to be easier, the zoom sucks, moving around the gal sucks.

if you have a small screen you can only see the first 19 planets. 

please fix this bs, don't bring out a new idea which is so completely fail, at least make it semi decent before throwing this crap on us.

What resolution are you using? On my 1440x900 laptop I can see all planets.

Re: New Galactic Map!!

when you clik on blank map it just opens the closest system, makes no sense when you just click to move the map

also, please consider about changing the current graphics in the systems for simple dots like in the mapgen, and link the system watch to the old view, those tables look horrible

Re: New Galactic Map!!

also when you change the size with the mousewheel you lose the focus, it should be focused on your HS by default (or add an option to set the focus where you want).  Its very annoying to use the mousewheel and then lose what you were watching, then clik to move the map where you wanted and it opens a system. IT is simply useless right now, please improve it or get rid of it.

Re: New Galactic Map!!

ouch I found another 'to do' thing, the map does not autosave the status, you have your systems selected but you go to consult your council (or another stuff) and then you go back to the map and there's nothing selected sad

It should autosave the status ... at least the time you are logged in (and maybe you can save the status bfore login out, then a reminder should be vital)

Re: New Galactic Map!!

when you selekt and enemy planet, you have the option to link to his fam but not to the empire

"This planet is owned by Pepito of (7990)."

the link in Pepito does not eksist
the link in 7990 takes you to your own family view, not the family suposedly linked.

Re: New Galactic Map!!

to view a system enable a double click to view system, then when dragging the map around it wont pop up with random systems u "dont want" to see.

like render said also, the map dont save what ur viewing, so when u attack or make an op and press back it resets the map to defualt, really really annoying. (and or make it so when u click to attack or spec op a planet, it opens in the window ur viewing the system instead of loading a whole new page, this its self would stop the map resetting as u wouldnt have to then click back tongue )
fix those 2 things and it will look nice.

Also small bug when in simple mode all systems show as white balls, when u de-select simple mode, those systems dissapear forcing u to refresh the page.

Re: New Galactic Map!!

there is a major problem with the coords, your mouse pointer is above 1 system but the coords showed dont belong to that system, this happens when zooming out, the info about the coords does not zoom and gets stucked in low resolution only.

also when you want to create a systems list, it's suposed you have to click over the systems you want to include in the list, but you somehow need the big view, the whole map, and no matter you click on those system, because the map is selecting other systems completely different.

Then its nearly impossible to do lists, because you have to be in low resolution and you need to move the map, so when you move it, the map selects random systems again, that you cannot deselect by clicking on them, because other random systems are selected instead, even on blank map,...
