Entity Overview Pages
- Combined entity page and sidebar to provide a single unified overview page.
Embedded Maps (work in progress)
- Looked into providing embedded maps on entity overview pages.
- Automatically searches for relevant map features and shows them in a small and filtered embedded map.
- Map search needs to be improved before this feature can be fully released.
- Map search is currently reliant on following directional relationships which doesn't always give an expected result.
- For example:
- Given a relationships where: Map Feature -> Treasure Chest -> Item -> Recipe > Weapon -> Character
- When searching for a character, rather than showing only locations where that character might appear, it will also show all map features for any treasure chests containing an item which is used to craft a weapon for that character. Which is a lot, probably not useful, and can be slow.
- This can be avoided by changing the direction of some relationships, but that can get tricky, tedious and arbitrary.
- It's probably best not to traverse relationships automatically, and instead let people build their own queries.
- An early release of this feature might only use direct relationships. So in the example above, only Treasure Chest pages will show an embedded map.
Interactive Maps
- Newly created maps now default to using coordinates based on the map image's dimensions.
- For example:
- Given a map image where 200 is the largest dimension, such as with 200x100, 100x200, 200x200.
- A coordinate system from bottom-left to top-right of (-100,-100) to (100,100) will be used.
- Where (0,0) is the centre of the image.
- For example:
- Added option to set the coordinate system when creating maps.
- The coordinate system can be changed after map creation by changing the map's "CRS Size" value.
- A map without a "CRS Size" will use Web Mercator.
- Fixed errors when trying to view a map feature which doesn't have a map assigned.
User Interface
- Changed "Complete" icon from a circle (not complete) and circle-with-check (complete) to circle-with-check outlined and filled respectively.
- This is so that the icon can be usable without the accompanying text in smaller places.
- Changed most images to not upscale to fit their container.
- This is to avoid ruining pixel art and to avoid blurry images in general.
- Fixed relationships not showing in the sidebar when a "Drop Rates" column is defined but a value isn't given.
- Fixed data table column headings for relationships overflowing vertically.
- Fixed categories not opening in pop-out sidebars when a category overview page is open.
- Fixed middle-clicking items in the wiki switcher causing empty sidebars to open.
- Reduced layout shifts when loading a change request or discussion page.
- Fixed scrolling and reduced layout shifts when navigating change request lists.
- Fixed stale results when navigating various paginated lists.
- Fixed browser window/tab titles being updated by pop-up sidebars.
- Various other link and navigation fixes.
Thanks for reading.
