Improvements

  • Main page and gallery now load much more quickly
  • Fixed problem where extremely large, detailed maps would sometimes not load on mobile, or would only load partially
  • New feature: added a guide to assist in drawing straight lines. When the guide is enabled, straight lines can be drawn from the point of origin. Disable the guide to draw freehand. This should help reduce mistakes.
  • New feature: keyboard shortcuts are now available for the most commonly used tools, including the first 10 rail line colors, enabling/disabling the guide, adding/editing a station, eraser, zoom in/out, and moving the map. See the tooltips for all keyboard shortcuts.
  • New feature: undo a recent mistake by pressing Control+Z
  • New feature: you can now stretch a smaller map to make it into a larger map by adding more space between stations, allowing you to add more stations. Stretch map is in the Resize Map menu, and only works on maps that are 80x80 or 120x120.
  • Several minor bugfixes, like ensuring tooltips were always oriented in the correct direction when resizing the window
  • Maps will save more quickly now when clicking Save and Share map

Behind-the-scenes improvements

  • Added caching to speed up every page load on the server side
  • Improve page speed by removing unused CSS and JS assets from main page and gallery
  • Added new pages to the admin to help me review maps more quickly to determine what should be included in the gallery
