Hmm, but I don't want to do any downloading of page from geocaching.com and searching for spoilers image. Are they really so important?? I have never used them ...
#13607
Yes, it's exactly as I wrote. Initializing takes too much time. It have to be done with some help of external file.

You have initializing maps every start? That means that you have any file in maps directory that have some problem with initializing. You have file in maps directory but missing in list of offline maps! Check it ...

and thanks for tests! This show that whole system works fine only needs some small improvements. Fine fine ...

Hmm I just tested one cache as you wrote .... GC12THR

When I browse through source code, there is this image
http://img.geocaching.com/cache/532bf52 ... 1219f6.jpg

is this spoiler you talk about?

But when I download GPX file (attached to my post) there is no link to this image ...

any tip for this?

Hi,
  hmm excellent! What do you exactly need to know?

I just object that hold list of database files sorted by filename (just in Arraylist). When request for any tile come, I'm doing through all files and check if this tile is in database.

When second request on tile come, I then check firstly the last used database file. If nothing there, then I go as in first case, from first to last (except the one already tested).

So question is, what is the best separate algorithm right? There is not much big problem count of files. Best for performance will be if whole zoom will be in same file. You should create some simple solution as

  • create first file
  • count files for first zoom and put them into file
  • count files for second zoom, if small enough to put into first, add. Otherwise create second file
  • and so on. There should be of course any problems ...

When zoom level is bigger then 2GB, then you should separate it into more then one file also by any algorithm. If only to two parts, it's simple. If more, this should be interesting ... :)

And last think. Initializing of 2GB SQLite db file (just executing query "select distinct z from tiles") takes on android cca 3 minutes!! It will be good to on the end, create some txt file with zoom values in every file. Best will be for every file, same file with "txt" ending, that contain numbers separate by comma with zoom values. Initializing of this map will then be incredibly fast ...

uff, long story from me. Ask whatever you need. I hope you understand whole concept, how Locus handle these maps. I expect then this will not change in future. Looks fast enough ...

Eh you are right, I'm just testing recording during my way to dentist and after last update I absolutely ignore all settings for recording. Nice ... :)
#13611
I know I don't have to, but I want :)

Anyway, I received no message on crowdin. Better to send these thing by email. And you translated text on market page? If so, I should add it there immediately. I'll upload new texts on crowdin later, because there is need for some track record fixs and probably for some new settings ...

Free chat / forum addons
March 02, 2011, 00:07:16
Hi guys,
  I have changed graphics style of forum into default PHP BB3 style. I wanted to add some addons and old one do not support this.

So I added ability to set topic as "Solved" into all categories Troubles & Questions. So please use this if you're satisfied with actual final progress of your topic.

Also into categories Wishlist and Troubles & Questions is now added ability to rate topic. Try to rate topics, that are important for you (or that have no sence for you by low rating value). I'll try to implements more required features first!

Any more tips how to improve work with forum? Discussion is welcome ...

Troubles & Questions / Re: sort order for tracks
March 01, 2011, 23:31:05
yes, sorting is updated but exporting multiple tracks at once still not. I'll probably do some dialog when you click on Export button on main data screen.

somethink like "Export selected tracks", "Export points" ...
#13614
Ok, fine that actual solution helps a little.

Your second suggestion leads to complete rewrite style of Offline checkbox in map settings. This button actually works only on map tiles and you want to apply almost on all thinks? Searchin of adres when "Move to" map, downloading geocaching data (images) in listing ... and maybe more ...

I don't know, maybe? ... :)
#13615
Hmm, spoilers images are images at bottom of cache page? Are these links (to spoiler images) also in gpx Pocket Query file? I have to check this ...
#13616
done
#13617
hi ht81,
 be patient :)

about your requests ...
spoilers - I have to really look at it because I know nothing about it ...
projection of point - this will surely be added into Locus. I was thinking about it a few months ago. I'll add this together with some averaging system for geocachers ...
#13618
yes I see, you're correct ....
#13619
yes, that's correct. It's same with UTM coordinates. Request was "only" on "Move on position" :) Second part should be done later ...

torayoko:
 it's thanks to you, not me. You translated whole Locus after one day!! Great, so I thank you ;) What name I should write into app as "Korean translator"? I want to add some small thanks section into application info dialog.

superscout:
  it's really weird. Locus have to be now supported for all countries and all screen resolutions. hmm ... so I'm sending actual version on your email ...
