v3.0.0

[JLyne]

Today's final 3.0.0 release brings Overviewer map support, a searchable marker list in the sidebar and various UI improvments and bug fixes.

Changes since 3.0.0-beta.4

Added

• Added disableMarkerUI index.html option for disabling the new marker list

Misc.

• Updated to latest leaflet

Changes since 2.0.1

Added

• Marker list
  • New sidebar section between maps and players
  • Can be toggled with CTRL + SHIFT + I (m was taken by maps)
  • Initially shows marker sets with marker counts underneath. Clicking a set will list its contents.
  • Dynmap markers will show their label in the list; squaremap/pl3xmap markers will show their tooltip. HTML is stripped.
  • Markers will show their location and icon in the list
    • Point markers will show their exact location, other marker types will show the center of all their points
    • Markers without icons will use a generic icon of their type
  • Markers without a name will show a fallback message defined in index.html, but will still be displayed and can be panned to.
  • The marker list for each marker set has a search bar which will filter the list based on name
  • Clicking a marker in the list will pan to it
    • Point markers will simply pan, but other marker types will also zoom to fit their shape as much as possible
  • Keyboard navigation is fully supported.
    • Arrow keys, home/end and space/enter work as with other lists
    • Backspace whilst inside a marker list will take you back to the marker set list
    • CTRL + F in a marker list will focus the search
  • To avoid performance issues with large sets, only 50 markers will be listed at first
    • A "Show more" button will appear at the bottom to allow displaying further markers
  • Can be disabled with the disableMarkerUI option in index.html
• Overviewer support
  • Most standard features should be fully supported, including: Overlay tilesets, markers, spawn markers, etc
  • Overviewer format URLs are partially supported. Everything except the zoom level will be handled correctly.
  • Due to overviewer config files being JS files, if you have a Content Security Policy you will need to allow unsafe-eval and unsafe-inline for scripts if you have any configured overviewer maps.
  • Modifications to overviewer are unlikely to be supported if they require any frontend changes
    • Additional injected marker scripts are supported if they add markers to the global markersDB or markers objects like the default scripts do
  • The URL location marker is not currently implemented. If this is later implemented it would likely be a toggleable feature for all map types
• Following improvements
  • Following UI now sticks to the bottom of the viewport like in initial LiveAtlas versions
  • Player world and location is now shown when the player is visible
  • Clicking the location will copy it to your clipboard
  • Fixed long names breaking the layout
  • Existing player follows are now cancelled when manually switching worlds
• Sidebar improvements
  • Added tweaked map icons by @Katuend
  • Sidebar section headers and search bars now stick to the top of the viewport when scrolling the sidebar
  • Searching players now scrolls the list back to the top
  • Pressing down arrow on buttons for already expanded sidebar sections will now focus the section
  • Fixed long headings breaking the layout
  • Improved scrolling performance a bit
  • Increased sidebar width slightly to more comfortably fit marker names
• Added disableContextMenu index.html option, to allow disabling the custom map context menu
• Missing index.html messages will now show a fallback message instead of nothing
• Squaremap maps can now be configured with squaremap as well as pl3xmap in index.html
• Added support for Dynmap's new tilescale setting
• Dynmap shape markers with a label will now show a tooltip with the label on hover, matching Pl3xmap behaviour.
• Dynmap point markers will now be centered in the block they are located in, rather than displaying in the top left corner

Fixed

• Fixed sidebar sections attempting to focus themselves repeatedly on initial load if the UI is visible
• Fixed player heads continuing to load for the previous server when switching servers
• Fixed tooltips not updating if a marker updates
• Fixed player image not updating on follow target change
• Fixed point marker icons not updating when they are changed
• Fixed some Squaremap/Pl3xmap markers showing their position as NaN, NaN in the marker list
• Fixed various issues handling Dynmap's append_to_world setting (Map types incorrect for many maps in one world (v3.0.0-beta.1) #345)
• Fixes worlds appearing in the map list if all of their maps are appended to another world
• Fixes multiple maps with the same name replacing each other when appended to the same world
• Fixed incorrect handling of Squaremap/Pl3xmap shape markers, causing some to be incorrectly filled (ChunkyBorder - Red overlay #359)

Misc.

• Improved marker set creation performance
• Many internal changes to marker updating and storage
• Player markers are now only created once per player on a server.
  • This should improve world switching performance slightly at high player counts.
• Player images are now updated if the player image URL changes (i.e switching worlds with different heads_urls)

tt seems that only chunks loaded by players appear on the map? Is it possible to force exposing a given area base on a designated center location?
