09Aug11 - Map Changes, other fixes

I posted a petition on this, too, but I'll post it here in case anyone else is experiencing this:

Fixed

I'm disappointed that the performance is still quite poor (perhaps not if I had Vista+ with hardware compositing for browser hardware rendering).  Nevertheless, this is a vast improvement.

I have noticed a couple issues already, and will raise petitions for them.  I repeat them here so you might get fewer duplicates from others:
1) The strategic map doesn't update position as you move around.
2) The screenshot utility doesn't quite work because the image urls are unreachable.
3) The compass used to have separate tooltips for each section so you could tell what part you were about to click on.  (This was especially useful for Butler users who got instant rolling feedback and could use it to find the compass part they wanted.)  Now it all just says "Compass" which isn't so grand.  It seems there's a single title which gets altered on the fly--a unique scenario Butler will have to handle differently (if it can...I don't think there's a "title altered" event I can capture).  Also, there is no longer a "Page West" vs "Row West" anyway, so it isn't as important as it once was.

ok thanks a lot first of all GM ThunderCat for his help :)

Now the map zoom in - out is good even if when you go max out you cant see details :)
About vans, diplo armies i liked the hard working donkey or the dove or the army image. :)

Question : Before we could see our Army name and size of troops on the army icon and also our allies armies, shall this be fixed also on this map system?

Yup, we'll miss the bird icons. They were pretty good.
