Big guns, old maps, and life advice from the 1940s — a perfect end to a long vacation. It is time to start working on ORBAT-mapper again.

Even if I create open source software, you can’t expect to get everything I do for free. This is apparently a hard concept for large organizations to understand.

Just released Battle Staff Tools 2.5.0 now with support for importing coordinates from PDF documents, improvements in scenario merging, and many other small fixes. You can find the new version at spatialillusions.com/unitgenerator

I’m in a light mood, but fine-tuning the darkness — a bit too busy for my taste. Dark mode design is not easy.

If Arthur Wellesley's tomb is here, where can I find Richard Sharpe's?

You can now update the geometry of an existing feature using the transformation panel. You can for instance use it to draw borders.

Someone should create and post the Imperial Camel Corps Brigade ORBAT #ORBATBOys I'm curious which unit symbol you will use for the 265th (Camel) Machine Gun Squadron.

Got it working! Rasters from a local @Esri TPKX direct into @maplibre. Remote files should 🤞 work as well with my custom zip parser. Next step VTPK.

You can now try the new chained geometry transformations! The UI is a bit rough, but you can achieve some interesting results with it. Have fun!

Today's experiment: chained unit transformations. You can create some pretty interesting shapes with it. Not production-ready yet, but promising.

Is this the center of gravity (COG) Clausewitz was referring to?

I'm currently in spring cleaning mode. It's boring work, but as a bonus, you now get a smoother and larger symbol icon picker.

Based on user feedback, I've implemented zoom level feature label visibility controls. The UI is not pretty, but it should get the job done.

I recently upgraded ORBAT Mapper to use Tailwind 4. Let me know if I broke something.

I'm taking a short break from ORBAT Mapper to work on an old side project. Don't worry—what I implement there will benefit ORBAT Mapper.

Got tired of searching for units in the ORBAT, so I added a button and a keyboard shortcut to jump straight to the active unit ("l" for locate) #dogfooding
