Shields on topstats
mapcat:
Also, just noticed a bug that seems to apply to all users who have clinched the NJ Turnpike: in the middle column, travelled miles > length, and the background color is not the normal "clinched" blue.

I've not been able to reproduce this one. Anyone else seeing this?

seconded! Could be next to the system selection.
Jim:
Thanks for all of the suggestions. I want to make sure these don't get lost, so I'll point to existing or new Issues about these. Some are specific to topstats and some will apply anywhere we use the shields.
--- Quote from: mapcat on February 07, 2021, 08:28:25 am ---I agree that repeating the route name under the shield is unimportant. Personally I think using hover for all info (route name, group name, banner) would make it look cleaner.

I'm thinking that we'd want a non-empty city field shown all the time (like it is on clinched.php), and a banner added above to distinguish those (https://github.com/TravelMapping/Web/issues/618). Other info could be in hover.

I've kind of downplayed the idea of the tiers on the user point of view. Maybe others think differently, but I don't care of a route is a tier 2 or a tier 3, as they seem pretty arbitrarily assigned as CHM and then TM expanded highway coverage.

Sounds like fun. https://github.com/TravelMapping/Web/issues/619
--- Quote ---Overall stats for disconnected connected routes (e.g. I-35, US 20)
--- End quote ---
This gets back to the problem we discussed a lot last summer about "related routes". TM data has no way to say that the 3 I-35's and 2 US 20's are the same route in some meaningful way, but pairs like the pairs of I-84, I-86, I-87, I-88, are not.
--- Quote ---More of a general comment, not solely for topstats: how difficult would it be to limit the list of systems and regions to those in which the user has travelled?

--- Quote ---As has been mentioned before, eventually it would be wonderful to be able to have stats by country (for countries with subregions) and continent, here and elsewhere.

Yes, a definite longstanding item: https://github.com/TravelMapping/Web/issues/54
--- Quote ---Regarding the shields, seeing a list of all the routes in usasf and usanp I've clinched reminded me that the current generic shields for these are less than ideal. Could these be changed to a larger rectangle with the full name of the route spelled out instead of the abbreviation (i.e., pull "city" instead of "route" from the file)? I guess the way we have the usanp files set up, some of these would include park names and therefore be obnoxiously long, but for usasf, usakyp, and usanyp IMO this would be better than the current substitute, at least until actual shields are created for the roads that have them.

With some having fairly long names I'm not sure how we could this to work generally. At the moment, the svg files for the shields are resized to fit into the various places they are used. For usanp, maybe the NPS shield would help? https://github.com/TravelMapping/Web/issues/621
