It does look like a pizza pie. I prefer the whole map too
I still wait this release but as much as i don't like indent from above(at stock A10 i had notchkiller,but it doesnt work with A13) so i don't like this black thing as what i saw on screenshots. Maybe if it was dimmed or blurred,idk. The best idea is to revert this change at all.
What are y'all talking about? Badges? Community web page? Intel map? Scanner?
See the release notes for 2.101.3
Yeah, I see it now. The map is chopped off at the top,
It reduces our participation area. From my home, using a key, I could reach a different portal to upload the picture I took when I was there. Then, the blackness came in (I got the "upgrade"), and I could not see my target portal again - to submit an edit to correct its title.
Also it makes the heading look way more primitive and low tech. From a key: the portal name, address, etc, used to hang in the air above map. Now its background is just black, like the portal information was just licked and stuck there (not even glue, lol).
EDIT: I just went to move my drone to a portal it could see before I got the blackout at top of screen. Now the drone can't see it anymore. :(
So, I understand and accept that Ingress doesn't load portals and links and fields out to infinity.
Given that, I wonder whether the "rounded edges" are someone's initial attempt at implementing the "fog of war."
Interesting theory.
Except that we're supposed to be secret Agents (not battle-weary soldiers), with future-tech computers and Ada helping us know things we can't currently see. The scanner is INTEL - data, not fog.
EDIT: Maybe Ada got hit in the head, and now she's nearsighted.
yeah a portal i could drone jump to before was not possible now due to the black edges at top so it wasnt even visible with this new change☹️
I have not yet spotted a portal that would have been visible before but is not anymore. Would you be willing to share drone location and the portal that is no longer visible?
maybe that's the point ? 😅
remove drone jump abuse further than it should be allowed with portal showing when you have the key
Can you provide a specific source and destination portal? Because the portals currently stick up above the black ring where they're visible outside the usual range (due to having a key etc).
This is Hobart, Tasmania. I think the black gaps is what they are referring. However i think what Nia intention was is to get the curves to work better & more visable as there was differences between scanner & inrel map
Niantic should really load all the portals that are within visible distance. Pogo does it.. I can see gyms and stops just over 1km away.. Why is ingress inferior?
But no matter what, Niantic should most definitely load MAP tiles as far as visible distance! Seeing the full map helps with navigation and orientation, and it's minimal server load!
