Turf Map Overlays
Forums › Suggestions & Feedback › Turf Map Overlays-
I was thinking if it was possible, it would be really cool if on the turf map, you could have a special overlays that had a couple features.
1) I mentioned this in another thread, it's to have a "satellite" hybrid image display instead of just the map view (like in the iPhone Map App). This would be cool since I know personally some of my turfs are placed specifically on spots based on the building or geographic feature there. This would be also help either camouflage or expose certain "hidden turf colors". The "hybrid" overlay would be optional, with the map view staying default, so if a player doesn't switch over then it's on them if they don't see a hidden turf. This could be set to be a temporary setting, as in, you start the app, load the turf page, select the hybrid mode, then it stays that way till you exit and the next time you open the app it's back to map view.

2) The other overlay I think would be awesome is if you are Capo of a city, you could have a special map color that spans that city on your turf view (again, optional setting). Since there are some areas where a lot of a city is not covered in turf, but still has a Capo, it would show up. I think being able to open the map and being able to see (and show someone) that your are the Capo "of all this area" would be neat and a much nicer visual cue of your influence. Also this could help show where the city boundaries actually are, as I noticed sometimes the placement of the turfs can vary from one street to the next as to what city they count for. This way you can see the holes and lines if you are Capo.
Anyways, interested in seeing what you all think, I think they'd both be cool options if technically feasible to implement.

Cool

Wicked cool.

This is already available on the web turf map...the reason I don't think it would ever be implemented in the app is that it is too much raw data once you load the graphics & all the turfs. The regular map is slow enough, even on wifi. Imagine trying to load an actual satellite or hybrid map with turfs on a 3G or even worse, an E connection.I was thinking if it was possible, it would be really cool if on the turf map, you could have a special overlays that had a couple features.

Ah I hadn't even noticed that on the web site version, neat to see it. Although, even if it would be slow (although, it loads tolerably fast enough for me through the normal iphone map app), that's why it'd be optional, so just for people who want to see it. I mean, if it's a big tech. problem and would cause problems/slow down for people not using it, then of course nevermind. Just figured if it was possible would be cool. And thanks for the comments everyone, glad I wasn't the only one to think it'd be a neat feature :). -
Mix this with the ability to filter turfs on the map.
Show all, show mine, show others, show captured, etc.And that would be an A+ feature!!👍👍👍👍

Bump, some good ideas here, would love to see at least some of them added, if not all.

Just wanted to bring this idea back instead of retyping it. I would still love to see it.

👍 to the satalite view!

Yay

V's suggestion is better. The ability to filter and focus on specific turf by type would be awesome.Mix this with the ability to filter turfs on the map.

I like the filter idea as well. Could slow people from hiding by using a more powerful players color, too.
