Automatic Weather Fields and Easier way to Set the CP Location
« on: December 07, 2013, 04:25:12 PM »
A couple new features have been added to MM.  These should make productivity faster as mission gets rolling:
  • In the General screen there in the Weather section, there is a new button "Get Weather".  This button will use the Command Post GPS Location and reach out the the US National Weather Service to fill in the "Current Weather" and "Predicted Weather" fields automatically, as well as log these into the Event Log

  • On the Maps screen most everyone knows you can click anyplace on the map and a little popup appears with location information about the location you picked.  Now this popup includes "Set CP here", clicking on this will automatically set the Command Post location address and the Command Post GPS location in the General Screen.  See the attached image.
Enjoy!

PS These are partly Javascript changes you may need to refresh (F5) the Map and General screen for these new features to work.

Awesome! I was going to ask about some more wx features!  Our dispatchers always call into the WX service for WX history (previous 12 hours and next 12 hours).
