SkySong Devlog #2 :3

whats new

Since the last devlog i have now migrated the map functions to maplibre with maputnik to generate the styles and 3D aspects of the map such as the buildings. All new features:

• 3D building and bridges
• Maplibre now being used
• The user can now create their own bounding box with shift and click
• Terrain is now shown and can be turned on and off

the struggles

When creating with maplibre it was a struggle to find some good free APIs for the map and terrain data that didnt limit my capabilities throughout testing and release. Another struggle is my research for free live aircraft data that i can next add to my map.

whats next?

Upcoming features:

• Live plan data mapped
• Plane info available for each one
• Backend for certain functions instead of being local
• Weather shown on the map
• The musical abilities

thanks for reading!! :3
