JTS games have many counters and big maps, so sometimes it's hard to grasp the situation, for yourself or readers of your AAR! So I made the tool. Now, it supports JTS/WDS Napoleonic Battles title (I tested it only on Wellington's Peninsular War and The Final Struggle). It should support other titles of NB if they have the same data structure.
The Civil War Battles series may be supported in the near future since they should have a similar data structure but I have not done the research.
- Right dragging to move camera
- Scroll to zooming
- Hover to show detail of units
- Load builtin & custom scenario/save files from left bar. (Some samples are included on attachedments)
Summary brigade (division would be supported in future) data and display an image like a pretty battle illustration like Waterloo map and Leipzig Map.
The tool creates an interactive map that shows the organization's name, strength, maneuver path on the map.
- French & Spanish Font Problem (It's too late to solve due to the time limit of the Jam)
- Formation Depth (Use the second eigenvalue instead of hardcoding)
- Division/Corp Level Summary
- Displaying Road
- Location Labels
- Simple 3D to show elevation (the built-in display method of JTS games is terrible!!!)
- Refined Artillry display
- Global optimization for label locations to prevent collision and overlap.
- Fix Cavalry icon Direction
- Show the leader's name on the tooltip
- Support PBEM save files.
- Label Size invariance when zooming
- Summarized attack arrow.
- Permit some manual editing (hide unit, adjust direction to fix artifact due to algorithm.)
Units are grouped by brigade and do simple clustering, then fit a 2d normal distribution to create a description for their shape.
