+PopPop_n_Mammie Posted October 21, 2003 Posted October 21, 2003 I released a TB on the second of August and noticed that there is no link to see a map of its travels. I checked other new TBs and they are the same. Is this feature being phased out? I hope not, I thought that was a pretty neat feature. PoPPoP_n_Mammie and Kess the wonder dog Quote
+brad.32 Posted October 21, 2003 Posted October 21, 2003 There is a minimum distance (100 miles?) it has to travel before the map feature activates. Quote
+Algonquin Bound Posted October 21, 2003 Posted October 21, 2003 Well, Take Me To Your Litre, a bug I recently moved, shows a map, with 38.07 miles traveled, so if there is a minimum, it must be less than that. So far, that is the only move logged for this TB. Cheers! Ian. Quote
+MtnLion Posted October 21, 2003 Posted October 21, 2003 Yeah, I have a bug that's been lingering since August and one that's moved quite a bit. My experience is that the map only shows up after it is useful. It's worthless to have a map that shows no movement. The map shows up on the bug page after the bug is placed in a cache other than the original cache. I wondered about that, too, until I watched the process and saw that the map link does appear. Makes sense, doesn't it? "Do the thing you fear most and the death of fear is certain." -Mark Twain Quote

+PopPop_n_Mammie Posted October 23, 2003 Author Posted October 23, 2003 Okay, My bug has only 15 miles on it so far. But it is headed to New York so should trip the map function then. Thanks! If you see ISKIME say hi for me! PoPPoP_n_Mammie and Kess the wonder dog Quote
+PopPop_n_Mammie Posted November 22, 2003 Author Posted November 22, 2003 Glad to announce the travel map is still active. The TB must travel a certain distance apparently. ISKIME has a map and is traveling!!! Off we go, thanks everyone. PopPop_n_Mammie and Kess the wonder dog. Quote
