Well this is my last map update from China. Not that it wasn't great here, but internet connection with workable speed for working stuff on the Server was a major PITA. Truly wouldn't be able to work from here for longer, everything takes 5-10 times as much time. So for fixing little stuff it took ages. Nevertheless as of tomorrow all openmtbmaps and velomaps should now have contourlines integrated -- this means all countries for which I offered contourlines previously/separately. Additionally now also the full Europe map has contourlines integrated.
For the velomaps that include contourlines, some bug that I didn't notice stopped the creation. I fixed it today and right now the Velomaps are uploading with contourlines. For the openmtbmap (well and actually also maps of Europe) I had a typo that meant that no altitude profile for routes is shown in Basecamp/Mapsource. I fixed this on the VeloMaps, but than if you deselect the contourlines the routing will crash. I'm thinking on how to fix it (I know how I could do it, but that would increase the filesize by about 10% because I would have to include separate search address index files) or if I should leave the status quo, or whether I should make it impossible to deselect the contourlines and thereby circumvent the problem....
I may add contourlines for some more countries, but not so sure yet. If so it will rather be on the "premium downloads" only available to donators....
