What is slow? Initial load or general usage?

General usage. Even when i trying put cords it take a while to numbers show up. But maybe issue on my side.

Hm, which browser do you use?

Chrome. I will try later since my PC is under heavy usage now. I like port battle zones on your map!

[Slim McSauce]

Really like the aesthetic you used. Can confirm though (on chrome atleast) general usage is slow, like built in GPS on a car.

[qw569😳]

good job

You forgot to add fort at Barahona (red X).

Funny. It is developed on chrome. Can you try another browser?

It is not contained in the API as all data is taken from there (nothing manual).

[Powderhorn]

Very nicely done!

It might be a memory problem as it uses a lot of it. Can you please check if the memory is eaten up?

Here's the before and after, only that tab open

Noted, zooming in to roughly where the picture filled the top of the bahamas and the bottom of cuba the lag virtually disappeared.

[The Wren]

It seems to be working just fine for me in Firefox.

[Guest]

well done

[victor]

nice map indeed

I didnt expect the user moving the mouse around so fast ^^ I will see what I can do to improve the speed

Thank you all for the nice comments.

Put in a compass and line tool and it would be pretty much perfect! Very nice!

Can you please detail how a line tool should work? Do you want just a line between two points or a journey with a number of lines?

[Villaret Joyeuse]

Very nice, and not at all slow. Good Work

[jodgi]

Fantastic, Felix!

• I like the accuracy of Prater's map (it allows for the variable wind direction).  Versatile & customized for each ship's top speed.    I find the timings to be very close and it's nice to be able to include multiple legs of a journey.
• Domox's Burning Sail is easy fast access when a distance and time is needed quickly.  Good for short distances with one leg.

The most important feature for navigation is to be able to input the ship's speed.

The map you have created contains lots if information and works very quickly for me.  Both loading and access times are almost instant.  I would like it more  if the refresh did not recenter the view:  perhaps add a clear button that holds the screen position but removes the co-ordinates that are displayed with double left mouse clicks.
