Hallo all lightning fans, see what happened
http://map.blitzortung.org/#0.86/0/6.8

When will the green line animation (rays) be added to the stations on the map?

Station lines are active on the "Fixed Size" mapping: http://blitzortung.org/live_lightning_maps.php

There are plans to add to the new map?

Cool design, looks pretty nice for me Love how station signs look like *_* Waiting so much for all the functions that the old dynamic map had like station lines. Will be cool if you add regulated counter and opportunity to open pages of statistic of station by clicking on it. Also wait optimization for mobile browsers. Good luck! And thank you =)

Looks nice, however it falls foul of data protection as it shows the EXACT location of the stations publicly, these should have a random offset of half a mile or so.

I like how the lightning slider removes all but the latest strikes. Brilliant!

What would be nice is the ability to change the + markers to smaller dots. That's one of the reasons why I prefer LMO over BT realtime maps. :-)

There is a lot of strokes in my area right now. The more I play with the settings, the more I like it!

Who made this, Tobias or Egon?

What does Mike mean by the lightning slider removing  all but the most recent strikes?

I'm not sure what the lightning slider even is?

Hi Dale,

Just click the little menu icon, and you will see all the options drop down in a box. There are checkboxes to enable or disable several options, and each checkbox has a little slider to the left that can be dragged left or right.

Later I'll share about all flaws that I noticed at the moment. Perhaps this will help.

At first i would to mark flaws and inconveniences. In the second i want say what i want to see on new map.

About bugs, flaws and inconveniences:
1) On some devices the site with new map is opened with white/empty page or it doesn't open at all. https://yadi.sk/i/XVapEDPh3A1v2A https://yadi.sk/i/XOhKUa2sRlpDWA
2) There are some defects with the map which can occur. https://yadi.sk/i/gzjpNT6kavla6Q https://yadi.sk/i/QR_QCVlyP6jlRg
3) Also there are some flaws with names (slashes and quotes) https://yadi.sk/i/CWrlq4soVL0O-g and no numbers on lightning counter sometimes https://yadi.sk/i/zqA8m-gPBiYp-g, and there is only code of station without its sign https://yadi.sk/i/AmmhjP5TjjC9oQ.
4) Inconveniences for me. Lightning counters recover lightning signs https://yadi.sk/i/-aMuleMDi2CCvw and non-active stations recover active ones https://yadi.sk/i/sBKscvE2r1dUkg.

Now about suggestions.
I am waiting for station lines so much.  
Will be cool if i can go to the station page when click on its icon/sign.
Also be cool if i can see simple information about lightning strike by clicking on its sign.

Anyway thank you a lot for working at that cool map.  

Images which on links:

Some of the bugs can not easily be fixed because maxbox does not always work properly on all (older) devices.

The fact that the counters sometimes disappear is because stations or the current strikes are drawn over them. I will assign the counters to the top level.

The green lines I'm just trying to insert just like some other features.

The settings are lost when you close the page.

Egon, thank you very much for the green lines on the new map! I observed that my green lines, pointing towards Australia, heading still to the east, and also from the Hawaiian Station 993! On the old fixed map this is alright and the only way to do it, but maybe you could fix this issue on the new map?

Also I again say Thanks and Respects to Egon and team of developers! 
About bugs and lines defects. Think it's just under construction. Also be great if stations that registered the stroke were highlighted   And sounds of strokes from whole map be fixed too   ^^
Also I noticed a couple of flaws. 1) Defect with map + strange white|grey lines 2) Sometimes station lines don't occur (probably it's my fault, coz shit PC (which cant to process the data)). 
Screenshots:

next little option, once we have the little popup from a station, link to it's stats page like on the lightning page 

I see my wish is coming live, except the link seems badly formulated. It is going to oceania region while I'm let's see ... Europe ?

Almost there thanks

Is it possible to add a ruler for measuring distances?
