Route planning on tablet

Hi all,

We’ve pushed some changes in the last few days that will result in a smoother and faster route query using tablets.

The map displaying the route, while nice, required too much individual API calls to iRail & SNCB, resulting in rather long “calculating” messages, or even no information being displayed at all (due to time outs).

This has now been fixed.

And Silver Building is equipped as well (it’s a surprise, so we had to turn it off for the picture ;))!

Atlantic House: route planning using the tablet.

MyTurtle: buttons

13 March 2013

Hi,

I’ll take this opportunity to give a quick work of explanation about the buttons you see in MyTurtle Panel.

From left to right:

1. Message
2. Clock (blue = enabled)
3. Screen power (blue = turned on)
4. Reload

Message allows you to put a short message, full screen, on your FlatTurtle. This message will exist for a short time (about 30 seconds). After that, the normal information will be displayed again.
By the way, if you want a more permanent solution, take a look at the “Footer” option, and select “Message”. This will put a permanent message at the bottom on your FlatTurtle.

After being unavailable for a little while, we’re happy to announce “walking times” are back!

The walking times are calculated directly from your location within the MyTurtle panel.

We have also rewritten the backend for this, which causes the walking times to be calculated just once, when the Turtle is created, and not every time MyTurtle is started (every morning). This reduces load drastically.
