More detailed "hybrid" map on the load make to allow better selection/placement of aircraft

[Raul33852]

The detail level in the load globe is too simple, no roads or poi’s to help better find the area you are looking for. Detail should be closer to Google Earth, Its very hard to find anything on the map.

Improve the world map

The world map is just so very basic, at times it’s borderline useless. Superimpose international borders, also country names (could be switched on or off in Filters). Cities and major Town names, when zoomed in, could also be made optional. Improve the underlying image of the world. It really is a useless blur of nothingness when zoomed in. If this is created in vector format it’s overall memory footprint will be small, whilst being infinitely scalable with no loss of resolution. When flight p…

Better worldmap icons/legend

The map where you set up your new flight could use some work. FSX had a good map: you could see what was where in just a second. This map has all items (airports, navigation and scenery) represented by the same white dot, unless you zoom in very far. And even then different items are only distinguished by a small icon inside the white dot. I’d like to see more filters for airports, currently it is based on available runway type. But as somebody who prefers jetliners this doesn’t tell me en…

Improve the world map

The lack of detail on the world map is hard to understand. I can understand that the amount of detail should be lower when zoomed out, but even then you should be able to make out country borders and major cities, even on the “satellite” image - why is that so blurred? You can’t make out large geographical features, let alone rivers and cities. The map used by the Manual cache is much higher res. Once you start zooming in, detail is still absent by default. The map does not save your settings …
