ORBAT Mapper

@SapperJaeger Indeed. I usually prefer typing over clicking, so this is a nice way to start working on a scenario

@orbatmapper very helpful!

The text-to-ORBAT tool now has a scratchpad area where you can mothball your units. Just drag units there for safekeeping. You can also rearrange them before you export them.

Pro tip: Use | or [] to pass metadata without including it in the unit name.

The text-to-ORBAT tool sets sail

Did you know you can drag and drop units across tabs or windows? This is particularly helpful when using the Text to ORBAT tool.

@CS_Hannibal You can save the generated ORBAT as a scenario and then import it. I'll add copy/paste support soon.

@orbatmapper It is awesome! Is there a possibility of importing an orbat into an existing one?

@ThomasHalwax Getting the symbol mapping right is the most difficult part, but that could be provided to the LLM as instructions 🤔

@orbatmapper I have been using Gwen 3.5 13B for analyzing documents and it works quite well. I think that creating an ORBAT out of pure text should be a no-brainer for this model.

@ThomasHalwax I spot some errors in the screenshot , so I need to fine-tune things a bit more. I should experiment more with LLMs for this use case. They are very good at extracting this kind of information from text.

@ThomasHalwax This is just old school pattern matching based on regular expressions . The code is mostly LLM-generated though. Using an LLM for this would probably work very well.

@SapperJaeger It introduced a lot of extra complexity unfortunately, but I hope it is worth it.

@orbatmapper quite helpful & useful!

ORBAT Mapper now supports dynamic ORBATs, allowing units to re-parent mid-scenario.

This is a major internal change, so expect some bugs. Please let me know if you find any or have suggestions for improving the UX!

@Saebelzahnmoewe I agree. It's been a long time since I've worked on the Falklands scenario. I've been too busy implementing new features

@orbatmapper You should give Darwin and Goose Green some love! Preferably the 105 mm kind!

Giving the mobile UX some love

You can now override map symbol size for individual units. Should it also be animatable?

@geschlittert I keep introducing new bugs and reintroducing old ones, so I don’t know what tag I should give it 😎

@orbatmapper Should give it a sigma tag 😎

I'm tired of the beta tag, so I'm removing it.

@ThomasHalwax Beautiful!

@orbatmapper I can highly recommend a garden.

Bonus feature for Goole Earth users. You can now export custom unit icons to KMZ.

@ThomasHalwax I have no plans to monetize my work. Currently, it costs me money, but most hobbies are expensive anyway. A vegetable garden is tempting.

@orbatmapper @49agents So you’re no plans to monetize your work? Farming is nice btw!
