Cache Setting on Map

Could we have a  Lock option on "Centre on Cache" with an auto zoom to show my location plus the B-line.

Also  could  we  have  "My  Location"  added  to  this  menu,  which  would  have  3  possibilities..  GPS,  Car / Trail Start /  Waypoint ,  My  Home  Location  (in-exact).

I'm often reluctant to run my battery down with GPS usage, thus gcdroid always thinks im at a previous location.

Storing  my  Car  location  is  very  handy,  or  the  Trail  Start.

  And  finally,  my  cache  planning  is  often  done  at  home,  so  centering  on  home  would  be  very  handy  too.

tap the button bottom right, just like google maps it will keep map centered on you. tap again and it will auto-rotate.

move the map and it turns off.

I am not willing to add extra features for users that disable GPS. This is an essential part of this game and the honest saving is barely measurable. Looking at the map in GCDroid with or without battery will not give you anythings noticeable.

use for home is too rare and random that it justifies wasting screen space permanently...

and HQ allows users to opt-in and out of sharing of this data. extra work for these guys...

Will close this topic as all that will be implemented is already done.

Auto-zoom was already discussed before and rejected.
