Need updated icons and maps. Created this issue based on old app usage and surveys.

Q: Is there API available for entities and maps? Maps are readily available at https://squadmaps.com/. Clean height maps w&w/o contour are also available at https://mega.nz/folder/sO4ljaJB#9aGC12uL5G0WhqdkL8cZyg. The maps on squadmaps.com aren't "empty" (they are snapshots of a specific layer), but I have on my computer clean high-res maps without the layers, that I can provide.

Q: How often is entities and maps changing? Icons seldom change, but 1-2 maps are added per year. Existing maps barely change as 3D models, but their layers (flags to capture etc.) may change. See https://squadlanes.com (open source data) for current lanes.

Going to start working on this, gathering the map/icons/layers. LMK if this is discontinued.

Hello, thanks for your interest. It is not discontinued. It is just hard to find time to continue working on this as my daily work is taking a bit too much time. Hopefully status will change during the coming months.

@NikoGrano I have the code finished for the Squad game, would you prefer to make a PR into master or make a feature branch? I tried to make a feature branch but don't have permissions in the main Static repo.

Opened a PR feel free to decline if you want a branch for it to test first.
