Heavy distortions in classygmaps #99

Open naoliv opened 8 years ago

This is a picture from Google Street View: Google

And the same place from classygmaps: classy

Note how this straight highway is heavily distorted. It also happens in cities and basically everywhere where I have tested, specially with a low zoom level (a wider view).

This specific place, if you need to test something, is https://goo.gl/maps/wwk6wECPZsG2

This is a 'known' issue in the underlying Google Maps API https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=6306

As it happens, I just looked at that, thread, and apprently there is now an experimental new renderer can try. But as only just found out about it, havent tried it in ClassyGaps yet.

Will give it a go when get a chance.
