Improving the properties for installations (land symbols) #185

Open harrywipperfuerth opened 4 years ago

harrywipperfuerth commented 4 years ago

The properties of the symbols for installations (land symbols) should be improved, since not all amplifiers can be filled in according to 2525c or 2525d:

Remarks:

The ampfliers marked in pink are those that apply to installations (according to 2525d).

Proposal for the content and structure of the property window (named "Installation") for the installations (land symbols):

Remarks:

The green marked amplifiers correspond to the specifications according to 2525d. However, the unmarked amplifiers appear to be useful or necessary.

Higher Formation and Special C2 HQ are not listed in the list of amplifiers for installation symbols in 2525d.

From a national AUT point of view, however, these amplifiers would be necessary, as they would be able to map the territorial structure as well as the special stationary services (e.g. military training areas etc.).

My suggestion would be to include these amplifiers in the properties and map them on the map accordingly.

In my opinion, the amplifier "Engagement Bar" would not need to be included in the properties section.

The amplifier "Installation" is not necessary here, because the representation as installation is already done via the symbol.

The amplifier "Direction of Movement" is not necessary here, since the representation of the direction of movement as well as a speed (not directly listed with the amplifiers for installations, but listed on Table VII, page 21 in 2525d as a possibility) makes no sense with installations.

The Icon "Change Symbol Type" is used to change the "basic symbol" within the installation symbols without the user having to create a new symbol and thus discard the previous entries.

The amplifier "Offset location indicator" must be enabled when the symbol is displayed on the map:
