Extend Saxon jump grades #3807

Open birgander2 opened 3 years ago

birgander2 commented 3 years ago

What happened?

Saxon jump grades seem to be supported until grade 5, higher grades are not recognized:

Example here

This should be extended until (at least) 6 or (better) 7. As the "Ethics" for the area correctly states "Jumping is an accepted way of reaching a summit. This can range from slightly more than a stepover to completely insane kamikaze operations. The respective grade system (1-easy to 4-hard) is currently extended to 6 or even 7."

What you expected:

That a grade 6 jump is parsed in the same way as easier ones. Btw, the local guides usually show combined climb/jump grades as something like "VI/5" and not as "VI 5".

Additionally, it would be helpful to show the used grading system one mouse over "Saxon and Jumps" in this example. "V 2" means here a grade V route with a grade 2 jump and not a V2 boulder. This important mouse over information is shown only while editing a route, but not in the route listing or route details.

I have added the extra jumps grades.

@nicHoch maybe you could comment on the potential confusion between boulder V2 and grade with jump V 2

nicHoch commented 3 years ago

I do not think that there is a real potential confusion between boulder V2 and grade V with jump 2. We should just remove the Bouldering Vermin V-scale within the Saxon Grade Context as V grades for Boulders are not used in Saxon. But also as it is at the moment a Jump grade should be always delimited by a space or "/" like (III 2) and not (III2)

scd commented 3 years ago

SX context does not have V-scale bouldering.

@nicHoch I think that the only thing that remains is to check that we are correctly using the slash everywhere. I think it is missing in the color grade in header and stream. @nicHoch please confirm

missing slashes in @scd

Regarding the original request, saxon jump grades are now extended, for example: https://www.thecrag.com/en/climbing/germany/sachsische-schweiz/bielatal/area/230948769

So the issue can be closed?

But I would like to see the notation "6/IV" (instead of the actual "IV 6") like it is used in every saxon and czech guidebook and database.
