TacTrace is live at: tactrace.orbat-mapper.app
Still very much a work in progress, so I'd love your feedback and bug reports. I mostly built it as a sandbox for myself before adding things to ORBAT Mapper. (2/2)

No fancy new maps today, but you get 11 new sustainment line graphics and a bunch of label-placement bug fixes.

In TacTrace you can now tweak the Atlas basemap style and disable borders, cities and labels. Useful for historic scenarios.

A great thing about trying to recreate the West Point War Atlas maps is that it exposes missing TacTrace functionality. I definitely need better annotation tools and typography controls.

This is my first time creating a custom map style, and I really like how it turned out. Next up, I'm thinking about adding historical borders and infrastructure like railways.

New generic graphic added to TacTrace: Split arrow. Hold Ctrl/⌘, and drag from a point to pull out a new flow. I've also added options for setting tail arrowheads.

I love the new flow arrow tool in TacTrace. These kinds of arrows are so common in maps, allowing me to recreate this map from West Point's classic war atlases.
