A map of where everyone is, drawn in your screen's own colours.
- A person tile can be a map. Set its display to Map and it shows the streets around them, your zones, and a
marker with each person's initials in their own colour. Show frames everyone on the card, the area around home, or
the area around that person; with the last two, Distance picks street, neighborhood, town or region, and someone
outside the view is a small marker on the edge, pointing the way. Also on the map adds up to seven more people.
It works on every tile size, from one cell to the whole page, on every screen that draws pictures. - Calm, and in your screen's colours. The streets come from Home Assistant's own map (its
map_tilesintegration,
from OpenStreetMap) as plain data, and ESP Screens draws them itself: quiet greys and white streets, water and green in
soft tints, and strong colour only for the people. A screen in Dark mode gets a dark map, and each screen gets the look
it is in, also when two screens show the same card in different looks. - Only when someone moves. A map is drawn again when someone on it moves more than about 25 meters, changes state or a
zone changes, never on a clock. The screen gets a picture and never a location. docs/MAP.md has the details. - Thanks to @stevenhorner for the idea and the first version of a map card (discussion #105), which showed how it could
work: the framings, the people riding along and the movement mark come from it.
