OpenRustMap Roadmap

Recently shipped

  • Radio-map playback (v1.1): native pause (p), volume (+ / -), decode/output errors in the status line, external player mode (m cycles PlayInPlugin → UrlOnly → ExternalPlayer, or Settings e to prefer external on open). Executable: OPENRUSTMAP_RADIO_PLAYER (default mpv).
  • Mouse: terminal mouse capture enabled; map scroll-zoom and right-drag pan are suppressed while Settings or Radio-map is open; in Radio-map, wheel moves selection, left-click selects a row, right-click plays.

Vision

  • A polished terminal world-map app that runs as its own product.
  • Plugin-driven features (starting with Radio-map), enabled from settings when installed.
  • Spelman remains fully separate; any similar radio search there is independent and non-map.

Near-Term (v1.x)

  • Add map color styling where data supports it:
    • water/sea in blue
    • land in green
    • desert/arid regions in tan
    • fallback: if biome/landclass data is missing, prioritize placenames and linework
  • Improve map labels:
    • zoomed all the way out: no placenames
    • zoom in: country names
    • zoom in more: states/oblasts/regions
    • zoom in further: city names, then denser local labels
    • progressive label density by zoom with overlap control
  • Add map detail levels in settings:
    • Low: country outlines + water
    • Normal: current roads/water/land
    • High: more roads + places + richer overlays
  • Improve globe view:
    • smoother full-world projection at min zoom
    • adaptive rendering based on terminal size
  • Expand plugin host:
    • discover plugins from ~/.config/openrustmap/plugins
    • enable/disable plugins in settings
    • dynamic top menu items per installed plugin

Mid-Term (v2)

  • Better rendering pipeline:
    • async tile loading + prefetch queue
    • improved line styling and polygon fill quality
    • label collision avoidance
  • Topographic modes:
    • hillshade-like contour layer
    • terrain tinting where tile source supports it
  • Radio-map improvements:
    • better geo fallback if station lacks coordinates
    • station filtering by language/tag/bitrate
    • internal playback profiles (shipped in v1.1 — extend with UI polish / ffmpeg-free AAC edge cases)

Long-Term (v3+)

  • Configurable style packs (themes).
  • Additional plugin SDK docs and examples.
  • Optional offline tile packs / MBTiles source support.
  • Multi-pane workflows for embedding hosts.
