Feature requests

Recently, bugs have been fixed on "My Maps" page, which is great ! However, the page is still not handy to use and here are some changes that are needed so we finally have easy access to all maps ! Sort maps by button (choices) : Alphabetical, Date (newest to oldest), Date (oldest to newest), Popularity (number of games played/likes, as you want) By default, I would put "Date (newest to oldest)". Currently, it's "Date(oldest to newest)" Research bar to find the map you want in a few seconds

If you currently want to generate any challenge seeds in a given order, you need to generate until you find the right one. Same if you have more than 5 points in your map. Could it be possible for the map owner to generate a seed with a set of 5 selected points in a chosen order ?

When importing locations from the library, the orientation of this location is wrong. This is an issue for me, as the content library would be a cool new feature for lag-free editing of maps with many (handpicked) locations. It would be extremely helpful if you could just import those locations without having to adjust it again. Edit: Of course it would also be great if there was a solution for the lag-problem.

The title should be self-explanatory, but the point is that it would be cool if you could add a way to sort your own created maps into folders, like on Discord servers. Especially if you have created a lot of maps, it's easy to lose track. Another cool sorting function would be to be able to choose whether the maps (whether in the folder or not) should be sorted alphabetically upwards or downwards, just like in online stores (by price or date).

Hi GG team, I've recently started to take the game seriously and have started to build up a bank of training maps for various different things, from European area codes to Indian languages or just different world maps which have a different tilt. Already, finding maps can become unnecessarily time consuming. Could you please add some kind of structure within liked maps which enables players to organise those they have saved?

Ok, now it's getting ridiculous. When making a map, not only the latest trivia is saved, but all my intermediate saves are saved as well. And now users can see all my edits, including doublets, spelling mistakes etc. I now have this map with 1.700 locations, https://www.geoguessr.com/maps/67312166c22a8c3d28e82cce , that contain trivia for each location. But no option to delete any trivia that is invalid. I can only see the latest trivia. So in essence, we need a feature to delete any trivia that we created ourselves, leaving only the correct one behind. Not that I'm looking forward to going through all 1.700 locations to clean up trivia textx. Sigh...

It would be great if map makers could assign a custom image or logo to the maps they create. This would let creators showcase their maps better and make them more visually appealing. A custom image would also help maps stand out and be easier to recognize.

Descriptions for Locations can not be exported or imported, making it impossible to propperly backup location descriptions.

Currently, I can't find a way to import/export locations and have it include its Location Description. The ability to import & export locations with its Location Description would make it so much easier to add descriptions to each location, especially when I want to temporarily remove locations to create a challenge link then add them back without having to manually go to every location and add its description back.

Currently, maps are labeled as “1000+” whether they have 1,000 or 9,000 locations, even though the replayability is very different between the two. There should at least be a “5K+” tier, which would have the following benefits: It would encourage map creators to add more locations in order to reach a 5,000-location milestone (which is a more realistic and motivating goal than aiming directly for 10K). It would make maps with higher replayability* more visible and reward their creators with better exposure and potentially more players. (* when a map only has 1,000 locations, you may experience a repeat after only 45 games. With 5,000 locations, that number drops to around 100 games without any repeat — a significant improvement in user experience.) Similarly, I think a “25K+” tier would also be very useful, since the gap between 10K and 50K is currently too wide.
