Description

This is a beta release to fix issues from 8.0.0b1.

For more info on the roadmap to the next stable release, here is the 8.0.0 milestone: https://github.com/rectangle-dbmi/Realtime-Port-Authority/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%228.0.0+Release+Milestone%22+is%3Aopen

Enhancments for the next beta:

Take note: @mikeantonacci and I have decided drop #233 and #283 from this release due to time constraints and further rethinking of the app architecture. This may be going into the next stable release.

Known beta issues

  • bus list stops displaying routes when no route appears for a certain route. This will be fixed for beta 3

Changes

Bug fixes:

  • Clearing transit no longer lags
  • Pittsburgh should always be the center point of the map. Previously, the app will zoom on Africa (latitude, longitude (0, 0)) on certain edge cases

Code Changes

  • fix problems with extraneous calls to remove map elements redundantly
  • Update all @JakeWharton dependencies (you handsome man...)

UI Differences (tweaking)

  • route lines (polylines) now thinner
  • stops no longer translucent
