Hi all I usually let splitter decide tiles based on max-nodes value, but for some maps I need to supply splitter an areas.list file which I adjust manually. Reasons for that include reducing the total number of tiles, avoiding cutting of some islands and separating right/left hand side driving areas or reducing number of tiles with both sides driving. For these cases, it would be helpful to be able to build "L shaped tiles", as in the attached image. I think these tiles could be defined by three coordinates (A,B,C), which would define the two rectangles in which the L shaped tile can be split, and a switch (1,2,3,4) to determine de orientation of the "L". 1: tile = A-lat, A-lon to B-lat, B-lon + A-lat,B-lon to C-lat,C-lon 2: tile = B-lat, A-lon to C-lat, C-lon + A-lat,B-lon to B-lat,C-lon 3: tile = A-lat, A-lon to B-lat, B-lon + B-lat,A-lon to C-lat,C-lon 4: tile = A-lat, A-lon to C-lat, B-lon + A-lat,B-lon to B-lat,C-lon This raises several questions. First of all, if is feasible, then if it is worth the effort to implement it, how would if affect splitter performance and if it makes sense for other users. Perhaps it could be a first step towards irregular tiles...
