| Game update | File … Import Track (in Beta version) Finally the feature 2 people have been waiting 4 years for. Import tracks from kml/kmz files (produced using Google Earth) or from data stored in CSV (Comma Separated Values) files.

With the Google API enabled, the tracks are… | — | |
| Community | Developer Update Feb 2019 The next version of RTB is still in development. This version is mostly around separating the Google Maps and Height functions into two plugins that can be swapped out for other plugins. This will enable us to move away from using Google and those clever enough will be able to develop their own plugins to use with RTB. Height Maps and Laser Data anyone? 😊 Another related improvement I have mad… | — | |

| Community | Developer update: Beyond 151 Version 1.5.1.0 is still sitting in Beta waiting your feedback. I’ve done all the coding that I expect to on this, so it’s only your user feedback I am waiting on before release.
