## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2026-08-18

- Lines on the map now follow the real track. Zooming in no longer shows angular lines or sudden changes of direction
- Ridden sections follow the track itself, so they no longer cut across curves
- "Show on map" from a line's detail screen now draws just that line
- Station names now carry their reading and romanisation (line detail, station edit, map card)
- Picking a station from search opens its card straight away
- Zooming in now shows station dots on lines you haven't ridden yet
- Stations are drawn as white dots, and a transfer station is a single dot instead of one per line

### 1.1.2 — 2026-07-29

- Zooming in now shows station dots on lines you haven't ridden yet
- Stations are drawn as white dots, so they stand out on top of a line
- Transfer stations no longer stack one dot per line on the map
- Not-yet-ridden lines are drawn a little stronger, so the network reads at a glance
- The save button on the visit and rolling-stock sheets is pinned to the bottom — no scrolling to save
