Hello, can you please set the Fieldspotter map to display spots from the WWBOTA cluster with a "live" status? It currently only displays everything older than 1 hour.

Thanks, this is probably a good idea. It does seem like re-spotting isn't really a thing people do for WWBOTA, so maybe I could just ignore the time constraint for Bunkers, or set it to something like 12 or 24 hours.

If it could be displayed according to the "live" status, it would probably be a better choice. 12(24) hours is too much :-)

Field Spotter already only displays the "Live" spots. (Unless you have display of QRT spots enabled, in which case it displays those too.) I assume the problem is that if a spot is still shown as Live in the cluster, but is e.g. 65 minutes old, Field Spotter won't show it because it's over the 1 hour age limit?

Exactly. If I want to view it, I have to re-activate it and no one does that.

Hopefully the software should now behave as expected for bunkers, if so please close the issue, if not please let me know!
