Overview

RepliMap 8.0.0 introduces major improvements to RepliCat, enabling users to perform supported map creation and editing tasks directly through natural-language commands. This release also adds Buffer Area visualization in Scenery View, improves GeoJSON traffic sign placement, enhances Map Validator outputs, and adds RepliMap version visibility in the User Profile dropdown. Multiple bug fixes and usability improvements are also included to provide a smoother and more reliable RepliMap experience.

Features & Improvements

• RepliCat Map Tools: RepliCat now supports the LLM Connect tool-calling workflow, allowing users to execute supported map tools through natural-language commands, including creating roads, adding objects, and editing map elements directly within RepliMap.
• Buffer Area Visualization: Buffer Areas are now visualized in Scenery View around the configured road or selected area, with support for closed-loop and open-loop Buffer Areas, live updates, and FBX export.
• RepliMap Version Display: The installed RepliMap version is now displayed in the User Profile dropdown.
• GeoJSON Traffic Sign Placement: Traffic signs now use the GeoJSON Z-value for height, with corrected facing direction when the road reference line is on the left side of the driving lanes.
• RepliCat Composer: Shift+Enter inserts a new line, while Enter sends the message.
• Map Validator: Validation results now include aggregated logs, detailed road-continuity results, and GeoJSON files identifying validation error locations.
• Usability & Stability: Multiple bug fixes and usability improvements are included to make RepliMap more user-friendly, stable, and reliable.

Known Issues

• GeoJSON Sign Visibility: Most signs and signals placed via GeoJSON are visible from both directions, which can make their placement difficult to verify.
• GeoJSON Elevation at Overlapping Roads: Elevation from GeoJSON may be assigned incorrectly where roads overlap.
• Legacy GeoReference Header: The Legacy GeoReference Header toggle may not work as expected.
• Properties Panel: The Road/Objects Properties panel may remain open after deleting an item with the Delete key.
• RepliCat – Typing Pad: The RepliCat input field may become inactive after a response.
