Hi!

Currently, all WPs fade out equally when you zoom a long way out on the LOTR map. This is good… but I think it could be better!

I suggest that you give all WPs a number based upon how "major" they are - maybe 1-3 - and make the less major WPs fade out as they currently do (or a bit earlier depending upon how minor they are) but then disappear entirely at the top 1 or 2 levels of zoom, so you can't click on them. A similar concept would apply to roads, with the major roads being visible regardless of the zoom.

Additionally, If you fast travel to a WP often (a set number of times) it will become more major and be visible if you zoom further out, even if it wasn't before.

You could also (maybe) give an option for what number you want your Custom WPs to have when you make them (this is not essential though).

The number assigned to roads could also be related to the width/material(s) of the road.

Benefits:

This would allow you to zoom out with WPs on and actually be able to click on the major ones (along with the ones you use often) without them being surrounded by other minor ones.

The biggest benefit is that this would make adding WPs/roads easier, as the main thing holding you back right now is not wanting to clog up the map too much, but if you effectively don't have a load of the less major WPs/roads visible when zoomed out a long way, it will seem much less clogged and adding more WPs would be easier.

Things you could add include: The paths used by Aragorn/The Hobbits when travelling to Rivendell from Bree; (I might edit this and add more things here)
