* Added a map to show where other stn are // refactored message adding to tables for performance, max 30.000 msg now

* debugging map failure

* debugging map failure

* debugging map failure

* fix Pipeline Modules n map Linux

* changed UI design to save some space. Made the UI more reactive for smaller screens. Maximized resolution at startup to the possible maximum of the current display of the user

* Docs added for new Features

* Added filters and sorters for Tropo reachability, AS availability and new big fields / locators. Added reachability band selector for tropo calculation based on a choosen band

* Fixed worked-23cm-tag when working with dxlog/n1mm logger

* delete not needed files from repo

## Cluster & QSO of Others
A separate window showing the QSO flow between other stations. Particularly interesting during quieter night-time hours of a contest. This window can be minimised when not needed. Future plan: filtering to stations in your selected QTF.

## Station Map (from v1.41)
An interactive OpenStreetMap-based map showing the geographic position of all active chat members.
**Features:**
- Station markers with callsign labels, coloured by activity and sked state
- Antenna **beam cone** visualisation for the own station
- **Connection line** to the currently selected station
- **Maidenhead grid** overlay (QRA locator grid)
- **Path profile chart**: Terrain elevation cross-section between own station and the selected station, including Fresnel zone analysis and obstruction/horizon detection
- Multiple terrain data sources: **Copernicus GLO-30** (high-resolution DEM), **Open-Meteo API**, synthetic fallback, and **offline DEM import** for air-gapped use
- Aircraft scatter path analysis integrated with the terrain data
The map works in packaged environments (AppImage, Flatpak) without internet access to external CDNs: map tiles are fetched via a local tile proxy, and the Leaflet.js library is bundled inside the application.

## Optimised Message Handling / 30,000 Message Limit (from v1.41)
The internal chat and message tables are capped at **30,000 entries**. Older messages are automatically discarded when the limit is reached. This keeps memory usage and rendering performance stable during multi-day contest operations.
---
## Screen-Aware Window Sizing (from v1.41)
On startup, KST4Contest calculates a screen-aware size for the main window:
- The stored window size from the previous session is used – but **never larger than the current screen**.
- If KST4Contest was last used on a larger monitor, the window is automatically scaled down to fit the current display without clipping.
- The UI layout is more **compact and responsive on smaller screens**, showing the same information in less space.
This prevents unusable oversized windows when switching between machines or monitors.
