Everything's working as needed now thanks so much for the amazing support

We found and fixed the problem.
The new version is already available through the built-in update system.

OnlineMapsGoogleAPIQuery query = OnlineMapsFindDirectionAdvanced.Find(_startExperienceDestinationMapMarker.position, _yourLocationMapMarker.position, OnlineMapsFindDirectionMode.walking);

Just realized I'm getting a 400 Bad Request. What do you think this can be caused by? Am I supposed to be setting an API key?

I just checked it.
Everything works well.

Please show your code (how you use it).
I will check it.

Since I've updated, I'm getting this error when calling Google Directions API:

OH! But this exists: GetCenterPointAndZoom!

Sorry for the monologue

And you should think about making OnlineMapsMarkerBase, OnlineMapsMarker, and OnlineMapsMarker3D interfaces so that MonoBehaviours can implement them manually.

Also, you should think of namespacing your code base.

Thank you for the update. I've got everything working now.
Do you think more effort should be put into making the custom prefab engine more space in your engine? For example, I definitely need to use this engine for making the map nice and interactive. I would like to use this engine and also make use of methods like GetCenterPointAndZoom but now that I'm not using my custom markers I can't use it. I can inherit from OnlineMapsMarker but then the notion of Texture is inherent in that class. Do you think an extra class that comes somewhere between OnlineMapsMarkerBase and OnlineMapsMarker would be handy in order to make the custom engine usable out of the box? I will more than likely have to make modifications to your code in order for stuff to work on our side. Is that ok?
Cheers,
Paul

How to open the built-in update system:
img1 - The usual way (img1). Some users do not have this item. Unfortunately, I do not know why. So in Online Maps v2.4.0.11+ we moved it into GameObject (img3).
img2 - Alternative way.

About invoice number:
Thank you for reporting this.
The problem was an invalid character in the description of the last update.
The problem is fixed. You can use it.

First problem:
Can't find the Check Updates method anywhere so I had to create an Editor method that calls it manually hehe Was this fixed in latest version?

When I enter the Invoice Number (just numbers) I'm getting:

a name did not start with a legal character 32 ( ) Line 4, position 54.
UnityEngine.Debug:Log(Object)
OnlineMapsXML:Load(String) (at Assets/Infinity Code/Online maps/Scripts/XML/OnlineMapsXML.cs:596)
OnlineMapsUpdater:GetUpdateList(String) (at Assets/Infinity Code/Online maps/Scripts/Editor/OnlineMapsUpdater.cs:180)
OnlineMapsUpdater:CheckNewVersions() (at Assets/Infinity Code/Online maps/Scripts/Editor/OnlineMapsUpdater.cs:51)
OnlineMapsUpdater:OnGUI() (at Assets/Infinity Code/Online maps/Scripts/Editor/OnlineMapsUpdater.cs:227)
UnityEditor.DockArea:OnGUI()

When I enter the same number but with two letters in caps in front of it I'm getting a message saying it's an invalid invoice.

Suggestions?

Cheers

Sorry, I do not see what you are using Online Maps v2.3.

Please update Online Maps through the built-in update to the latest beta version.
Component / Infinity Code / Online Maps / Check Updates
or
Online Maps Inspector / Help / Check Updates.

Additionally in Online Maps v2.4 we highly optimized code.
Your project will work faster and use less memory.

Hey there Alex,

Sorry for having attached a full project... didn't think first. Won't do it again.

Thanks for the rapid response! You guys are awesome.

However, the new code isn't compiling correctly more than likely because you're on a dev branch with extra stuff in OnlineMaps. Here are the errors that are coming up:

Assets/Infinity Code/Online maps/Examples (API usage)/uGUI/uGUICustomMarkerEngineExample.cs(109,17): error CS1061: Type `OnlineMaps' does not contain a definition for `projection' and no extension method `projection' of type `OnlineMaps' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Cheers,

Paul

Hello.

The problem was in Screen Space - Camera.
The latest version of the example is attached.

P.S. Please do not attach the project with Online Maps scripts here. I'll remove it.
If you want to send us a complete project, write to support (support@infinity-code.com).
