County Map with D/T Filter show not the correct subset

Question

Hi,

I have the impression that the filter of county map are not applied correctly.

please compare the result of the checker (200 counties)

https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCA0QC8/71991

vs. the County map which show all counties as valid with the filter T5 only ...

also ichange for another filter like only Large looks also odd.

Thanks in advance for checking this

Answer 1

This is not a bug, the filters does not change what counties are shown. The filters only change what caches are shown on the map. This is working as intended.

Thanks for the reply.

how in this case identify counties that are not found with a specific cache like T5 or Large?

Manual searchs and notes, GSAK etc. Or ask a challenge script writer nicely, it can probably be done in the checker system.
