rragan Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 For non-owned caches that need maintenance, the map icon is different and the list entry shows a strikethrough. For my own cache which needs maintenance, there is no distinguishing from the map icon or the list entry that it is in this state. I think they ought to be treated the same.

Bolling Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I've never noticed what you are referring to for Needs Maintenance caches, only for Disabled caches. Your cache is not disabled. If you disable it until you check on it, it will have the other icon and strikethrough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rragan Posted June 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Got it. Would it be useful to have a small indicator on the map popup and the list entry flagging Needs Maintenance? It might alert me to try a different one when I'm in a hurry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would only be able to do that if I loaded full caches and that NM log is one of the last 30 logs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rragan Posted June 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I just disabled my cache -- container gone. List now has a strike through. Map icon is unchanged. I guess the CO should know if their cache is disabled but if you can figure out some art to X out an owned disabled cache, things would be uniform. Showing NM if in last 30 logs would likely be fine. If truly NM, there may be some DNFs but likely not 30 of them before the reviewer moves it to needs Archive or people just stop coming.
