Recent change(s) to tar1090. Is this expected behaviour?

    Hello
    I'm not sure if this falls into the realm of bug or not hence my question.
    Platform :W10x64
    Browsers tried: Firefox 87.0 (64-bit), Brave
    Version 1.21.77 Chromium: 89.0.4389.90 (Official Build) (64-bit)

    Steps: Open https://globe.adsbexchange.com/
    Select an aircraft displayed on the map. URL now includes "/?icao=" suffix along with the ICAO
    De-select the aircraft using the "X" in the top-left of the screen next to the loaded photograph and info of the aircraft.
    Select a new aircraft from the map
    URL now ADDs the newly selected aircraft's ICAO to the "/?icao=" above. i.e. the icao of the previously selected aircraft remains part of the URL and is not removed.
    Repeat several times and you have a URL that looks like: "https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=7c4ef2,7c4ee8,76cd10,7c5dc1,7c4a25,7c4ef4" (This is a cut n paste from my Firefox right now)

    To be clear I do not have "M" selected on the map and multiple aircraft are not being selected.

    Note: As I keep my PI in lock step with the version of tar1090 from git, I am observing this as well on the tar1090 that is being served directly out of my pi - example "http://10.1.1.26/tar1090/?icao=7c72d4,76cd10"

    I cannot be certain when this first started occurring, I'm going to guess around 210322 but maybe earlier

    As I said, not clear if this is intended behaviour or not.
    Thanks

    Can't reproduce right now.

    But yes i was working on that logic.

    Edit: Oh the X i never use ... yeah i'll fix it...

    You can just click anywhere on the map to deselect ....

    Being able to show multiple aircraft for a certain day and time period was added.
    That required some code changes which messed up the logic.
    Still not certain how to do it in a way that's more easily to keep consistent.

    Neither restricting the time nor showing multiple aircraft in the history function was possible before, now it is:
    https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?ica...race=2021-03-25&startTime=00:10&endTime=00:12

    This is very nice to look at airprox encounters and it's generally very nice if you want to show something very specific.
