What's new — April 2026

A month focused on the loadplan step and interactive editing.

Loadplan

• A new checkbox in the items table on step 4 to keep track of what has been loaded.
• Dragging a row in workspace now moves the whole group of holds, not just the clicked row.

Rules

• Minimize mixing now has rest-pallet behaviour.
• Overhang tolerance is now relative to the hold size, so it scales sensibly.

3D viewer

• A first look at exploded view — see cargo separated out for inspection. (More polish arrives in May.)
• Smaller mouse moves the closer you are to an object, for finer placement.
• Snap-grid, pallet colour and pallet opacity fixes.

Workspace

• A new stack iterator setting for how the solver iterates through stack options.
• Pretty snackbars everywhere, with better visibility.
• Items table more compact in compact mode.

Safety

• Deleting all cargo now requires more deliberate confirmation.

Maps

• Switched the map provider under the hood from Mapbox and Carto to MapLibre and OpenFreeMap — maps are now served from open-source tiles.

For API integrations

• A new webhook logs view so you can inspect what Cargo-Planner is calling your side with.

Fixes worth mentioning

• Excel import respects the dimensions on your template, with backwards compatibility.
• More frontend validation for cargo before anything hits the server.
