Map Presets

A number of map presents may be defined, grouping the following commands:

Map selection
Visual Centerpoint does not affect radar range
Zoom level

New for 2.0.5

Presets may be all combined into a single file, or we recommend you group them in separate files. All preset files must be located in the fir/presets/ directory.
