I just noticed you guys added the border crossing resource to maps that has a gate for the icon. I have been wondering for a while if a gate resource was going to be added. This is a little different than a border crossing I think. Quite often when I go out overlanding I run into a gate that I didn't know was going to be there. Sometimes it's open, sometimes they are closed. Maybe I should've said something in here earlier but I had forgotten the idea until I saw the gate icon for the border crossing resource. I think it would be very useful to add just a general gate resource that could have information about weather the gate is closed seasonally (and the dates it opens/closes) or permanently or just the type you can open yourself as long as you close it behind you. Stuff like that would be very useful to someone like myself that often chooses to take the path less traveled and often get stopped by a gate. As for the icons, it might be better to have a toll booth looking icon for border crossing and the gate icon for gate. Then again maybe the toll booth would be a good icon for a toll roads resource.
