Planet Map 3D

Version 1.3.2

DESCRIPTION

[hr][/hr] This program creates a 3 dimensional representation of planets and waypoints as well as the position and heading of your ship, and projects them to a designated Display Surface. Works both with regular text panels as well as screens built into cockpits, seats, and other terminal blocks.

The script can display previously charted locations (see VANILLA PLANETS and POINTS OF INTEREST below), or it can also be used to map the locations of hitherto uncharted planets. This feature is essential for modded planets and custom worlds.

You can find a Demo Ship for the script here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2289095907

FEATURES

[hr][/hr] NEW FEATURES!!!

GPS BATCH CAPTURE GPS coordinates can now be input into a tagged LCD block for quick capture of multiple coordinates. [olist] [*] Rename desired LCD blocks to include the Import Tag (Default: [Import] )

[*] Run the command IMPORT_WAYPOINTS.

[*] The same command can be run replacing WAYPOINTS with any of the other marker types, such as ASTEROIDS so that all newly logged waypoints will appear as that type. [/olist]

CYCLE WAYPOINT TYPE The currently selected waypoint on any map screen can be quickly cycled through the different marker types. [olist] [*] In any map, navigate to the desired waypoint, either by using the Context Menu (see guide), or by running the NEXT_WAYPOINT command.

[*] Run the command CYCLE_TYPE <#> where <#> is the map number. The map number is optional, and will default to map 0.

[*] Repeat the command until the Waypoint has been changed to the desired marker type.

[/olist]

QUICK SET-UP

[hr][/hr] [olist] [*]Load this script on a programmable block. [*]Put the tag "[MAP]" in the name of the block where you want the map to be displayed. If the block has multiple screens you can change which screen displays the map by going into the programmable block's Custom Data field and changing the "MAP_Index" field. [*]It's recommended to map at least the basic movement and mode commands to desired hotkey bars. [*](optional) Paste "Vanilla" planet and waypoint data into the custom data field of the programmable block. (See below). [*](optional) Add the tag "[Map Data]" to the name field of a block that you want to have the Data Display screen. This display page will give details about planets, waypoints, and the map screen itself. (See section 'Data Display Pages' below). [/olist]
