The Ghraphical Map..... ADMIN please read

[kandos-]

Now, this game is one of the only games that i know of that has a ghraphical map.

however i think it could become even more useful.......

1. the coordinate lines could be made REALLY clear, like in white or somthing, so it is easier to "get your bearings" in the galaxy...
   
   
2. the map already has a centre the map on this point function, but i was wondering if you could be able to type in one or two coords which are displayed by a dot, or cross of some sort...
   
   
3. a virtual probe would be pretty good, so you say you choose a dsp and say what coords to put it, it creats a bubble on the map of the range of the dsp, so you can work out distances and coordinate attacks easier...
   
   
4. a bubble round all probes, range that you have and that you know of...
   
   
5. and a cross or blob where the map is focused on...
   

i am not sure of how much scripting this would involve but any of these changes would be really good i think...

waht does every one else think, and admin can you please reply with your thoughts...

I would suggest a blue line showing the trejectory of fleets scanned upn a dsp and then you should be given a list of the possible planets that the fleet is travelling to.
These are really good suggestions Kandos. I like them alot.

maybe some of the features are already possible with the scripts, you can include into the map:

the downloadlink is in the 3d-map-page

if you program a good script, we will add it to the scripts page
