that would really be great, but from what i've read in the forums and seen in the scripts there is no way of modifying the galaxymap atm :-[

Hello together, found something interesting in the overview for keybindings: DebugScript (default key: F4) For me, just nothing happens when pressing F4 :( But that function sounds too usefull for modders ... Anyone managed to get that working or knows whats exactly behind that feature??

Hello, i think its a really good idea to make up a "knowledge base" like you intended until modding gets more officially supported (by complete and informative documentation and wiki stuff)! But we should either have some kind of main post to collect all information or at least agree on some sort of layout and formatting so people can find info fast and easy, what do you think? And, since its good practise nowadays, how about setting up a Discord server for the Avorion modding community? I always liked the idea of being able to find modding fellows easily and get my questions out fast ;)

Hello together, i just wanted to give you the little mod i made for this lovely game, hopefully someone finds it as usefull as i did :D DESCRIPTION: This mod delivers you two commands which can be used to display the distance of the player to certain locations, measured in sectors. Those locations can either be the center/core of the galaxy, the home sector of the player or a user-defined sector. This may be usefull for different things like finding Boss Swoks ;) or planning some trading- and jump-routes... Note: I know there is already a mod with similar functionality, but i didnt know before beginning to create this one and i am still posting because it has more features ... funnily enough the mod creator had the same intention to find Swoks with his mod in the first place ;D FEATURES: Commands: /showdist Shows distance of player to defined location in chat window. Usage: /showdist center /showdist home /showdist home <PLAYER> /showdist sector <XXX:YYY> /showdist sector <XXX:YYY> <NAME> /showdistjump Shows distance to registered locations after each jump as notifications. You can register multiple locations which will all be shown after jumps! Usage: /showdistjump center /showdistjump home /showdistjump home <PLAYER> /showdistjump sector <XXX:YYY> /showdistjump sector <XXX:YYY> <NAME> /showdistjump off Parameters: <PLAYER> = name or index of existing player <XXX:YYY> = coordinates value (like "321:456" or "12:-34") <NAME> = name value (like "Trade1" or "SomeSector", no spaces) INSTALLATION: Download ZIP for latest release from GitHub and extract it to <Avorion>\data\ directory, like with other mods. No vanilla script files will be overwritten, so there should be no problem with other mods or file changes due to game updates! Multiplayer: This mod is server-side only, so no files have to be installed on clients for multiplayer games. Changelog: v0.4 - added possibility to show/register distance to any existing player's home-sector - fixed problem with negative and reversed coordinates - the /showdistjump command now remembers registered locations over saves and loads (you must use the /showdistjump off command now to get rid of the notifications!) v0.3 - added possibilty to also define a name for user-defined sectors - improved output of /help showdist and /help showdistjump commands - minor changes and code comments =) v0.2 - added possibility to register multiple user-defined sectors with /showdistjump command Feedback: Feel free to post feedback, bugs and feature suggestions if you like, I was having fun developing this and would really like to continue on it :)
