Distances

Post by Hans Olo »

Is there an OXP that tells you how close an object is on your compass? I think it would be very useful to be able to tell wether it is faster to get to a station or the Sun to refuel. I was thinking it could tell you somewhere on the interface or get a message every time you toggle the Advanced Space Compass.

If this OXP doesn't exist, could it? Would it be difficult for someone with very little programming experience (like myself) to make?
