[Release] Navigation MFD

[spara]

Done. New version (1.8 ) is up.

* Nova system recognized correctly. (TL0 and no gov or eco)
* Brackets around the unit on planet/sun distance line.



Thanks Cody. Keep 'em ideas rolling, it's getting better all the time .

What? Has Lave gone nova too? <grins>

Nova system recognized correctly. (TL0 and no gov or eco)

No planet either - should the nova system's planet distance be asterisked?

Poor Lave, it has paid the ultimate cost many times today .

Another good point. Fixed in 1.8.1.

Thanks... that works fine!

hello to all...

...I don,t know if there is a link between the background stars/nebula issue I have and the navigation mfd, but I had stars for about the last 24 hrs and in that time I got the combat and navigation mfd, nice addons. at the end I got blowd up pretty good, pod took me to the station. got my ship back and reloaded with goods. left the station and had no stars nor the navigation mfd, had the combat mfd though.

I'm not trying to change subject, just looking for answers. also, not able to paste my logs here for ya to look at, any ideas...?

You should be able to C&P the log - what's the trouble?

<scratches head> I've no idea why that is.

[Disembodied]

Maybe it's too long? Can you c&p anything at all? If so, can you c&p half of the log, and break it down over two posts?

[Cody]

I'll post this here (It may be caused by me testing the Rift OXP in interstellar space):

Damn forum formatting playing-up again.

@spara I don't know if this is still being maintained, but here is a small feature request: when using this OXP together with the Torus To Sun, the Estimated Travel Time is wrongly calculated. At every refresh moment, the Estimated Travel Time value is shown as the time that the ship would take with a regular torus (1x) regardless of the current torus multiplier. Would it be possible to somehow compensate for that? Here is Norby's reply concerning the speed calculation.

Phkb has kindly fixed some issues, updated and adopted this OXP. The new version is available from the manager.

Just a quick note on what's in the v1.9.0 update. I fixed a couple of issues in Interstellar space, and I also added a new feature, where you can change the units used on all the distances, from OU to km to m. You'll need the Library OXP to change the setting.

Wiki says:

Distance from WP to planet in target system, distance from planet to sun in target system

Shouldn't the latter part be: distance from WP to sun? Or has something changed?

As I originally planned, target system info now includes the length of two important lanes: WP to planet and WP to sun.

A small update to this OXP. Basically, this fixes an issue where sometimes, if another OXP cancels a witchjump in the playerStartedJumpCountdown world event, the "playerCancelledJumpCountdown" worldevent could actually fire before the playerStartedJumpCountdown in this OXP (and any other OXP that is using both events).

I also added Cavezzi as a display unit. You're welcome, Cholmondely.
