Also, it's been a while since I messed with it, but I seem to remember being pretty clear on the fact that the ANC OXP would change default behavior as an immersion element, and actually purchasing the ANC in-game item yielded the benefits.

A small but important update for the MWA - now, if the system you're in has gone nova, an "Emergency alignment" protocol will engage that means you won't need to align to a beacon to jump. You might take some damage at the other end, though.

I've also create a [EliteWiki] wiki page for the OXP as well. Because reasons. :D

Initiating a jump from interstellar space:

Code: Select all

Exception: TypeError: targetPosVector is undefined
    Active script: Deep_Horizon_Adv_Nav_Comp 1.0.4
    Deep_Horizon_Adv_Nav_Comp_World.js, line 354:
    	var v = targetPosVector.subtract(player.ship.position).direction();
I realize this isn't that OXP, but since you're overriding parts of it, maybe you can also patch this one?

I can certainly patch it, but at the moment I can't reproduce it. What were the conditions at the time? Where were you, and what was your target system?

I think I was between Esbeus and Xexedi jumping to Xexedi. However, after reporting this I jumped out of interstellar space again and didn’t get this error, so it seems to be more subtle than I originally thought. I think the first time I chained a couple of misjumps, if that makes a difference.

Finally gave this a try and I think it's great. Well done!

However, what with my being the tinkering sort that I am, I did find one minor annoyance and have a suggestion...

The 'directions' for aligning with the target are a little clunky IMHO and I thought that an obvious alternative might be to use the compass (a "H" target perhaps?). If the compass requires an actual target then you could 'fake' a tiny beacon at some inordinate distance for it to 'lock on' to.

As it is, I find it like a slightly annoying 'mini-game' before one gets to a really well made and immersive piece of presentation.

Maybe others will disagree with my opinion on that but in any case it's a great idea, well made.
Thanks.

Yes, on the root URL but not http://deephorizonindustries.com/default.html or the others.

Thanks, young'un! Got what I wanted - if it's still playing up tomorrow, I'll email him.

Sorry for the digression, phkb, but it seemed like an appropriate thread, as it reminded me of Cheyd's Emergency Witchspace Initiator.

All good. I don’t mind the occasional digression!

You get that experience after you purchase the ASC. Before that, and always in Interstellar space, you get the messages instructing alignment.

Hi, I got this error in Trunk and it's never appeared before and I've played a lot lately.

Code: Select all

20:09:03.320 [script.javaScript.exception.unexpectedType]: ***** JavaScript exception (ManualWitchspaceAlignment 2.6): TypeError: targetPosVector is undefined
Just the one line, that's it. :wink:
