[SCRIPT] X3 TC / AP / XRM / XTC Universe Colored Map Version 3.1 dd 17-dec-2013

[Lorenzo]

Yep, opening menu is in English, as is everything else. This is the Steam version, the install language is selected in one of the menus.

I tried to start a new game, then activated the scripts, the scripts are available from the menus - they were not before "Thereshallbewings".

Just to show off my ignorance, where should the *modified* thingy appear? I have access to the scrips, but I can't see the modified string.

modified tag can be found by pressing ingame twice on the letter ''p''
(its under pilot information and then scrolling all the way down).

Anyways i have been testing the scripts on a clean vanilla game with steam
and found the problem. Pls download the ''X3 AP Universe Colored Map 3.1''
from https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=fae3da27 ... F440%21105
and extract with winrar in your addon folder .. its okay to overwrite files.
It will add an extra md file in your director folder called''mdfiles.txt'' which should fix the problem.

Pls try it out and let me know if it works.

note : no need to activate this script via ''Therewillbewings'' method.. it gets
actived through MD (Mission Directive) automatically.

it works! and I found the modified tag
I don't understand why this isn't a standard feature of the game
thanks qwizzie

some sector names have a first grey letter - these are the only sectors that are searchable

I'm glad it works and i'm also glad you like it.
With regard to the searcheable sectors, i made a select number of sectors (mostly those with shipyards in it) searchable with first letter. I tried to uncolor all sectors for the first letter once and really didnt like how that looked both on the universemap and in the property owned menu so i kept it with just some sectors.

Its also mentioned on the first post (for X3 AP users) :

''X3 AP has implemented a search method which allow you to search by typing in letters in a box. This wont work with this script, it does not regnonice colored sectornames. You can only search jump with the uncolored letters and then click through to the sector you need as above described for X3 TC.

tip : pressing <-- arrow will get you out of the text field of the universemap, pressing one of the arrow keys again let you navigate further in the universemap''

Great work.

Would it be possible to remove the "lines" connecting the sectors and squeeze the whole galaxy on one screen? I'd like to be able to select any sector in the galaxy as a destination, with 1 quick click, without having to use keys to scroll or search for name. Idea is to keep my right hand on the mouse/stick.

Connectivity between sectors could be indicated through a horizontal, or vertical green bar, no connection = black bar.

you mean a square galaxy map ?

take a look at this post from Sunblade :

[MOD][TC/AP]Flat Galaxy Map / Square Galaxy Map v1.5 (2013-07-21)

I know XRM has the square galaxy map already in their mod, but if your
not playing XRM i guess you can try one of these as seperate mod.

Hey guys,
script looks cool but the problem with no searching is a bit frustrating for me.

I am playing XRM+AP English language ,latest.

Can someone upload the solution that the 3 or 4 first letters are searchable????
I read the whole thread the links are down..
thank you.

[ASSTEROIDS]

Yeah, I tried to PM the 2 people who made the modification to no avail.

Too bad, the ability to search is more important to me than a colored map.

I was using h20.aVa's Dynamic Color Sector Names script, and deleted it to install this instead (I wanted the Hub to be called Xenon Hub, this script supposedly does that.) However, after installing this script, this is what my sector map looks like: http://imgur.com/a/OmNG5
Any idea why sectors are unnamed?

Edit: Deleted this and reinstalled h20.avas script, sector names are colored and named again.

Can you please reupload the MOD?
