---------------------------


[ external image ] Description


I was tired of cheating with my printed map next to me, but didn't want to be completely lost. So I made this !
(also a perfect script to go along with X-Achievements)


[ external image ] [ external image ] [ external image ]




[ external image ] Features
  • A subtitle-based GPS that will indicate what is the next sector to your destination and show how far it is.
  • The GPS requires an Explorer Command Software in your current ship.
  • The GPS will not target the gate you need to go through. You will have to search it yourself.
[ external image ] Installation


Copy the content of the archive into your AP ...x3tc\addon folder or in x3tc if you play TC.

Please report any bug and spelling/grammatical mistakes.

You can do everything you want with this script.

  • The GPS is free and all maps are accessible from the start.
  • The GPS is part of the Explorer Command Software and requires it.
  • Better non-loop menus, no more reminder option (it was useless).
  • Distance between your sector and your destination is shown (in jumps).

Why can't I put the title in UPPER case ... ?

"[SCRIPT] [x3TC/AP] - X-GPS - (23/12/2013)" works
"[SCRIPT] [X3TC/AP] - X-GPS - (23/12/2013)" does not

Weird voodoo on this forum...

wow, this might be useful. shame Egosoft won't update bonus pack, there have been many good non-cheaty mods/scripts recently.

wonder why...

make sure you add your scripts to community library. it will make it easier for people to find them :)

you need to make an appropriate post here http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=229421

Hi!
Great idea there, but how about a littly bittly more details about how to use this script?
I AM dumb, that much we know, but for the sake of me I can't figure out what this hotkey is supposed to be or how to set it, if I must.
Yes, of course I enabled the plugin in AL settings. Besides, it's appearing already even before I modify the game with the thereshallbewings thing...is that normal?
Well anyway, once I enable it, it says "X-GPS has added a new hotkey"...yeah, right. Where?
Checked the controls menu, nothing there. Ship commands and additional commands, nothing there. Community plugin configurator, nothing there.
Started a brand new game with just this script and cycrow's cheats, cheated in all ship addons and loads of cash and again the explorer AND navigation software, just for good measure, but still nothing changes.

Now, I don't even want to use this script anymore, but I HAVE to know how to enable/use it. This is driving me crazy!!! Please! I HAVE TO KNOW!!!
