[IDEA] New Scanner mode

Post by NewtSoup »

It's really nice that the detail window now doubles as a scanner and we can use keybinds to switch between radar and detail and between radar modes.

I see on the local radar in mode 1 it shows the sector ecliptic plane and ships local to the skunk. In mode 2 it shows the old top down view of the sector centered on the skunk

I'd like to see in a 3rd mode, similar to 1. The ecliptic plane of the skunk and then old "elite style" ships, cargo canisters and "long range pinged" echoes on stalks relative to the skunk.

Assuming this is now possible of course?

Also zoom ranges on the radar would be nice which I am positive would be possible

Of course if there is already a mod that does some or all of these things please turn up the flame accompanied with an appropriate link :).

If replies are on the "well get in there and do it yourself" vein, then sure, I have no experience modding this game so please provide useful tips on how it might be accomplished.
