Questions on Rishi spinner
« on: March 26, 2008, 09:18:45 AM »
A couple questions:

Are these supposed to be separated from the rest of the spinners?  As it stands, I have to fly blindly for a day or two to get to the rest of the spinners after leaving one of these (their only flights are to and from each other).

Is the arena in Yatate spinner complete?  It doesn't seem to be working, but it might require something more than I am doing to activate it.

The shuttle code just check locations within a given distance, if a spinner is too far away from others it wouldn't get service.
You can check a small map of the GH2 space
\"\"


That image is generated by the following R code.

maqui <- rgb(75/255,200/255,212/255)
priva <- rgb(20/255,90/255,130/255)
fcoms <- rgb(238/255,198/255,58/255)
rishi <- rgb(122/255,150/255,150/255)

x<-c(1,7,3,44,40,35,38,33,40,30,35,14,15)
y<-c(1,4,41,45,50,3,48,47,44,1,5,42,38)
factions <- c(maqui,maqui,maqui,maqui,fcoms,fcoms,maqui,fcoms, fcoms,fcoms,priva,rishi,rishi)
flabels <- c("maqui","maqui","maqui","maqui","fcoms","fcoms",   "maqui","fcoms","fcoms","fcoms","priva","rishi","r   ishi")
labels <- c("MaSp","AtSp","CaRo","CeSp","XiSp","GaSp","FuSp"   ,"KoSp","ToSp","EmSp","ThSp","YaSp","GaSp")
plot(x,y,col=factions,bg=factions,pch="*")
plot(x,y,col=factions,bg=factions,pch="*")
text (x,y-1,flabels)
text (x,y+1,labels)

EDIT: Fixed link to correct image

MAQUI,FCOMS,PRIVA,RISHI are the labels used in the game scripts to name: the L5 Council, the Free Commerce States, the Privateer Guild & the Rishiri Dominion (see series\FACTIONS_Default.txt, you can fond the factions colours there too)

The small font ones are just the the 2 first letters of the names of the places (MAquise SPinner, AThera SPinner, CAley ROck...)

The game y coordinates could be reversed in the game (go up/north decreases y value)

Also I want to add that the L5 region is like a donut... I mean, you exit from one side and appear at the opposite.

All this data is from series\ATLAS_L5Region.txt file

Is there a way to zoom out on the world map?

Quoting: Burzmali

Strange. It worked when I tested it first, but I may have broken something since then. I'll see what's going on.

No, not at the moment. One of my ideas was that it wouldn't be possible to zoom out unless you have a spaceship, thereby making getting lost very easy to do.

As I've said plenty of times, the world map navigator needs to be redone. Here's something I just thought of: at shuttle terminals, there should be a transit map which shows the nearby connected cities.

One last thing- the L5 colonies are not yet in their final positions. I have another six or seven major colonies to add before the ring of cities on the outside of the torus is complete.

I never found an arena in Yatate, and I've been using a test character that starts there. Maybe it's just me.

About the colonies not being in finalized positions, you should definitely work on the colonies before the maps.

Ahh I found the answer here, that arena problem I was having I mentioned before. It was in Yatate. So there we go.

 Says there is an Arena guy but when you find him he's just a normal NPC.
