nav-map patrol path compatibility

[verossiraptor]

heyy guys, i was looking at my nav-map there, was just wondering if it was possible to make the zones and patrol paths come up green/white/red as they would on a SP game???

that would be cool.

[verossiraptor]

that would be cool.

ha, yea, i think it would be great. would help a lot considering everything on the nav-map shows up as white.... or not at all.


maybe it would be a coding nightmare, i've no idea. would be nice tho

would be indeed. I would even go for white only for those system that have non.. and many got no path's at all.

Would be nice but what is it really good for? Discovery is about RP not PvE. The only thing I use patrol paths for is seeking the locations of hidden bases and Jumpholes.

yea, i suppose you're right..... but it would be nice.... probably not worth the effort in coding it...

all zones are white because we use ID and faction diplomacy to check who is red or green. the zones colours are connected to rep chart that not always matches to real situation. some zones are owned by player factions and even if is green, the access is restricted.
if you play this game for longer, you know location of every jh or base, and almost everyone uses flcompanion or datastorm.

yea, i guess you're right... it was only a suggestion.


thanks for the feedback anyway!

It's definitely not a bad suggestion, but it's one we aren't able to solve. It's just a FL thing, having all the patrol paths white in multiplayer. It may be adjustable somewhere inside the game files, but we don't know where.

Pardon my noobishness, but what is/are flcompanion and/or datastorm?
