DIfferent NavMap question

I was able to make the SP Nomad systems (St01-St03 show up on the Multiplayer main NavMap screen, but I have not been able to get a system view of them. Can it be done and has the answer been posted before? I could not find it.

Ah, that's an exe thing and therefore not legal i'm afraid. Of course you can clone those systems with a different name and slightly offset map position

Anton: I was afraid you were going to say something like that. I tried to find any difference between the INI settings for St01 and the other 4 St0?? systems and could not.

As this is a MP only MOD does anybody know what would happen if I just remaned the systems from St0?? to something else? Is the coding specific to those 4 names or is there something else used as the Ident for those systems?

What do you mean by you could not get a "system view" of those systems?

@Wasabe - he means 'nav map not available' displayed.

*edited out rubbish typed before breakfast & brain actually working

Yeah, should be fine. Rename the jump references etc and all will be well

*edit 2 - and the shortest paths

FYI - Just like Liberty Police being put on your rep sheet when you start, st02 etc are filtered with string refs in the exe not to show details in the system map.

Something else...
For my mod I added a Jumpgate to Omicron Major ( Planet Toledo). Now I want
to make the System visible on the Navmap but don´t know how. Can somebody help me

Look in universe.ini and make visit = 128 into visit = 0 for the system

THNX but wha´t´s with the navmap background. Someone changed it for his own
mod (mod isn´t out now). His Navmap backgound shows the solar system istead of sirius.

Stefan... two threads up from this is as i type is 'break it up'. have you read it?
