Classicbattletech.com Forum and here is a link to the file. Here are some excerpts on how to use it:
EDIT: The forum link apparently doesn't work anymore, the crazy mods on the forums probably deleted or moved it or something.
- E/Shift-E moves between eras
- + or numpad + = zoom in
- - or numpad - = zoom out
- Up/Down/Right/Left or Num8/Num2/Num4/Num7 = Pan
- Backspace = Center
- Escape = Exit (I think)
- CTRL-P = Find jump path (spell planet names correctly!)
- P or U?= Show/Hide current jump path
- C = Show/hide comstar logo overlay
- J = Show/hide jump radius
- CTRL-F = Find system
- N/P = cycles through all systems that matched from CTRL-F
- Right click (sometimes you have to do it twice) takes you to a sarna.net entry for that planet (if it exists) and escape closes that window
- If you left click on a planet it'll center it, and if you don't move the mouse at ALL it'll just show you other systems within 9pc) - its flakey
Haven't worked on this in a while, it was initially just a test for some ways to do a succession wars type 4X game, project just grew a bit :)
Just found this blog. As I'm about to prepare a campaign fpr my fellow gamers I was excited to find a calculator at last but the planets aren't complete. Has somebody completed it?
ReplyDeleteThere are more updated lists you can use on the forums at http://bg.battletech.com/forums/index.php/topic,9578.0.html.
ReplyDeleteHowever, until Handbook House Kurita comes out we simply don't have a complete map in all the eras, and only some eras are totally complete.
