KWP 1.0.6 is not loading for me in KSP 1.12.3 on macOS 11.6.2. I've opened an issue on GitHub for this: https://github.com/cmac994/KerbalWeatherProject/issues/3 The TL;DR is that the source hard-codes paths to important files (like the bin files for climatology) using backslash as the path separator character, but macOS and Linux use forward slash: https://blog.benhall.me.uk/2008/08/mono-and-file-paths/ I have very little experience coding for KSP mods, but from what I've been able to gather there's a way to build file paths at runtime using the correct path separator character. I can attempt to create a PR, but I've never been able to successfully compile mod code on macOS.

In other words: "Stop asking for new features, and build them your damn self!" :-P <j/k>

Short of downloading the tiles and stitching them together, not really. I'm reluctant to add an endpoint to the app for that, because it would be a flippin' big image and I don't know what serving it up would do to my bandwidth budget. But it may end up not being a big deal, so I'll think about it. Thanks for this suggestion, too.

Do the texture updates to Jool and Laythe impact the map tiles, or just at the "up-close-as-in-Jeb-is-standing-on-the-surface" level? In other words, do I need to re-extract map tiles for Laythe for use in Kerbal Maps?

I'm using a third-party package to render the maps, and I don't know off the top of my head if it supports a map projection like you're requesting. I'll add it to the list to investigate. Thanks for the suggestion.

The short version: Only if someone asks for it. The longer version: If you don't see it in the "Other features I plan to add" list in the head post of this thread or somewhere on the kanban board, assume that it's never occurred to me. Please request it -- I want this to be useful for everyone, not just me.

I can easily work with the default format. Reformatting text documents is something that I have a lot of experience doing.

I've got the values as extracted by Sigma-Cartographer for both stock and JNSQ, but thank you for the offer.

They're stored in the database at the moment, in a form that's better suited for the app than human eyes. I'm thinking about changing that, but haven't had much time lately to devote to this. If the kittopia dumps are working for you, great.

In the production version (https://kerbal-maps.finitemonkeys.org) or the staging version (https://kerbal-maps-ui-staging.herokuapp.com)? I haven't implemented either biome legends or overlays for the staging version yet. Crud. I just noticed that they're not working in the production version, either. sigh

No worries. I thought this was a feature request.

The tiles generated for level 7 already have aliasing artifacts, so I'm reluctant to add additional zoom levels. However, I'm open to suggestions for improvement. What does zooming in further make easier?

Another quick program update: Kerbal Maps has been updated to 0.5.2 on the staging environment at https://kerbal-maps-ui-staging.herokuapp.com/. I've fixed a few small bugs, added a couple of widgets, and (most importantly) added map tiles for Huygen.

What's with the Dorothy red slippers on Nara, or is that an Easter egg?

A quick program update: Kerbal Maps 0.5.1 is on the staging environment at https://kerbal-maps-ui-staging.herokuapp.com/. This is a near-complete rewrite of the code, so it's something of a reversion, but I'm working on bringing it back up to feature parity with the production version. Feel free to poke and prod, and please report any issues you encounter to https://github.com/FiniteMonkeys/kerbal-maps-ui/issues (note this is different than the URL in the post at the head of this topic), via DM, or as a reply in this topic. Many thanks to everyone who has helped out with this update.

https://kerbal-maps-ui-staging.herokuapp.com/ This isn't the final URL, so be warned if you bookmark it. Kerbal Maps v0.5.1 is a near-total rewrite of the app, so there are some things that still haven't been ported over from the production version, including latitude and longitude grid markers search overlays a legend for the biome map (Come to think of it, I'm not sure all of those are working in the production version, either.) Those of you who are familiar with the bodies in JNSQ: please browse through the maps to see if they look right. Everyone: please poke around, and let me know of anything you find that doesn't work the way you think it should. If you have a GitHub account, the most efficient way to report an issue is by creating one at https://github.com/FiniteMonkeys/kerbal-maps-ui/issues. Otherwise, please feel free to DM me here or (assuming the topic owners are okay with it) add a reply to this topic. I'll be posting news of this to the Kerbal Maps topic soon, so you'll be able to report issues there as well. If possible, please wait until after I've announced it, so as not to cause too much confusion. A big thank you goes out to @RowBear for contributing time and CPU cycles to extract the map tiles, and @JadeOfMaar, @Galileo, @Sigma88, and anyone else I might be forgetting for assistance with JNSQ and the tooling used in Kerbal Maps.

I added initial support for this to Kerbal Maps some time last year. I'll make sure it gets carried forward in the new version so it's available for all planet packs.

Maps for all celestial bodies in JNSQ (well, except for Huygen, apparently) have been extracted, and I'm updating the Kerbal Maps code to support multiple planet packs as free time allows.

Wait, Lindor has a new moon named Huygen? When did that happen?

What is the latitude and longitude of the default launch location on Kerbin in JNSQ?

Thanks for all your work, @RowBear.

At your convenience, could you PM me the body/lat/long of the things you'd like to see added as points of interest, or point me to where I can find them myself? (I found the GameData/JNSQ/JNSQ_Configs/KK directory in the git repository, but that may be finer-grained than I need (lotsa config files in each subdirectory) and I don't know which ones are supposed to be commonly-known and which should be spoilers.)

Are there any objects/locations in JNSQ that you'd like to see added to Kerbal Maps? KSC (or its equivalent) should probably be in there, as well as any other publicly-known locations (other space centers, ground stations, etc.). I'm thinking about adding a "show spoilers" switch and adding anomalies/Easter eggs as well. There are plans to make it so you can add your own points of interest, but for now I need to add them globally.

It's coming to Kerbal Maps (https://kerbal-maps.finitemonkeys.org/). Graphics for all of the bodies in JNSQ are currently being extracted and uploaded, and I'll be enabling planet pack switching soon.

I only said that because I didn't want someone claiming half of the JNSQ system then extracting maps on something with the power of a Commodore 64. :-) That's impressive turnaround. What kind of hardware are you running on?
