SteevyT Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 If I remember correctly, there are 4 different\' display modes for patched conics in the map. However, the descriptions are slightly less than helpful, I just can\'t visualize them. Does anyone have screenshots of the different modes? I\'ll put them in this thread if I get some before others post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endeavour Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I can\'t put up a screenshot, but 1 and 3 are the only useful ones. 1 is the default I believe, so I hope you know what that looks like. And 3 is unbroken and all curvy and pretty. It shows the exact path you follow in space. Its my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteevyT Posted June 10, 2012 Author Share Posted June 10, 2012 Ok, I went through and took pictures of all five modes. Here they are.Mode 1The default mode we are used to.Mode 2Rather than the initial SOI change being connected, it shows the exit being connected. Otherwise it is exactly the same as mode 1.Mode 3Draws path as one connected line. Seems to show path in space relative to largest sphere of influence.Mode 4Um.....I have no idea what to say about it, this is what it looks like though.Mode 5Seems to somehow show paths relative to the ship in its current position. The path the ship takes in the Mun\'s SOI is kind of under the icon for the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanamonde Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Confused newbie here. What is that purple line? Is it something I\'m supposed to have by 'default,' or is it from a mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vexx32 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Also, it\'s NOT in the demo, just the latest version. Any more than 3 patches tends to start to be confusing, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
