Shorlen, that setup you made seems sweet. I gotta get something like that. Normally when I am online I am on a comp that I am to lazy to fix the IE problem I have so I roam around aetherspace with no maps. An autopilot setup like that would be so useful. smile.gif

Are these the 'official' coordinates or a custom system based off your own maps? If official.. how do you get them?


When Aetherspace first came out, Shorlen tried to make that coordinate system (which was made up independantly by several people at once) "official," meaning, universally used. Don't think it worked.

The system is that the Aetherplex is (0, 0) for aetherspace, and to the right is (+1, 0), and to the up is (0, +1). The (0, 0) point for all other spaces is the rift back to aetherspace.

You step up to the command chair, locking yourself into the module and linking

your mind to the controls of the ship. After a moment, you begin to sense your
command of the module in your own brain.
(Ship): Lei'sianti says, "Welcome to the command chair, Shorlen."


Lei'sianti is docked at the Aetherplex Chamber.
Currently located at aether in aetherspace.

Current location: ( 0 by 0 ) in aetherspace
Current dock: aether



Prompt while moving:

My destlist from the aetherplex:

From aether, you may reach the following locations:
seren ( -61, 85 )
facility ( -216, -43 )
frost ( -192, 145 )
dramube ( 246, 115 )
candy ( 72, -230 )

To get to any listed destination, travelto the location.


Everything of course with nifty colours.
