Well, table sets it's own marker at the exact position of the MRH marker. I sadly can not help you if MRH somehow is not working correctly. Maybe try another map.

I have a problem I think "Seb's Brefing Table" marker is stuck at 0,0,0 position, i tried moving satellite position but every time I generated 3D Terrain it's only generated at 0,0,0 position. Any idea how to fixed it PS. sry for bad english

I don't know how you did that, but that's awesome, great work!

Due to every map having a different height it can happen that the terrain is generated below the object. To fix that just simply move the terrain up one or two times (or more if needed).

So Ive set it to generate the 3d texture and then... nothing appears on the table There any other steps after activating the Satellite and turning the table on Im missing

Sadly due to this being just a composition and not a mod everything is handled inside the object init. And therefore needs to be placed in the Editor.

Although you can copy and use the script in a ingame console while looking at the object.
you just have to replace "this" with "cursorObject" for it to work.
note: if you don't use "execVM" then it will only be visible for you.

Looks great! im playing antistasi ultimate. Where do i find the table in zeus mode, like in game, because i cant edit the mission/mod

Hi, just here to say that an ace free version sounds great!
Miss Heda  [author] 17 Mar, 2024 @ 12:25pm 
Yes, it certainly is possible!
Although it would require a bit of time to rewrite it so if there are more people wanting a ace free version I'll do it. For the moment tho I don't really see the sense in it.

Love this, its a great idea! Messed around with it and had some fun.
Question, any chance of making a non ace dependent version? Is that possible?

@Zzombi

Currently it only supports the satellite from MRH.

How it works:
In detail on how it gets the correct position is that it checks for the marker MRH sets on the map. Then if it finds one it initializes it's own marker (it creates a invisible one) that it moves around to the exact position of the MRH marker when you press "Generate Satellite 3D Terrain". Due to UAV not setting a marker it won't work without modifying my script.

A way you can get it to work:
You could use allMapMarkers [community.bistudio.com] to get all current map markers and then inside the init switch "SateliteMapMarker" (or how MRH calls it exactly) with the one you want it replaced with. Also make sure to remove the setMarkerDir [community.bistudio.com] part out of the script so that the direction is not set from the satellite.

Does it work with any UAV, or with the Satelitte only?

ahhh okay, i was unaware of that. thank you for the info i'll give this ago.

The table grabs the marker from the satellite immediately when it there.
Initializing the satellite is not the job of this table. Just put a table with a simple laptop near my table and check mark the "is satellite control" checkbox in the objects attributes.

Otherwise I could aromatically call the turn on script from MRH but then it would initialize every laptop & screen on the map and I think that would annoy people.

Just a note to add, the table won't automatically generate. you need to have the small satellite antennae spawned and a player with the Universal Tactical Display tablet in their inventory to get it to initialize the satellite script.

Would you be able to make a quick update to include the satellite antennae nearish the table?

Otherwise, this is a great comp that's great for Scifi groups to use.
