I just hope SHIV has something like that implemented. Considering that they have already included longitude & latitude grids, it might be possible..
Is the numbers on the SHIII map hard-coded?
I remember that thread, he was supposed to make us a celestial chart. Wasn't that at UBI ? I want to say Bootsmann did that, but I maybe wrong.
Hmmm...you might be right....This have to be investigated...:hmm:

Edit: here is the Subsim forum post about this;
