Default Assisted Plotting For GWX?

Would the assisted plotting mod from RUB work in GWX? I think this mod is the perfect solution to the "Gods-Eye" F5 map view.

Does anyone know if it would work and where to get it nowadays?

This is my hope as well ... I love the changes in GWX but once I noticed this was not part of the package I quit the mission and came here, looking for an answer

Hey - just wondering if anyone has made this mod compatible with GWX. To be honest this is the only reason I am not currently using GWX at the moment.

Any word of a GWX compatible version? An plans for one in the works?

Thanks in advance,
Church

I have been asking this for awhile Church and nobody seems to know or have it. Odd as I find it the best way to use the help onboard without too much info.

Once I sort out my current bucket of problems and the upcoming official GWX update. (which is delayed as a result of said bucket) I'll look into it. It might have to wait until the final GWX release in the spring... but if we reverse-engineer it and get it done sooner, we can release it as a stand-alone.

I can't give you a hard date.

I'm not finding this mod at Terrapin's site.

Is "Assisted Plotting Mod" its proper title?

Could someone post a link here if they find it?

Also, this could be a larg-ish job if it requires and .shp file for each ship and AI U-boat... I assume aircraft could be left as grey contacts due to their speed...

... and the fact that ya can't shoot 'em with torpedoes! :rotfl:

Damn it was one of mine and I have since lost my old files due to hard drive crash.

I am sure someone can find a copy of it.

Kpt & anyone else,

Feel free to do what you want with this. I have no time for anything lately except work.

Go to your cfg folder located in your data directory and open the contacts.cfg
you will see the following
[ContactSettings]
; Contact settings
Display Range To Opportunity Radio Contacts=300 ;[>0] kilometers
Display Range To Important Radio Contacts=1500 ;[>0] kilometers
Decay Time For Important Radio Contacts=172800 ;[>0] seconds
Decay Time For Opportunity Radio Contacts=32400 ;[>0] seconds
Decay Time For Imprecise Sensor Contacts=600 ;[>0] seconds
Decay Time For Precise Sensor Contacts=0 ;[>0] seconds

Just change the following line
Decay Time For Precise Sensor Contacts=60
To
Decay Time For Precise Sensor Contacts=0
