Simple compass (only working on planets) and map

Because we spend a lot of time on the ground in survival.


we could do with some basic navigation tools.

Compass and planet map would help a LOT!


Keep up the amazing work!

Make the artificial horizon more prominent and add the compass markers to that!

Yes, both options are fine, as long as I know where I'm going :-)

I’d love a compass item that you have to activate to look at and an LCD script for it to. There is a mod that puts one on your HUD, that useful for some people but unrealistic. That should be an option setting I think.

And for a planet map, hell yes! You could plot gps markers a lot more immersive with a map! Perhaps some kind of auto plotting device meaning you need to take it with you to explore or have a drone with a camera send info back to it – thus slowly revealing the planet you are on. But also an option to just have maps available in game. Even the default height map from the planet files wouldn’t be a bad thing. Better yet give modders a map file to add in the planet data.

A high tech space game without a map or compass just doesn't make sense. Is it so hard to do? Look at Empyrion GS, can't you do something like that - limited as it is. Navigation aid should be a priority - seriously. The game is unfinished, I still love it.

I'm surprised this still isn't a thing. I've seen mods for it, but I'm on PS5 and can't use scripts.

"but I'm on PS5"

That's what happens when you buy into castrated, locked-down entertainment ecosystems. Serves you right.

I'm sure your off-the-shelf gaming rig is so much better. LMAO! Those that brag, have the least.

Honestly can't complain with my spine, dignity, and wallet still intact. Not sure about yours, seeing how they've already been prostituted to Sony's every whim …

Yeah, they're intact, wherever they are. Cause you damn sure don't have either. Anyways, you're boring me. Have a nice life, keyboard warrior.

Yes, my PC's keyboard is working perfectly fine, thank you for asking. How's yours? Also, your video editor, image editor/manager, code IDE, ad blocker, file system access, hardware extensibility, hardware replaceability, hardware upgradability and customisability, general repairability, compatibility with effectively all periphery ever created, multi-display work and gaming, streaming, practically unlimited software and tool availability, Steam/GOG/Humble sales, unlimited framerate, mod availability, backwards compatibility with decades old games, multiboot, LAN multiplayer, virtualization, literally 100 % of game, promotional, support, and ancillary content to ever have existed for any console game, ever? Ever done tax returns on your peasant station five? Your impulse-purchased, instant-gratification dust-collecting TV shelf ornament? Ever done anything productive and contributive to the betterment of humanity, no matter how little, with your three-buttons-and-a-stick plastic potato?

Imagine being the guy that comes into a thread, attacks a person he knows nothing about for no other reason than to make himself feel superior to a complete stranger. You're a sad little man. The kinda guy that jerks himself with tweezer into his own mouth and then brags about having a really active sex life. I feel bad for you. And with that, I'll let you enjoy your imagined victory. Later, little girl.
