ISKernel:navpoint (Data Type)

Members

• float X: X coordinate
• float Y: Y coordinate
• float Z: Z coordinate
• string Name: Name of the navigational point
• bool ConnectsTo[name]: TRUE if the point connects to a specified point
• bool ConnectsFrom[name]: TRUE if the point connects from a specified point
• int Outgoing: Number of outgoing connections from this point
• int Incoming: Number of incoming connections to this point
• navpoint Outgoing[n]: nth point with a connection from this point
• navpoint Incoming[n]: nth point with a connection to this point
• string Note: A user-defined note set with the navigational point

Methods

• SetPosition[#,#,#]: Changes the location of the navigational point
• SetName[name]: Changes the name of the nav point
• Delete: Deletes the nav point
• AddConnection[name]: Adds a connection to a nav point
• AddConnection[name,bidirectional]: Adds a bidirectional connection to a nav point
• DeleteConnection[name]: Deletes a connection to a nav point
• DeleteConnection[name,bidirectional]: Deletes a bidirectional connection to a nav point
• SetNote[note]: Attaches a note to the navigational point

Examples

Retrieve a name of a point by ID#

• echo Point name: ${Navigation.World[earth].Point[13].Name}

Output

Point name: Cincinatti

Check a points connection to another point

• echo 13 Connect to 14? ${Navigation.World[earth].Point[13].ConnectsTo[${Navigation.World[earth].Point[14]}]}

Output

13 connect to 14? TRUE

Display the nth connection point from given point

• echo 1st connection to Point13: ${Navigation.World[earth].Point[13].Outgoing[1]}
• echo 2st connection to Point13: ${Navigation.World[earth].Point[13].Outgoing[2]}

Output

1st connection to Point13: Columbus
2nd connection to Point13: Chicago

Create a bidrection connection between two points

• Navigation.World[earth].Point[13]:AddConnection[${Navigation.World[earth].Point[15]},bidirectional]
• Navigation.World[earth].Point[13]:AddConnection[Detroit,bidirectional]

Note: These two are functionally the same

Remove a connection from point A to point B

• Navigation.World[earth].Point[13]:RemoveConnection[Detroit]

Note: Now Cincinatti no longer connects to detroit, but detroit still connects to cincinatti

Create a note for a point

• Navigation.World[earth].Point[15]:SetNote[MCC Poker room is better than Greektown]

Read a note for a point

• echo Note: ${Navigation.World[earth].Point[15].Note}

Output

Note: MCC Poker room is better than Greektown

Retrieve the location of a point in a world

• echo X: ${Navigation.World[earth].Point[Michigan].X} Y: ${Navigation.World[earth].Point[Michigan].Y}

Output

X: -341.77 Y: -2743.61

Set a new position for a given point

• Navigation.World[earth].Point[13]:SetPosition[1234,291,-213]
