Landingpad display plugin for EDMC

This plugin helps people to find their assigned landingpad position in starports or fleetcarriers (private and squadron).

Installation

• On EDMC's Plugins settings tab press the “Open” button. This reveals the plugins folder where EDMC looks for plugins.
• Download the latest release.
• Open the .zip archive that you downloaded and move the LandingPad folder contained inside into the plugins folder.

You will need to re-start EDMC for it to notice the new plugin.

Settings

• Greenside: which side are the green navigation lights

  • right (Default)
  • left

• max. Width: maximum width of the station inside the EDMC window

  • 0 (Default, no limitation)
  • -1 (current window width, will be replaced with the actual value after closing the settings)
  • otherwise the minimum value is 150

• Hide station canvas: Don't show the station graphic in the EDMC window.

• Overlay

  • Use overlay if available: if the EDMCOverlay plugin is installed use it (Default: off)
  • Station Radius: the radius of the overlay station (Default: 100)
  • Center coordinates X/Y: the center position of the overlay station (Default: 100/490)
  • Screen Width/Height: the gamescreen resolution to keep the right aspect ratio (Default: screen of EDMC)
  • Drawing delay: delay between each drawing step in milliseconds (allowed range: 0 .. 500, Default: 100)

• Special meaning for Fleetcarriers:

  • Greenside left is an upside down carrier (rotated 180°).
  • Station Radius times two is the sidelength of the squarebox which contains all pads.
