As some of you may know, I'm trying to get an update of the Celestia Plug-in for Safehold done prior to Manticon 2017. I've added a moon, and the ISS as a substitute for the Orbital Bombardment Platform. I also have a collage of maps that are the best I can do for an updated Texture file.
What I'm on now is a collection of pre-saved locations with Latitudes and Longitudes pointing to locations on the Texture/Map. If you'd be willing to share some of your time, please look at the below. It's my "1.0 draft" of locations to save. Please share your own "top-ten" or "top-ninety" locations you'd like to see saved, whose position I have not already inferred. Safehold locations, Generally sorted by Longitude. NAME OF LOCATION LAT. LONG. DIST. ============================================= Gorath (city) 12. -23. Grayback Lake 44.7 17.9 Siddar City 38.5 18.5 1000 Tranjyr Passage 0 62 Tellesburg -18.5 70.5 1000 Margaret Bay 0 71 Howell Bay -13. 72. 3500 Hanth Town 0.75 74.25 Hadro River -0.25 81.25 Charis Sea 0 88. Erastor 0 97. Jackson Sound 0 122. Carmyn 1 138. Hannah Bay 0 139. Marthak Mtns 0 162.5 Manchyr -10. 166. 1000 Great Western Ocean 0 205. 4500 Sea of Harchong 0 258. 4500 Hsing-wu's Passage 70 290 4000 The Harchong Narrows 2.5 295. 3000 Saram Bay 12. 295. 1000 Temple Bay 59. 303. 1800 Zion/Temple of God 49.6 304.5 1100 Shwei Bay 0 314.5 Mountains of Light 56 325. 5000 Hankey Sound 0 330. 2200 Nimue's Cave 59.3 334.3 1100 Earldom of Hankey -3. 335. 2000 Traiyn Hill 14.8 335.1 500 Gulf of Jahras 0 348.5 500 Iythria -3. 349. 1000 Summer Is. 0 355.0 500 Summer Is.

What location are you using for 0 longitude, my guess would be Zion. |

I'm not bothering with copying and pasting David Weber's original map just in order to trick Celestia into producing a zero on Zion. If I did that, I'd have to have done the same thing on all five of the close-up maps, plus any future maps that DW might ever release. So, whatever the Texture file results in is/are the numbers that I use. . =====
