I am building a fairly complex modular age (lots of places look the same)and need to find a way to map my locations and get reports of errors (holes in the floor type things) If the KI GPS type locator was working that could at least return some sort of message, be that units relative to some notional gz (be that the Great Zero or a ground zero where this bombshell lands).

Is this a possibility if not I will just have to make a visible grid and drop it into my age.

Feel free to bump this to another thread if should be somewhere else.

Nope, KI coordinate system in ages aren't a feature. It'll be awhile probably before that. (I don't even think the class is coded into pyprp)

An embryo of an idea: map a hotkey to a python class (like what Dustin did with Drizzle). Have the python class write a log entry with the coordinates every time the hotkey is pressed. Have the tester send you the log file (.elf file).

Sounds good Chacal but I think I got lost a couple of words after embryo. :D

You could just have a file you write to. Something like agebugs.txt. It could write a new line for every bug sent. If everyone had a UU type KI this would be super easy. You could just have a command /agebug <discription>. I even think Cyan had some kind of /bug command.

But alas, that crumby CC KI dominates. :P
