Title: My uber l33t nodemap
Post by: Solatar on December 13, 2003, 11:50:30 pm

I was bored today, so I took about an hour and a half to make a nice nodemap for my personnal use, but decided I'd let it out. I use a different arrangement of the stars than the standard map, but it still shows the required information. The stars on the map are as close as I could get them to being the color of the original. I'm aware that there is not a node between Beta Aquilae and Ribos. I put one there by mistake, and it was too late to make the correction. I'm using this map for Crimson Tide, so by then that node was discovered.:D :nervous:

Well, I originally had an upright nodemap I got so used to seeing the systems that way, I just put them like that on this map. I like it.:D

What's it missing?.

Well, actually now that I take a look, it is missing N362. But I can't find any other missing ones.

Updated with N362 and Epsilon Eridani, I sorta forgot those. :nervous:

And yes, jdj, those are the real star colors for most of them to a certain degree. I couldn't find all of them though.

Tania Australis.

And thats a VERY excellent nodemap.  It makes my old one look pale in comparison (http://freespace.volitionwatch.com/blackwater/i_nodemap.php).  Thanks for adopting the extra systems as well...goes a long way to establishing a sort of FreeSpace nodemap + kind of thing.  If everyone uses the same map (potentially expanding it) then its a great thing to behold and we don't get conflicts.

Thanks Icefire.:)

EDIT: If people want it, I could do a version with the normal system layout.
