Mysha's Recipe Manager + Telesci Utilities
#39
Telescience Manager

Today I present you wit the long awaited telescience assistance program, for all your telescience needs.

Features
  • Full size station map
  • Panning
  • Zooming
  • Translating coordinates by clicking on a map
  • Manual coordinate input
  • Bookmarks
  • Three modes of calibration: GPS, Extrapolation and Manual
  • Support for multiple maps (currently only the station map is included)

Basic controls
  • Left mouse button - pan around the map
  • Right mouse button - select highlighted tile
  • Middle mouse button - reset zoom
  • Mouse wheel - zoom in/out

You must first calibrate (Options->Calibrate) before the program will translate your coordinates.

Visual tour

Here we have the main window of the application, showing the map and the coordinates panel.

The bookmarks panel, toggled by clicking on the Bookmarks button. Here you can add a bookmark from the currently selected tile (Add selected button) or an empty bookmark to be filled in (Add button), delete a bookmark or save the list.

This is the calibration dialog (Options->Calibrate). It supports two modes of calibration: the common GPS method, and a new Extrapolation method usable by the AI or borgs (invented by yours truly).

After calibration (by using the Calibration dialog, or by inputting the constants manually) the program translates all coordinates automatically.
In the 'Coordinates' section you have the currently selected map tile coordinates.
The 'Manual coordinate selection' section allows you to input any coordinate without selecting it on the map.
The 'Bookmark' selection shows your currently selected bookmark.
The 'Calibration' section is automatically filled in by the Calibration dialog (or you can fill it in manually)

Warning
The availability of this program doesn't mean you should use it for crime/stealing. Do not abuse your newfound power.
As most people who use telescience already have their own spreadsheets, this application shouldn't distrupt the life of the station too much, but if you are new to the life of a telescientist, please try first to understand how it works and/or make your own spreadsheet before you start to blindly use the Telescience Manager. A good explanation of the linear algebra used is available on the wiki: http://wiki.ss13.co/Telescience
