You can rightclick on the map to do so.

Yeah I was being lazy and wanted a input field on the map window that aloud me to enter x,y and it would create the waypoint. wink

He said, if we are nice, he evtually will allow us to EDIT waypoints.

that indirectly solve this request - you create a waypoint edit its coordinates. The rightclick on map map means i still have to search the coordinates manually that the artifact scanner tool tells me.

beeing able to create waypoints directly on coordinates would make it much easier to for me to reduce the number of manual input necessary.

now when i think about it... Gremrod, you don't have any ulterior motives for this request, don't you? (serious question)

QOL. big_smile

And I didn't read anything about any edit coming in the future of waypoints.

Re: Add waypoint by tile cords

that was in public IRC chat... perhaps tinkerbot can quote it if you get a lucky draw. wink

The exact things i was asking for:
- beeing able to edit existing waypoints
- beeing able to group waypoints like we can geoscans
- beeing able to see lines connecting waypoints that are grouped (like teleport connects)
- beeing able to send such waypoing groups to others
- last but not least, give autopilot the command to follow such a chain

The answer was mostly "no" or "if your nice to me (gargaj)" as far as i remember.
i would extend the list now with for DEV use only:
- beeing able to script AI behaviour along the path and at the waypoints.

using the waypoint chains in mission scripts and for roaming spawns.

Re: Add waypoint by tile cords

Being able to set a range circle around a waypoint (editable range) for display. Anyone?
