Degrees in decimal.

Post by tjhkkr »

Hello,

I have looked all over the place...
Is there a parameter for the .ini file or some part of the menus that I am missing that allows you to see the latitude and longitude in decimal?

If I can get that information, I will be able to use LUA to randomly place units within a certain area.

Thank you!

To copy these positions in-game, point to a position on the map, then press Ctrl-X. This copies a string to the clipboard representing the position pointed to on the map, a string that can then be directly used from Lua. This string is in decimal.

This is from An Introduction to LUA in Command.

I am very sorry. Thank you for taking time to give me something I should have read in the documentation.
