distance on system map
« on: January 13, 2010, 02:18:29 PM »
Is there any way of getting a distance between two points/bodies on the system map? or on one of the other screens?

Center the map on one of the two objects, you want to get the distance by left-clicking on it.

Shift-Leftclick on the object and hold shift and the mouse button while moving the cursor to the second object.

There will appear a line between the tow objects with the distance shown
