Northstar98 Posted June 8, 2019 Posted June 8, 2019 Would ED consider adding territorial boundaries to maps in the Mission Editor and F10 map, particularly for SoH/PG map. The important boundary is territorial waters (12nm/ ~22km from the coastline) I believe this also corresponds to the horizontal distance the boundary for territorial airspace under international law (AFAIK). Of course once we have these boundaries present visually in the map and mission editor (ideally as a layer that can be switched on and off) the next logical steps are trigger zones with user defined shapes not to mention user marks and drawings in the mission editor and F10 map (which has been requested a lot of times before - and for good reason).

Kang Posted June 8, 2019 Posted June 8, 2019 If I'm not mistaken the national borders on land are visible (I used to get them mixed up with roads quite often...), but they would definitely be appreciated at sea as well. I also like the idea of it being a layer that can be switched on and off. Perhaps it would also be possible to label these zones in this layer?

The land borders are but nothing for territorial waters/airspace, which would be great for the SoH/PG map Modules I own: F-14A/B, F-4E, Mi-24P, AJS 37, AV-8B N/A, F-5E-3, MiG-21bis, F-16CM, F/A-18C, Supercarrier, Mi-8MTV2, UH-1H, Mirage 2000C, FC3, MiG-15bis, Ka-50, A-10C (+ A-10C II), P-47D, P-51D, C-101, Yak-52, WWII Assets, CA, NS430, Hawk.

Nealius Posted June 9, 2019 Posted June 9, 2019 Territorial waters/airspace is shown by clicking "MAP" view button at the bottom. Some squares disappear at certain zoom levels, though.
Northstar98 Posted June 9, 2019 Author Posted June 9, 2019 (edited) Territorial waters/airspace is shown by clicking "MAP" view button at the bottom. Some squares disappear at certain zoom levels, though. Ah that does show an aircraft chart which shows regions of controlled airspace, but I can't find anything regarding territorial waters/airspace (under international law AFAIK this is 12nm border drawn from the coast - so what I'm asking for is an outline of this area that can be toggled on/off as a layer (like for the MGRS/Geographic grid etc)) However, now that I've looked at the chart there's quite the amount of things missing, even in the detailed area of the PG/SoH map that's completely absent - such as the oilfields (though these can be built in the ME), not to mention all the lighthouses etc. Edited June 9, 2019 by Northstar98 Modules I own: F-14A/B, F-4E, Mi-24P, AJS 37, AV-8B N/A, F-5E-3, MiG-21bis, F-16CM, F/A-18C, Supercarrier, Mi-8MTV2, UH-1H, Mirage 2000C, FC3, MiG-15bis, Ka-50, A-10C (+ A-10C II), P-47D, P-51D, C-101, Yak-52, WWII Assets, CA, NS430, Hawk.
