well, the title says it.

I described it here:

My Idea is to manipulate the mission file within the .miz to import IP points. Like DAFIF, Navaids, Obstacles and what have you.

Those are represented as x and y in the code. I learned already, that those are cartesian / gnomonic coordinates and the 0 point is somewhere, but on each map different. Additionally some DCS maps are rotated like Germany CW for some +7 degrees.

ChatGPT is helping me a lot, by creating an excel file where i enter the Lat Lon in decimal, whe 0 Point and the rotation, but the calculation is off and makes no sense at all. Could be me. I am shure it is me, but maybe there is someone out there helping with that.

I knew, that there where some threads talking about it, but those guys are MIA for some years. Also, - if i remember right, moose fas a funktion calculating it, and also the expor.lua has a hint to solve this - stupid me dont get it.

TLDR;

can someone smarter than me provide an excel file calculating Lat Lon to X and Y (should be Z, but thats what it is), taking in account a possible rotation of the map and the 0 Point of the X and Y?

€ It seems to be called geoLat and geoLong like Lat 48,717069 Lon 9,367466 maybe even converting them from Lat Lon, gut i guess there i would find a conversion to somewhere online.

Moose hasn't a function for this. Moose is using the DCS api
