LUA Function for Lat/Lon to World Coordinate Conversion

[Leviathan667]

 

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to script flight plans directly into the mission file and need help with coordinate conversions for the Sinai map.

My LUA structure for the flight plan works and loads in the editor, but my own math for converting Lat/Lon to the mission file's internal x/y coordinates is inaccurate.

Perhaps try  coord.LLtoLO()

I am not sure now this would help. But maybe I wasn't specific enough:

What I am looking for is to convert the CCS coordinates (zx,z axis in meters relative to central point on the map) to DMS.
