way to set a waypoint from far away

[TioTrix]

is there a way to set a wp from km or so ?
or do i have to be there where i want to set the wp?

Change the GPS coordinate numbers.

You can set one at any position, what matters is being able to find or calculate the numbers required to place it where you desire. How you do that and what accuracy is needed depends on the application.

where do can i found the coordinate numbers from far away?

Google.

hm meant for on planets. for random spawns

Okay, tut mir leid, es ist immer noch nicht klar, was genau Sie tun möchten. Vielleicht wäre es einfacher, es in Ihrer eigenen Sprache genau und detailliert zu erklären. ^.^


Wenn Sie die richtige Richtung kennen, können Sie die Zahlen mithilfe einfacher Trigonometrie berechnen

Manually alter the GPS coordinates in the GPS menu or take control of a Remote Control and fly it to where you want to set a GPS coordinate, then just set a GPS coordinate like normal.

kann mich die schiffe ja net nähren werd ja beschossen
suche nun ein weg wie ich nen wegpunkt erstellen kann ohne da zu sein
bzw ein weg wie ich die coordinaten raus bekomme ohne da zu sein
damit ich z.b. dronen hin schicken kann oder so was

Yes, like I said, you can take control of a Remote Control and fly it to the desired location. Then save the waypoint/gps coordinate as you would usually.

Other than flying a drone there using a remote control block, as mentioned above, the only way I know of to do it is what I suggested. Make a waypoint then change the coordinate numbers.

Abgesehen davon, wie oben erwähnt, eine Drohne mit einem Fernbedienungsblock dorthin zu fliegen, ist die einzige mir bekannte Möglichkeit die, die ich vorgeschlagen habe. Erstellen Sie einen Wegpunkt und ändern Sie dann die Koordinatennummern.

[TioTrix]

meinte aber ohne drone. ohne schiff etc
dachte das ist klar weil ich geschrieben hab das es von km weit entfernt von gehen könnte

[Jack Schitt]

You have your answer then if you don't want to use a drone. Change the coordinate numbers.

Hi, keep in mind it's the same GPS coords in all new created worlds.

We can load in creative mode to avoid the exploring part and use the "God" modes to teleport our character to create the GPS coords we need, copy/paste to LCD and Blueprint that LCD to use in all new created worlds.

I can tell you will not need the GPS coords at some popint, because they will be in your Jump Drive Blueprints on pasting or building with Projector block in survival.

Me = Some GPS coords of Rich ore spots of the game I don't need anymore because I know where it is, for example.

To specify :

-> This is if you want to create GPS coords faster.

Create a Duplicate so a copy of the world you play in that you set creative mode just to go create the GPS coords you need.

How to create a testing copy :

1 - Select your save.
2 - Click the "Save as" button on the left.
3 - Change the save name to create a copy.
4 - Load the copy in creatrive mode to create the needed GPS coords.

Easy way to add a GPS to a far away point you have no idea what the coordinates might be:

1) Add a GPS point for your *current* location and name it. This helps you find your way back...
2) Enable admin with ALT+F10. Ensure you have spectator mode enabled.
3) Enter spectator mode with F8
4) Travel to that far-away location where you want to put your GPS marker. You can increase/decrease your spectator speed with SHIFT+MouseWheel. You can go up to insane speeds so careful there.
5) When you are at the far-away location teleport your character there with CTRL+Space
6) Create a GPS marker and name it
7) Travel back to your ship or base (aren't you glad you added a GPS point at step 1?)
8) Teleport your character again with CTRL+Space
9) Exit spectator mode with F6
10) Disable admin mode
