It places a height symbol as the Stars in the Cosmo 3 style are. It expects the symbol catalog and the symbol name as input next, and then the location and height of the symbol.

You can always try out such a command by typing it at the command line in CC3+.

Here are the intructions I provided!

- open the attached cfg file and in the list of sector names, add the custom sector you want to import, with the name that is in the travellermap database

- Save the cfg file in a convenient location

- Start CC3+ normally, as well as the process of importing a sector.

- After saving the new map, the import dialog comes up, with the list of the official sectors.

- Click the Change Export Settings and load your modified cfg file.

- Click "Cancel" on the dialog.

- Start creating a new map, again choosing Cosmographer > Traveller Sector Import and saving the map.

- When the import dialog comes up again, you should now see your newly added name in the list.

- Continue with the import as normal. Note that you may see a few script errors at the end, depending on the custom sector, but the end result should be the FCW map I have attached to this email.

As promised here's the interim version of the map - work in progress.

Thanks folks, for the feedback. Somehow it turns out, last minute changes tend to be problematic. :P Who would have known?

I've updated the Annual setup to fix the reported drawing tool issues, and also changed the way the PDF is referenced. CC3+ will start now, with a link to the mapping guide in the map. Please give it a try now. This should simply install over the previous version and remove any wrong/superfluous files.

Open Symbols > Symbol Manager, EDIT one of the symbols showing a red X and use Info > List on the red x rectangle.

That should show you the location and image CC3+ is looking for in the map. Copy the missing images there, restart CC3+ and the symbols should show again.

If you can't resolve it, post the FCW file of your map here, so we can take a look.

The other option if you want to stay with vector files is a hatch style, but they work a little differently.

I agree with Remy, there can never be too many videos. :)

Ah, my apologies, I forgot to update the link with a relative filepath.

Here is the corrected version, which I will also replace in the setup.

I'm glad it was useful! :)

I've been able to reproduce this, using clipboard copy & paste on a light entity causes CC3+ to freeze. It's been pt on our list of things to fix. In the meantime, please use the Copy command instead.
