2016-07-16 - New Scanner map on scanning page

---

Hi

A new interactive scanner map is now available on the scanning page. you can toggle the map on or off, zoom or scroll the maps, turn on/off player types (police/player/military/most wanted etc.). It uses a few bits of javascript to do that, so make sure that is enabled for that page if you want to see or interact with the maps as it might not work otherwise.

I've also had to change how the scanner works slightly to make it easier to implement the new scanner maps. Its now spherical based, with your ship at the centre of the sphere. Previously it was a cube, so if anything its more "realistic" than before. So you might see slightly less ships listed than before as a consequence of the change, but be assured the AI numbers have not been altered in any way.

any questions post in the forums please

cheers
