Atlas Rotation

[ailes123]

Please let the player have a way to rotate holding atlas, so we can stand in one place and browse the whole map. My toon feet are tired

Not sure how easy it is to code, but it seems reasonable that we could hold one trigger to view the atlas, then press another button to either rotate the atlas or enter Atlas Look mode.

In the past, I wrote this suggestion with this thought in mind, about rotating Atlases :

CRAZY IDEA : Atlas Reader

[BoundlessAtlasReader] (see what I did there?) I find atlasses aren’t great maps and I wish there was a better alternative. So I thought about a machine which, once interacted with, would allow you to plug an atlas inside, hence activating said machine. In my head, it would somewhat look like this : [BoundlessAtlasReader-Machine] You could imagine that refined gleam could be a component to craft the machine, and that it would visually influence the color of the little crystals featured on …

I still want to be able to build a station that displays a giant galaxy map that you can drop in completed atlases to fill in your galactic map.
This would be awesome to just view planets and check them out, but also a utility that allows you to map out portals you opened to see your connections and pathways. Something like an interface in the map that you select planet A and trace a route to planet B, it would show you how many blink secs it is, the portal size needed, or the best route to setup portals to get to that planet.

Just my wild imagination at work while I am at work haha.

I want the system map on the Normandy from Mass Effect.

[almund]

Some advanced atlases with features like this (and more) would be cool!

The map system from Warframe, with planets circling.

[boundmore]

I wouldn’t mind if we could “open” the atlas so it covers entire screen as a flat map of the planet.

Like a Harry Potter pensive!

Harry Potter pensive

Haha yeah something like that, I had to google this because it has been so long since I have watched Harry Potter xD

[Kodiakman]

This is a great Idea.
