On page 104 of the manual (2.10, after the Importing star Data and Route data sections), there's a cryptic hint about how "The Scripting API provides other means of importing data into Astrosynthesis". Does this mean that other data (e.g. planets…

Yeah... that wouldn't work here, given I have 15,551 star systems. Still, I found a way to set all the Label/Route Display Distances anyway, by modifying the code in the Mass Label Distance Change Plugin (

i found a solution - the Mass Label Distance Change Plugin:

How do you select all the systems in the sector at once in order to apply the new Display Distances?

anyone?

OK... I've found a way to edit all the Display Distances for the labels and routes at once (via Mass Edit), but I can't find a way to select all the stars so that I can apply the changes (and there's no way I'm clicking on 15,551 stars)! Is there…

Another question - I've imported my stars and routes, but the routes seem to drop from visibility as I zoom in and out - how can I keep them permanently visible. regardless of how far I view the area from? There doesn't seem to be a filter option fo…

OK, cool. Thanks for the answers!

*bump* Is anyone able answer the questions in my previous post?

Ooo. That seems useful! Thanks, I'll check that out.

OK, I've got that working... though oddly enough my text editor (Programmers File Editor) just crashes when I try to open even a small xml file in it (this is weird because it's been able to open text files that are tens or even hundreds of megabyes…

1) is there a way to disable the text label display for all stars (not just individual ones), so they're not visible from any distance (unless they're clicked on)? 2) is there a way to disable the system name generation? I'd just like to have cat…

It should be pretty possible to do that (or to make a plugin to do that, once I figure out how...). This should be a fairly accurate way to convert spectral types (on the left) to temperatures (in K): (ref:
