Extended Location Preview

This page will give you more information about what the Extended Location Preview offers.

Overview

The Extended Location Preview doesn't require any additional set-up but it will not work if you have the Location Preview Feature disabled (in the Settings file) or it hasn't been setup yet for any location on your Region.

Below you'll find a short list of the possible Information this Feature can provide you.

The only things this Feature allows you to modify are the Input Buttons. These are explained in the Extended Preview Settings.

One thing you should keep in mind is that the map names are used from the map_metadata.txt PBS file for the locations. You can use the LINK_POI_TO_MAP settings to change the name of your maps. This will only apply to the Extended Preview and won't effect anything else.


Extended Location Preview

When Extended Preview is enabled and a Location Preview is Shown on the map, you'll be able to open the Extended Preview for this location.

Like usual, the Button Preview will tell you which button to press.

Main page

The Main Page can give you following information.

If there's no Information available for this location then it'll say "No Location Data Available".

Extended Preview Arcky's house

When there are multiple Locations with the same Map Position, you can press Left or Right to change Pages. The Location Name is shown on the top Left and the page number is shown on the bottom Left.

On the screenshot above, it shows 2 as the total pages, since I have the Setting NO_UNVISITED_MAP_INFO = true , the 3rd and 4th map aren't shown yet. if that Setting is false, it'll show 4 as the total pages.
