Map Sector Distance Indicator
« on: December 20, 2019, 01:39:28 PM »
Would be helpful, perhaps under the Map name, to have an indicator of the Sector size.

Maybe something simple such as "Sector = 25 Miles" or "[------25 Miles-----]".

I'm pretty sure most maps do have that. Somewhere, well hidden in some corner.

Wouldn’t that change when zoomed in and out on the map?

All sectors on all maps are 25 miles across.  That's Aces High standard.  When you zoom in and out, the sector grid zooms with the map.

No,  although that would be really cool. 

If there were always 7  gridlines across the view at all times and their scale simple changed with the zoom and the scale displayed on the side.  That would be cool.  ;)

As far as know, regardless of map size... each sector is 25X25 miles
