To reiterate, what I'd really like to see is a "goto nearest digsite" function. Once activated, the HUD arrow would point me to where the closest digsite on the continent is. It would keep the arrow there for as long as artefacts could be found there, and when the digsite is exhausted, the arrow would instantly point to where the closest active digsite is.
This is opposed to how I currently do it - zoom all the way out to see the digsite shovel icons, put my mouse pointer square on top of one, zoom in enough so that the icon disappears, right click and select goto, go there, survey, then once exhausted, zoom all the way out to look for the next digsite.
Would also be awesome if this "goto nearest digsite" function also activated drawing the artefact "nodes" on the map. |
Hate to direct you away from Carbonite on the Carbonite forum, but in the meantime there are a number of lightweight addons that may fill this need until it is added to Carbonite. However, it seems like you'll still be using Carbonite either way... Have a look at
Archy. I haven't done much with it and it seems like it may need TomTom installed to work the way you want it to, but it could be worth trying.
