OnPlayerEnteredSystem or alternative query

[relanat]

Attached is a mod that finds the selected station and gives a list of the systems that they are in. You can then jump directly to that system and arrive at the first stargate (Ideally you could jump straight to the station but I don't know if that is possible).

It would be a lot better if the station was set as known and had a directional indicator so you could travel straight there. But that ain't happening.

The main problem is getting the station info to the next system.

I thought using <OnPlayerEnteredSystem> would do it. If the station is there then setKnown and have a directional indicator come up using either shpOrder gPlayership 'dock or objSetShowAsDestination.

But nothing I put in <OnPlayerEnteredSystem> is working for some reason.

Anyone got any ideas on how to set the indicator and setKnown the station in the destination system using <OnPlayerEnteredSystem> or some other method?
George uses some sort of mission code to highlight the Korolov station in the Benedict mission I think, but I can't decipher it and it seems a bit of overkill for a simple jump mod.

 Try running it from <OnGlobalPlayerEnteredSystem> instead. I’ve had my share of problems with <OnPlayerEnteredSystem>, and most of them were fixed by adding a couple of conditionals to check for nodeIDs and using the global version of the event.

I think <OnPlayerEnteredSystem> only runs if it's on an object that's in the system.

Also, if you haven't already seen it, you should read at least the last paragraph of this post.

As soon as AP suggested <OnGlobalPlayerEnteredSystem> I figured that was what I needed. And it's working too. Thanks.

And thanks, NMS, for that info in the other post. Basic stuff that can't be discovered by experimenting with code.
