Associating a landscape to a specific Earth location

[herrijw]

Hi!

I am trying to associate landscape to a specific Earth location. While the procedure does seem to work for 'planets' (i.e Mars etc) it doesn't seem to apply for the above.

I've activated "Use associated planet and location" before loading the landscape.
How can I associate a landscape to a specific Earth location, so that it will change according to the selected country?

landscape.ini example:
[landscape]
name = CHINA
maptex = CHINA.png
angle_rotatez = 100
[location]
planet = Earth
latitude = +26d20'00"
longitude = +110d20'00"
altitude = 90

Please read chapter 7 again. You have not specified a type for your landscape. Your other entries allow me to speculate, it's either type=spherical (7.1.3) or type=fisheye (7.1.5).

The coordinates are updating when selecting the landscape
The landscape does change when selecting a planet
The landscape does not update when selecting an Earth based location/coordinates

I see an old version. If something does not work as expected, first update, then write here.

p.s is it possible to control the atmosphere (on/off) similar to the lightpollution string for instance? Mainly for the moon etc

There is a key documented in the User Guide. (location details). Consider also declaring time zone.
