Is this capable of lines? Like start and end paintbrush style...

It works but my character/soldier 'beams' to the marker position?? I tested in the sample mission that's provided with the xmedsys (XMedSysExampleMission.Stratis). All xmed mods are active and pressed preview in the editor.As soon as I press on the map while holding the alt key i get the nice gui but also my soldier is exact at that location.

I get the following popup error

Warning Message: Addon 'X39_GM_Insurgency' requires addon 'X39_ActionUi_Scripting'

X39_ActionUi_Scripting.pbo is missing from the archives.

In the editor "example mission mode" alt+click is for teleporting, too. Try it in a real mission. I´m not sure but the key for teleport can be change.

Is it client side? I would be very interested if so.

X39 - I like this it's definitely useful, but it's a little clunky to use.

For instance on the degrees bar would it be possible to have a snap to at 90, 180, 270 degress etc.

There is no image of what the rotated icon will look like so I actually spent three times as long when I was using it as i would place an icon down, it was 90 degrees the Wrong way have to delete it and gop 90 degrees the other way etc etc...

Not sure what's possible, but could it be made more intuitive ?

already searched a way to change the angle of the example pic but ... found no way : /

for the slider:

you will be able to type in numbers soon (just picked the wrong thing here ... was intended as display but now after me using it its just too anoying to have 90.124142 91.2412 everytime)

Great work! I like this mod but I found a small lag in it. I have to press ALT + Left mouse button and menu appear in 2-3 seconds. Is it possible to make this lag less in time?

[x39 101]

As thats armas behaviour

No

Simply reduce the script load in the mission

Got no timeout at my side

Installed the mod today, but all I get is this error message when alt-clicking on the map. Dev branch Arma, no other mods.

I'm having the same trouble as eclaird, with the same error showing up in the RPT:

I'm running stable branch. ARMA version details:

Original output filename: Arma3Retail_DX11

Exe timestamp: 2014/05/06 02:00:09

Current time: 2014/05/13 17:18:49

Type: Public

Branch: Stable

Version: 1.18.124200

Only mods running are @XEnMaPl (1.0.1) and @XLib (0.1.4-beta). Tried launching both from Steam and PWS - same behaviour. Also tried reinstalling both XLib and XEnMaPl; it didn't fix it. Also created a new player profile with the default keybindings to make sure it wasn't an issue there.

Has anyone had this issue and resolved it?
