Description

A proof-of-concept designed to duplicate GPS style navigation using mscape and Flash. One arrow shows the direction and distance to a selected target whilst the other shows the current direction of travel.

I'll probably redo this at some point and clean up the bodged ActionScript and other Flash stuff, as well as the maplib file (think the coordinates are a little off).

Setup instructions

To use on your own map you'll need to replace the map (obviously) and also change the co-ordinates of the targets in the Flash ActionScript. It wouldn't hurt to make a nicer Flash interface either ;)
