I have reached the conclusion that there is no hotkey to display the grid coordinates for all hexes.

Welcome to 2009. [8D]

Any idea if it was either (a) just left out unthinking; (b) left out conscientiously because getting it to work would've been hard on infrastructure / buggy across different rigs?; or (c) left out conscientiously because it just wasn't deemed worth doing. For my part, I'd say it is the most egregious deficiency in this otherwise masterpiece of a game.

No idea why it isn't in the game. But the more you play the more you know about where any x,y is found on the map. At least enough to get to the general area from a SigInt line entry.

The coordinates of the currently selected hex appears on the top bar, but there is nothing to display the coordinates in each hex at once as far as I know. Bill

I can imagine it would have been an insanely difficult thing to implement, and so I cannot fault the design team. We all work within the constraints of time, money, infrastructure, staff, etc. [;)] Still a mod that adds this one thing could be huge. Can anyone tell me if this portion of the code is accessible without breaking open the .exe (and breaching my "warranty")?

wdolson -> RE: Hex Coordinate Display (4/13/2015 6:25:17 AM)
It isn't accessible

Combat Reporter can sort the sigint and a mouse over can give you the map hexes. Saves time. [image]local://upfiles/49386/8FEC07475936460E9A359E0584B6926F.jpg[/image]
