adamsky / globe Goto Github PK

Hi there!

Just wanted to let you know that globe-cli has been packaged for NixOS. Thank you for this cool and fun little tool 😄

As reported on reddit by dd-pardal.

That's great. I don't know if it's just me, but when I pan the globe up, the code panics:
It seems like it's trying to get the character for an absurdly high luminance.
I'm using 64-bit Windows.

thread 'main' panicked at 'index out of bounds: the len is 18 but the index is 18446744073709551615', globe\src\lib.rs:141:43

Using Debian 10 "Buster" and rustc 1.41.1.

I get the following errors during build:

Then the process does not complete.

This may be an issue with an out-of-date rust compiler in the Debian repos, or it may lie elsewhere. Unfortunately my Rust knowledge is non-existent, so I cannot probe any deeper.

Not sure how this would work yet, but I think it's worth investigating.

I have successfully installed globe since I can use the globe -i command, but when I use globe -s it just gives me this error:

This is a fun one.

So basically a sort of raycast. This would enable modification of the texture based on the position of the pointer, making it possible to, for example, highlight regions of the map as they are clicked/hovered over.

The way globe-cli handles dynamic scaling could probably be improved.

What number for camera rotation spin would equal real-time?

Hi, this seems like a nice application. I think it's quite a cool novelty and I enjoy using it for fun.

As of the 0.2.0 release however; I have become very upset due to one thing:

• changed default Earth texture (now includes New Zealand)

I think this is absolute rubbish. Any good map is known to not include New Zealand.

At least a new branch with the non-New-Zealand map texture would be much appreciated.

Thank you for your time,

Here's a crazy idea. The library could support setting labeled markers that would continuously point to the selected location as the globe is rotated. It could look something like this:

error: could not compile globe-cli due to 13 previous errors

After running cargo run -- -i to try the Globe, I exited by hitting q. After that, mouse clicks input some serious garbage in my terminal :

Reproduced on Konsole and Yakuake, with and without tmux. To solve it, exitting the shell is necessary.

I've noticed a general issue with ncurses applications where they do not always exist gracefully. Once you Ctrl-C from the applciation, typing into the shell shows nothing and pressing enter shifts the prompt to the right. Usually requires one to just close that terminal and open another one. Is there a way for globe to exit curses in a way as to return the terminal to its original state?

Both texture size and palette are currently hardcoded into the library. They should instead be based on the actual Texture being used by the Globe.

Why not make Texture into a struct with it's own palette and a get_size method. This way setting a custom texture for Globe would work as expected for textures with different sizes and composed of different characters.

It would be nice to have more planets available.
