Default Latitude, Longitude

[pencilart]

It would be nice to have a default Latitude and longitude for the compass.
Once set in a scene, SH3D should always use that as the default setting.
Right now, (version 4.1) the user has to keep setting it for each new home.

The latitude and longitude is set by default from the timezone you chose in the system. Unless you continuously create plans for foreigners, I don't see the need for this request and anyway, if you want to be precise, each plan will have a different latitude and longitude that you'll have to change each time you start a new plan.
See this long list of time zones I wrote for the program? It gives the latitude and longitude of the biggest city in each known timezone (for example New York City for US/Eastern time zone). So, either you changed the timezone in your system for whatever reason, or retrieving the timezone you chose is buggy in your environment. Could you check again please?

ok, thanks for that. I looked at my computer's settings and they were set to the correct time zone, but for some reason SH3D was not picking up on the system's setting. Today, (Sept 18) it is picking it up and showing it correctly. It's weird that it didn't do this the previous few days.

..latitude and longitude of the biggest city in each known timezone...

I guess this explains why my new files always ends up in Paris (Win 8.1 timezone environment has few city options). Now, I have seen N 48,867 E 2,333 so many times that I had to look it up. What does puzzle me a bit, is why the file ends up in an appointment only hairdresser in a back street (Rue de la Sourdière)... [:)]

What would be nice, though, is if the compass (map-link-field?) could link to location, e.g. OpenStreetMap as above. OR just support for basic html in a text field, for instance <a href="http://1881.to/35Oh9x">SITE MAP</a> (example: better local map server for 60N 10E).

ok

PS - maybe I already mentioned this - if so, sorry ...
PPS - having the model information key html available in the .sh3d file would be a usable workaround.
