VesselTrails

Galactic Trade Route Visualizer


Category Complexity

VesselTrails transforms your Star Map into a living dashboard of your galactic empire. It draws connection lines between star systems that are currently exchanging resources via logistics vessels.


Key Features

Trade Route Visualization

  • Active Connections: See real-time paths between stars where vessels are currently in transit.
  • Dynamic Intensity: The brightness and opacity of the lines scale with the number of active vessels on that route.
  • Empire Insight: Quickly identify your major industrial hubs and remote resource outposts.

Customization

  • Toggleable Trails: Enable or disable the visualization via config.
  • Color Modes: Choose between Material (colors based on what's inside the vessels) or Heatmap (colors based on traffic volume).
  • Opacity Control: Adjust how subtle or prominent the lines appear in the Star Map.
  • Throughput Scaling: Configure how the mod reacts to high-traffic routes.

Configuration

Settings can be adjusted in the com.Valoneu.VesselTrails.cfg file:

  • ShowTrails: (Default: true) Master toggle for the effect.
  • TrailOpacity: (Default: 0.6) Controls the transparency of the lines.
  • TrailThickness: (Default: 1.0) Base thickness multiplier.
  • ColorMode: (Default: Material) Set to Material or Heatmap.
