Help with .stc file syntax

Post #1by mroghy » 25.09.2003, 18:29

Hi all.
I've Celestia 1.3.0 and I've a problem using most of the add-ons. In the .stc file often items are written this way:

<number> "alias:alias1"
{
attributes here
}

this does not work for me. I can't select from the program using HIP <number> nor any of the aliases. I have to correct manually the file discarding the aliases. What's wrong? Any suggestion?
Thanks.

1.3.0 doesn't support the use of stellar "aliases" in the stc file. You need to upgrade in order to be able to use these stc's.
