MaplyStarsModel Documentation

[mattguthmiller]

Is the MaplyStarsModel file format documented anywhere, or where could we find the starcatalog_orig.txt file from the AutoTester?

The file is in the resources repo or in the AutoTester app package.

So is the MaplyStarsModel broken? Nothing seems to happen when I do:

// Test stars
    NSString *fileName = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"starcatalog_orig" ofType:@"txt"];
    if (fileName) {
        MaplyStarsModel *stars = [[MaplyStarsModel alloc] initWithFileName:fileName];
        if (stars) {
            UIImage *starImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"star_background"];
            if (starImage) {
                [stars setImage:starImage];
                
                NSDictionary *desc = @{
                    kMaplyEnable: @(YES),
                    kMaplyPointSize: @(10)
                };
                
                [stars addToViewC:baseVC
                            date:[NSDate now]
                            desc:desc
                            mode:MaplyThreadCurrent];
            }
        }
    }

At this point I don't remember if it made it into the Metal version. Easiest way to check is to run the AutoTester app.
