Mapping is important to coordinate campuses' scanning and exploration and is vital for [[Wormhole_Campus|Wormhole Campus]] to ensure they have full knowledge of nearby wormholes. EVE University hosts a private pathfinder for its members at https://pathfinder.eveuniversity.org/
 
−
Pathfinder was [https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=218&t=114996 introduced] in November 2019 as a replacement for our old [https://github.com/evewspace/eve-wspace EVE-Wspace] tool.

== Accessing the mapper ==
 
  
−
To view and contribute to the mapper, you need to log in via SSO:
 
  
−
*Go to https://pathfinder.eveuniversity.org/
+
|[[File:Wh_eye_heimatar_.png|250px|border]]<br>[[File:Wh_eye_heimatar_2.png|250px|border]]
−
*Use SSO login and log in with your EVE Online account. The logging in is done through EVE Online servers and is safe.
+
|Heimatar
 +
|
 +
|-
  
−
First thing you will want to do after logging in, is to select your required map. This will usually be your campus map, but you may also have a personal or shared map.

== Reading the map ==
 
  
−
The map is made of systems and connections in between them. On the map these will show some of their information in compact form, to see full information select the system/connection and look at the panels below th map.

The two main points of interest are signatures and connections. These two are closely linked together.

* Make sure you have the correct system selected.
+
|[[File:Wh_eye_derelik_1.png|250px|border]]<br>[[File:Wh_eye_derelik_2.png|250px|border]]
−
* Click the '''+''' button in the top right corner of signatures panel.
+
|Derelik
−
* Add the Signature ID (the three letters shown in your signatures list. For example, if the ID is RFA-139, you just add RFA).
+
|
−
* Select which type of signature it is.
+
|-
−
* Add in the description.
 
−
* Press the + button on this row of information.
 
  
−
To quickly bulk import signatures, follow these steps:
 
  
−
* Make sure you have the correct system selected.
 
−
* Select a signature in your scan window in-game.
 
−
* Select all signatures (CTRL+A)
 
−
* Copy the signatures (CTRL+C)
 
−
* In path finder paste the signatures (CTRL+V)
 
  
−
This updates those signatures, or adds them if they don't exist.
 
  
−
"Lazy delete" option can be used when you import all the signatures in a system. With lazy delete all old signatures that are not included in your new bulk import will be deleted. This is great for completely refreshing a system and clearing out any old signatures.
 
  
−
There is also a more detailed signature reader. To open it click the clipboard icon at the top right corner of the signatures panel. This works the same way as simply pasting the signatures to pathfinder but with a preview window.

Pre existing signatures can also be edited or deleted in the signatures panel. Simply click the attribute you want to change.

−
=== Adding systems and connections ===
 
  
−
There are multiple different ways to add systems and connections.
+
== Outer regions ==
  
−
If you have tracking enabled in pathfinder the map will automatically add systems to the map as you jump to them. The types of systems can be limited by the map maintainer. If the map scope is set to "all" all connections will be automatically added, if the map scope is set to "wormholes" only wormhole connections are added and if the scope is set to "stargates" only stargate connections are added. If the scope is set to "none" no connections are automatically added.<br>
+
{|class=wikitable style="width: 900px;background:#111111;text-align:center"

The pilot tracking has it flaws. Jump cloning, getting podded or just opening a different map may add nonexisting connections to the map.

After a system has had another system added to it with a wormhole connection this can be linked to a signature in that system. Simply click the "leads to " attribute on the WH signatuer and select the corresponding system. Setting this will automatically add mass and size limit info on the connection (only if the WH was not k162).

Wormhole connection health can be set by right clicking the wormhole connection. This way you can set the mass criticality and end of lifetime of the connection. EOL connections are automatically deleted 4h 15m after the status is set. The "preserve mass" option is for informing other map users to not waste mass of this wormhole.

Our You arrive to the system of Octanneve. After making sure you are safe you start to scan the system. First mapper related thing you should do is to check if the mapper contains up to date information on cosmic signatures. To do this select the system in which you are and look at the "Signatures" panel below the map.

You start by enabling the "lazy 'delete' signatures" option at top right corner.

Pay attention to the filters you use. In normal space information on anomalies is rarely useful and just adds unnecessary noise. So do not include information on anomalies in normal space. But in wormhole space the information on anomalies can be very imporatnt so in there they should be included.

−
Then just go back to pathfinder window and CTRL+V to add the info on signatures. Now you will easily see if any of the old signatures is still present in system. There is no need to scan those again so you will be able to scan faster by taking advantage on the old scanning information.

Once you have scanned all signatures you can add the scanned data in pathfinder the same way. Select signatures with CTRL+A, copy them with CTRL+C and paste them in pathfinder with CTRL+V.

Once you are on grid with the wormhole you will be able to see the type of the wormhole on your overview. All wormholes have not very useful "k162" on their "out" end and a more useful name on the "in" end.<br>

In this example the "in" end is in this system. Add this information to the pathfinder.<br>
+
|Pure Blind
−
In the signatures panel click the red "unknown" text in the "type" column of the wormhole. Write in the name of the wormhole.<br>

−
Knowing the type of the wormhole will reveals the ship size limit, mass limit and what kind of system is on the "out" end of the wormhole.
+
|-
  
−
To map the connection you jump through the wormhole. If you have tracking enabled in pathfinder the destination system is added and connected in the map automatically. If the tracking is not enabled you can right click the system you were in and select "add system" to add a system.

|-
  
−
Now connect the signature to the wormhole. Click the "leads to" attribute of the wormhole in the signatures panel. The drop down menu will already contain the connected system for you to select. This information is useful later when the signature has gone away. When next person comes and removes the signature that is no more the mapped wormhole connection is also deleted without extra input.
