This plugin adds in configurable location in game window information about :

• current player location (street and city/county),
• displays interstates in red, routes in yellow, other streets in white color,
• displays speed limit at current street, it’s based on street location and in some cases player coordinates in game world – as of now it has basic functionality, comparing to this what I planned.
• also displays current time in game (12 or 24 hour clock),
• current player speed displayed in MPH or KMPH depending on which system player choosen in options,
• direction / heading.
• current zone
• player coordinates (x,y,z)

There’s ability to configure plugin behaviour via “RageShowMyLocation.ini” file and / or using in-game menu accessible by pressing F6 (thanks to RageNativeUI – by alexguirre, Stealth22, LtFlash, Guad and others ), which includes :

• position of each 6 text elements (heading, street/county/zone, time, speed limit, player speed, coordinates) on screen,
• font sizeof each 6 text elements (heading, street/county/zone, time, speed limit, player speed, coordinates) on screen,

also switches (on/off) in ini file :

• metric/imperial units switch,
• time (in game),
• heading,
• player speed,
• player coordinates (x,y,z),
• current zone.
• if display text inside black box (with adjustable opacity) or not, for all those patrols on sunny weather,

and …

• font family/name – this can be any system font installed in Windows,
• in-game menu key binding (for better integration with other tools, trainers etc.)

Settings, while using in-game menu, are saved immediatelly to ini file after applying so they are persistent, and are applied instantly.

Default config has set position values for small screen resolution which give basic feel how it works, just to be adjusted by player to his/her needs

There’s API for plugin makers in test phase as well allowing to obtain speed limit for given street (name, location) – see develpment forum thread for details – I’ll post there some examples.

Issues with text flickering has been resolved, In RPH 0.29 – 0.30 was added method for faster drawing text on game window, so once I figured that solution to this problem is already available, I used it.

Improved zone information displayed to player, thanks to translation table (raw string to more readable form) from AlexGuirre.
