Feature request: combined color and ocean maps

[seanth]

There's no good output map type that can be used by Kopernicus in scaledSpace. There would need to be a combination of the colourMap and the oceanMap.

I propose a new map output option that does exactly that. I'm not sure what the best name for it would be. Maybe something as simple as PQSMap.

I can't compile the code to test this, but it seems like after including the bits to check whether the user wants to map type output, all you'd need is something like

                            if (exportPQSMap)
                            {
                                CreateSatelliteMap(ref colorMap, ref oceanMap, ref satelliteMap);
                                ExportPQSMap(ref satelliteMap, subfolder + "PQSMap/", fileName);
                            }

what you need is:

@SigmaCartographer
{
    Maps
    {
        body = Kerbin
        width = 4096
        tile = 4096
        flipH = true
        oceanFloor = false
        colorMap = true
    }
}

name = Kerbin should have the name of the planet you want to export

width = and tile = should be equal so that you get a single texture, the number is how many pixel you want in the long side of the texture

flipH = true is necessary because KSP applies textures flipped horizontally for some reason

oceanFloor = false makes sure the ocean surface is printed instead than the ocean floor

colorMap = true makes sure the color map is exported

you can also add normalMap = true to export the normals (still needed for scaled space)

finally, if you don't like the color of the ocean that is automatically chosen by Cartographer you can override it by adding

oceanColor = and whatever color you want

Perfect. I knew about oceanFloor = false, but didn't think to try it.

EDIT: that worked great. This can be closed, me thinks
