Maps a network in a text-based tree format or possibly a gui

EpicKnarvik97 commented 2 years ago

As there is a limitied user interface, it would be best to use a simpler approach which still gives the necessary information:

It could work by just displaying a list of portals in the network and some simple symbolism (only an example): ¤-> = normal networked ¤-| = fixed. display "source -> target"

-| = fixed and hidden on network

-> = hidden on network

¤O> = normal networked, always-on, always-on ¤O| = fixed. display "source -> target", always-on

O| = fixed and hidden on network, always-on

O> = hidden on network, always-on

Perhaps use # for hidden and ¤ for non-hidden. Perhaps use O for always on, and - for not.

Perhaps add a symbol for always on vs. not.

Hmm. There should probably be a symbol for random as well. It's generally hard to find descriptive symbols, but I guess they can be changed over time.

Right now, the only thing missing is to make all icons configurable.
