City Distances
NEW VERSION: City Distances v0.2.0
Description:
Ikariam uses a so called "breadcrumb" area. This is shown as a sort of title in the main view of the game ("You a here").
My script adds an hourglass icon to that area. When you hover over it, it shows a list of your towns and the time it takes for a cargo boat to get there.
You can also hover over a city and it shows a detailed list of all the units and their time to get to the island/town your viewing.
Works on:
Requirements:
Changelog:
v 0.1.1
I wrote this script, because I never had a good way of checking which one of my towns was closest to a given island. For example, when someone in my alliance ask for help becasue he's under attack, I went to the island and had to select all my cities one by one and check the distance by transporting units or goods.
I hope you find it as usefull as I do

Works on:
- World view - Select an island, and the data will refresh
- Island view - When viewing an island, it shows the time from your cities to that island
- Town view - When viewing a town, it shows the time between that city and your cities. (for example for viewing the distances between your own towns)
- All other views containing the 'breadcrumbs area' with coords in it.
Requirements:
- You need to show either 'trade goods' or coords in the town selection list
Changelog:
v 0.1.1
- Feature: Town names now include resource type (will be shown as an image in front of the name)
- Bugfix: Travel times for ships updated to Ikariam v0.3.2
- Feature: Current town is now highlighted
- Feature: In the Ikariam options page you can now select what type of cities should be shown: All cities, only your own cities, own cities and deployed cities or own cities and occupied cities
- Bugfix: When clicking an island it still calculated the times for all towns (not taking the options in account)

2 sections would be even better. Best of both worlds. Closest own town and closest allied/occupied town. Maybe even 3? Closest own town, closest allied town, closest occupied town. They're are broken up that way in the town list.
@Rryst,
i'm not that big of a pillager, so i mostly only have my own towns. I also don't have troops in allied towns atm. But it's a good that you mention it.
I did it like this, so you can easily check which is the closest. maybe we can find a middle way, by splitting it in 2 sections. own towns/'occupied' towns. I have to see if i can know this just from the code of the selection list. else i have to store the towns.
ofc i can use some option variable you can set, saying how it should be order as well.
Something else I was thinking, if it would highlight the currently 'active' town that would be great.

I think it's wrong for both. I tested to go from my xx:100 island to a xx-1:100 island travel time=33h 20m. I also tested to go from a island xx:98 to my xx:100 island the time where the same.@Tarache,
hmm, i didn't even know the coords went to 100. i thought it would be 99 as max. I'll take a look at it.
Do the times from a xx:yy to xx:100 go wrong or only from xx:100 to xx:100?

While the script does work in 0.3.2, the calculations are off for the warships. The speeds have been changed.
I have listed the new travel times for single island distances. The cargo ships are unchanged and are included as a reference.
Cargo: 20 min
Ram: 40 min
Ballista: 40 min
Flame: 30 min
Cat: 40 min
Mortar: 60 min
Paddle-wheel: 40 min
Dive: 30 min
If you use this script to calculate shipment times or spy travel times you will not be disappointed. The warships won't calculate right until the script is updated. I updated my local copy myself. It was not hard, I'm just not running an approved version anymore.

This happens also from xx:00 issland to a xx-4x island. Traveltime is 32 h and 14 min. But great script!I think it's wrong for both. I tested to go from my xx:100 island to a xx-1:100 island travel time=33h 20m. I also tested to go from a island xx:98 to my xx:100 island the time where the same.@Tarache,
