[Celestia-developers] setting individual constellation color in celx

[vincent <vin...@fr...>]

As Chris suggested on the forum (
http://www.shatters.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12085&start=40 ), the following
patch adds the celestia:setconstellationcolor and
celestia:unsetconstellationcolor methods to celx scripting:
http://vincent.gian.club.fr/celestia/constellationcolor.patch

To keep consistent with show/hideconstallation, the fourth argument of
setconstellationcolor -- the list of constellation names -- is a table.

Examples:
-- Make all constellations blue
celestia:setconstellationcolor(0, 0, 1)

-- Make Leo and Virgo red
celestia:setconstellationcolor(1, 0, 0, {"Leo", "Virgo"})

-- Make zodiacal constellations green
zodiac = {"Pisces", "Aries", "Taurus", "Gemini", "Cancer", "Leo", "Virgo",
"Libra", "Scorpius", "Ophiuchus", "Sagittarius", "Capricornus", "Aquarius"}
celestia:setconstellationcolor(0, 1, 0, zodiac)

-- Set all constellation colors back to the default
celestia:unsetconstellationcolor()
