Any update on the 'Exception: NullReferenceException' issue?

Thanks - I'll dust this off and take a look!

i think it should work eitherway which ever you used...

Hey @Pencil - just wondering if you are still making changes to this mod?
The reason, I have looked over the code and may have a fix for the 'Exception: NullReferenceException' issue.

You have multiple if checks for the following
if ((MyPlayer.ownedShip != null) & (Camera.main != null))

I think the issue is with the &. it should be &&, which is the c# AND operator.
& is the bitwise logical AND.

so the if checks should be
if ((MyPlayer.ownedShip != null) && (Camera.main != null))

This mod is so awesome, it should be standard for the game. Such beautiful scenarios should be viewed in all angles.

One other point about #1 in my post below. Wasn't it annoying when it said you discovered towns that you didn't even see?

This mod is awesome! I always thought the camera was a pain in the arse. But now you can...

1) Zoom out far enough to see the same amount that is depicted by your "view circle" that's on the minimap.

And when you zoom in....

2) I no longer crash into difficult beaches when "de-fogging" a new map quadrant (following the outer edges and then along the inner beaches.) It's a lot easier to see what's truly shallow or not.

3) Plus, you can actually see sunken loot under the water before you even get the dive suit cue.

One other part I like (even though it's kinda cheating)...

4) If you are on a map with pirates that keep hiding, you can zoom all the way in and rotate the camera 360 degrees to find out where they are. Even when they are not on the minimap!

I been playing this game for a while now, but it started getting dull. You brought back life to my game! Thanks!

(Now if only you can make the zoom in so far that you appear at the helm of your ship.)

Very good mod. I can now see the Windward world from many different angles. Keeps the game fresh.
