Creating a Profile that Starts at Mars
I have created a profile that starts at Mars.
At first I had the init file jump to a bookmark that I created on Mars, but while Uniview would go to Mars, it would not go to the bookmark. In fact, it seemed to break the bookmark so that it was no longer where it was originally created. I was able to go to a specific location by using jumpto coords instead. Is that a bug, or can you not have Uniview start at a bookmark anywhere but Earth?
I also noticed that the Geoscope window still shows Earth even though Uniview is at Mars. I have to go into the library and select Mars to get the Geoscope to show Mars. Is there a way to correct that?
Is there a preferred way to start at another object with a bookmark?

Hi Paul,
Currently it is not possible to start Uniview up at a bookmark. You can always start it up targeting a particular module object by changing that in the Starting Location in the profile editor, but that is the only way that we currently allow you to change where you are starting at.
As far as geoscope not changing to the object you start up on, that seems to be a bug. I will log it.
I have profiles that start at bookmarks for Earth and they work just fine, that is why I thought it would work for Mars.
