Networklink turns a path into a hike adventure

The attached networklink turns this hiking track into a 3D hiking adventure.

After creating networklinks with realtime moving 3D planes and 3D cruises, I now tried a networklink with (not realtime) moving 3D people.
The models will walk along a given path (lineString) available from a (any) online *.kmz file. The path has to be within the doc.kml file within the *.kmz file.

I am also content with the controls I have put into the setting map (there are more coming up).
Activating a certain networklink will either turn the flyTo switch of or on, there fore it's easy to travel with your 3D companion, or go for a look around yourself while "it" continues "its" way.
On second visit (from the same IP) you'll be able to continue where you left the time before.
Now I'm working on speed-levels, so you might run instead of walk along the path.

Have fun.

This networklink (nwl) now has more options:

  • turn of/on the flyToView of the main nwl using a seperate "settings" nwl
  • return to the last position you were at when you stoped using the nwl
  • Grow or Slow A setting nwl that will either increase or decrease the models size by 2, and therefor change also the speed of the hike. The model can grow upto 6000 km tall

In GE 4.3 (great!) the view jumps when flyTo is on.
Temp. solution: set flyToView of and press once in a while on the networklink which has the actual position (description: x/y steps, q/z trackBits)
I'll write a permanent solution soon.

UPDATE april 21st: FlyTo now works fine in GE 4.3
