Hi Christian, I'm a french user of therion and use it for caves and also ancient mines as I'm an archaeologist specialised in this domain. I think it could be interesting to share our practise with this software, to see what feets well our needs and we specially need... So, if you think the same, let me know !!

Good day,

first let me introduce myself, perhaps: I am (of course) new to the Therion list. Well, I am from southern germany, the black forest, to be exact; and I am primarily interested in abandoned mines, not in caves. So I went on the search for a capable map-making software, found Therion and started with it - please bear with my as I am posting surely some stupid beginner's mistakes.

Very nice software, Therion, by the way; and many thanks to the developers.

But I have some problems. We are used to make lrud data when surveying mines, so I am bound to lrud (left-right-up-down I mean). I have come as far as mapping a single centerline successfully, but when I try to join two centerlines at the appropriate point I am stuck. I have tried al lot of possible join-syntaxes, so I fear my error lies perhaps deeper.

I always get: | therion: error -- can not connect 0@Eisenbach_2.Eisenbach to centerline | network

I have a master file [eisenbach_hotel.thconfig] with just one line in it: | source eisenbach_hotel.th

[eisenbach_hotel.th] reads: | survey Eisenbach -title "Hotelstollen Eisenbach Intervall 1" | input eisenbach_hotel_intervall_1.th | input eisenbach_hotel_intervall_2.th | join Eisenbach_2@0 Eisenbach_1@15.25:end | #join 0@Eisenbach_2.Eisenbach 14@Eisenbach_1.Eisenbach | endsurvey

If I out-comment one input line, no matter which, and insert an appropriate line with export in other place man I can successfully generate a background image for both after compiling, so I think the two data sets are ok. I have inserted these two sets below.

Please, can anyone give me a functioning join line, or, if the error lies elsewhere, point me in the right direction?

Many thanks, Christian
