This mod adds a lesser power, which when used, gives a description of a vague sense of the players position in relation to the nearest major settlement.
"You think you are far to the north-west of Whiterun" for example will be the notification text displayed
Useful for mods like NavigateVR or Skills of the Wild perhaps

Changelogs
Version 0.9
Fixed math and angle calculations
Lets pretend the player dosnt have GPS like in vanilla, maybe the player marker or map is removed because you are using NavigateVR (with no map at all options ) or Skills of the Wild ( no player marker on map)
But lets also pretend the dragonborn knows Skyrim... somewhat?, vaguely, like where the cities are, can look at the stars and the sun and the geography and make a guess of where they are, so that is what this mod does.
Safe to add to ongoing save, no constantly running quests or scripts, only fired when power activated.
No dependencies required.
Can only be used usefully in exterior worldspaces, if used in a city with its own worldspace itll just say "You are in Solitude" or whatever.
Non-Skyrim worldspaces will result in a "You have no idea where you are" because lets pretend the player isnt familiar with Bruma or Solstheim etc
Made this for myself really to make NavigateVR more viable with the UI map turned off , as that mod is great, but then you really have no idea where you are on the map.
Two future plans:-
Tie into Campfire skill tree, or Skills of the Wild skilltrees, so that the precision becomes better as you level up those skills Tie into NavigateVR so that the notification pops up every time you equip the compass item maybe.
