Marked outdated and added replacement application line

'''Skyline''' was a mapping and navigation application created by [[StarCitizen:The Ark]] and installed on every [[StarCitizen:mobiGlas]]. It was designed to interface with ship computers to aid in automated navigation and wayfinding.

The replacement application now in-game, reworked to avoid the development blockers inherent to '''Skyline''', is instead named after the same Ark program [[StarCitizen:Star Map]].
[[File:Starmap Guide 3.13.1 - mobiGlas Home Screen.jpg|thumb|To access the starmap from your mobiGlas, select the "Skyline" button at the bottom of the screen (fourth button from the left).]]

==Accessing the Skyline app==
There are two ways you can access your starmap:
#Open up your mobiGlas by pressing '''<big>F1</big>''', then select the ''Skyline'' button in your app list.
#Access the app instantly by pressing '''<big>F2</big>'''.

{{Note|'''Note:''' The starmap app will receive an update at an unknown future date. This guide is current as of 2021-05-23 ([[StarCitizen:Star Citizen Alpha 3.13.1|Alpha 3.13.1]]).}}

*To center and zoom the starmap in on your current position, click the button at the top with the circular target symbol.
*Double-click on a celestial object or space station to zoom in on it.
*Single-click on a celestial object or space station to select it for navigation purposes. Details about your selected target will appear in the information box at the top right.
==Quirks, bugs, and workarounds==
===Map objects do not show up===
Double right click to zoom your view out all the way to the system view. If there still aren't any map objects showing up, close your mobiGlas and re-enter the starmap. (This step may need to be repeated multiple times. The map will eventually launch in working order)
===Route plotter isn't plotting a route to my destination===
This usually occurs when a large object, such as a planet, is obstructing your direct-line flightpath. Choose another destination which is not obstructed and navigate around the celestial body.
