related items automatically within range was created by hede

I need to display items (google maps locations which have lat and lng) as related items within a certain lat/lng range of the currently displayed item. I dont want to set up the related items by hand. How would I set up the uni module to display this range of items?

Cheers

PS: Thanks for all the fixes in my other issue reports.

use fields scope and you can use

Code:

IDfield##Valuefield1---Valuefield2

FLEXIcontent is Free but involves a very big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite being huge extension) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

Thx for the suggestion, but I would need to do a calculation like:

IDfield##(Valuefield1 + parameter --- Valuefield2 + parameter )+++...

"parameter" being in the
first use case:
- user entered parameter from front end
second use case:
- parameter from the back end of my maps module
third use case:
- IDfield##(get Value of currently displayed item 'field1' + parameter)+++...

Can this be done?
