Flight director display

well then, more than on one occasion i found MJ unable to deal with the massive hulk of rocketware trusted upon it when launching my heaviest designs - those were best flown by hand, i found.....


no fault on MJ's part, really - those rockets are far past unreasonable to expect any chance of proper handling by any machine (the ASAS also goes berzerk)


so while i disabled the ascent autopilot and cleared the way for my trusty flighsim joystick, i thought how handy it would come to have MJ simply display the target vector for me so i could manually lead my ginormous flying monstrosity along the proper ascent path - i.e. a Flight DIrector!


so then, i was reading through the source code and noticed - most functions are wired up in a way that all the needed functionality for this is already available, needing few changes to allow one to toggle between full automation and passive flight direction (using the purple marker on the ADI)



thanks for the attention,


Moach
