IVA Maneuver Node Options

Recommended Posts

I'm looking for inspiration for what has been developed so far to allow the creation of Maneuver nodes outside the map screen. I specifically am looking to create some IRL interface to use with the KSPSerialIO mod. Trying to work out the amount of buttons and what logic is required.

I found the ALCOR version that initially used mechjeb and then created their own MFD interface which uses RPM.

 

I found this discussion on a proposed RPM MFD screen UI for creating maneuver nodes.

And there is this Telemachus example

 

 

Last options I found were KRPC using the function "NodeAddNode" and KOS with .ADD() - but these two example are outside what I'm looking for. I'm more after ideas around the UI.

Does anyone know of any other methods of create maneuver nodes (outside the MAP screen) other than those already mentioned?

FWIW, that first video of alexustas uses MAS, not RPM.  MAS is capable of a lot of maneuver node calculations (circularization, transfer orbits, etc), as well as direct entry of nodes (where you tell it the prograde, normal, and radial dV that you want).  I've got examples in a couple of the MFDs that ship with MAS.  None of them are visual interfaces like the Map screen - it'd be possible, but it'd also be really expensive to code (in terms of effort, and possibly performance) through the MAS interface.
