Fake Plotting Marker

[Miro Beero]

Please allow me to right click on any surface of a planet and add a "landing marking" or something. It's very hard to land on some parts of a planet trying to get a temperature scan constantly flipping between Map Mode and chase mode to see if I'm landing "close enough" to the right spot to get a contract.

Would be nice to be able to setup a fake "target" or something. So when in chase mode, you have something to visually aim for.

Would the Inflight Waypoints mod help?

That might be it.

I will have to try it later and see how easy it is to use.

That mod is absurdly helpful. The only way it could be better is if there was a way to show closest approach markers, and maybe a permanent waypoint for KSP complex.

Obviously it isn't realistic that you could simply look through your window, or space suit face plate, and see a giant arrow pointing where you need to go. Well, until you research advanced LED tech it isn't realistic..however it is practically expected in video games.

It can be extremely hard to tell if you are going in the right direction. Showing a symbol on the navball helps, but it seems silly when I have my rocket do a 360 just to check which direction the target is in.

With remote tech you get a permanent marker on the KSC. Rly helpful
