Python Kramax flight plan filer

[Aerostar Research]

I'm making a Python thing that lets you select waypoints and string them into a flight plan. Doesn't choose WP's for you just yet, given start and end location, but it will have a big waypoint database and it will format it for insertion into FlightPlans.cfg

Background: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/150846-121-kramax-autopilot-continued-course-guidance-and-auto-land-for-spaceplanes/

Kramax Autopilot Continued, second revival of Pilot Assistant

The waypoint definitions in DefaultFlightPlans.cfg and FlightPlans.cfg look a little like this:

Spoiler

WayPoint
                {
                    Vertical = true
                    lat = -0.050185
                    lon = -73.2137677633588
                    alt = 3000
                    name = WP_EAST
                }

Submit your own ideas for where to place waypoints. Use the format. Idea: name them as "[cool site] VOR" if they're specific to a KerbinSide base or a Kerbal Konstructs Base you would build. For general airway waypoints, just give them five-letter identifiers.

link to project folder NOW HAS AN ALPHA VERSION! Limited nav DB, run it in a Python3 interpreter, e.g. this one

EDIT: Kramax is evil in 1.2.2 and nobody knows why. @linuxgurugamer the issue seems to be with heading holds and with pitch/speed balance. It can't set up the plane to stay above stall speed. Pls fix thx!

I am aware of it, don't have an answer yet, sorry

No biggie. I can just hand-fly them but it's no fun.

In addition to the weird heading holds, why does it not account for stalls?? Your autopilot is slightly dangerous in that regard
