Normal and Radial Icons on Navball


Recommended Posts

Would be great to see these markers in navball too. Right now navball is more suitable for aircrafts, most of which never fly sideways, nor bank more than 30 degrees. But spaceships need normal and radial vectors very often, and right now navball lacks these important indicators.

For instance, if you are on an inclined circular orbit, prograde and retrograde markers are some degrees off 90 and 270, and constantly moving, so finding radial direction is hard. If you are on an elliptic orbit, both normal and radial are hard to deduct and catch. I have to add expendable maneuver nodes to find where to aim at.

Would be great improvement in orientation.
