Orbit direction indicator

[NecroBones]

Yes, this would be particularly useful for polar orbits. I always lose track of which direction they're going.

[Werwolf]

Simple addition that would save some headaches. Even the most veteran demolition te... err, rocket scientist amongst us makes this mistake.

This thread makes a good suggestion: fade the orbit's path along its length.

Less line equals less visual clutter, right?

Bringing my own thread back from the dead because it is all still relevant.

So I had a contract just a few hours ago, putting a satalite into XXXXXXorbit, whatever. to my surprise, the orbit the contract needed was displayed in the map view, along with some lights indicating the direction required. these are what we need displayed on all orbits.

Edit: is that a fine print feature, or is that a mod i added?

That's fine print. I was just about to suggest using that feature which has already been implemented.

[Bill Phil]

yeah you do that and mods can lock my thread. ill support you in yours.

I meant on this thread.... What do you mean mods can lock this thread? Wouldn't it make sense to keep using it so there's less links in the suggestions forum?
