[bandi94]

Runway illumination

WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO ADD IN THE FUTURE

Feel free to let me know anything that you guys would like me to add.

- The ability to create custom runways anywhere on any Planet/Moon

- Customize your runway : only ILS , only runway lights ( side ones ) , both of them, ILS lights on both ends , PAPI lights , etc..

Flight instruments

WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO ADD IN THE FUTURE

Feel free to let me know anything that you guys would like me to add.

- Better surface target waypoint / compass ( the current navball target waypoint it's not so great for planes )

- Distance to target , real alitude , etc ....

- The ability to select your custom runway as a target.

The finaly goal

The ability to navigate as easy as possible to any target with planes / SSTO , iluminate your landing place on any planet/moon for an easy SSTO landing.

I'd be happy to just have the runway lights at KSC! No other features would be necessary for me!

Yep, the first release will have only the KSC runway lights and the compass. The other functions will be added in updates.

I will make a release very soon.

Amazing! I have been looking for something like this for ages. I can't wait for the release.

Are you familiar with NavUtilities which adds an HSI? (see sig)? I have a custom runway editor in (really just creates a .cfg) there, and it might make sense for there to be integration between mods. I look forward to seeing this developed further, it fills a gap

Well no i am not familiar with NavUtilities. But my main class need's a latitude, longitude, width , length, rotation to add a new runway. So should not be a problem to import your runways and add light's to it.

...PAPI lights...

Just a heads up that PAPI arrays were done by this mod. It apparently still works in 0.90 but development seems stalled. The code is permissively licensed under MIT so you can make use of that.

will this mod be able to work with Mechjeb?
