Ground Stations will now see a warning whenever they access the Options.Home Location dialog, reminding them of the importance of the accuracy of their Home Location. If you configure PlanePlotter to display alerts, you can now click on any aircraft that appears in the Alert window and PlanePlotter will switch to the chart, outline or list view to show you the selected aircraft in context. No, it does not plot Moon phases if you need an exactly representational image to enable you to identify the Moon correctly, well.
This was primarily to make the progressive colour of the sunset detectable. To forestall comment, the Sun and the Moon are deliberately plotted slightly larger than their actual scale size. Restart PlanePlotter if it really matters to you. Accordingly, if PlanePlotter runs for a long period of time, the plotted position of the Moon, in particular, will become progressively less accurate (it moves about half a degree an hour against the starry background). To avoid adding yet more processing load to PlanePlotter, the celestial coordinates of the Sun, Moon and planets are calculated only at program startup. The simple Mercator-style projection used for the display distorts at high elevations. You can drag the sky view left and right, but you cannot look up. You can also associate the"My sky" view with a Quick button, if you wish. You can switch between a regular chart/outline view and the "My sky" view, using F11. The sky is always clear blue to comply with the frequent requests for a button in PlanePlotter to make it so. It is greatly superior, when it comes to identifying aircraft visually, than arranging a map or chart to show your viewing direction at the top - the merits of which, I could never understand. This display is similar to what you could already see using the appropriate viewpoint in Google-Earth, but requires no setting up. In case you wondered, it switches to the nightime view when the Sun sets. For reference, the daytime view includes the Sun and Moon and the nighttime view includes the Moon, bright stars and planets. This should make it easier to identify contrails by day and strobe lights by night. It presents a perspective view of the sky as seen from the ground, with the aircraft (plus contrails if enabled) displayed against the sky background.
This is a new way of visualising traffic around your home location. If your firewall is version-specific, and if you want to use the sharing feature or other Internet resources such as maps and satellite images, you will need to allow the new version to access the Internet by using your firewall settings. Your PlanePlotter settings will be carried forward to the new version.
