Map compass

[HagarTheHorrible]

How about a small dragable button compass for the map during the mission brief ?

 

Drag the compass to the line depicting the various routes on the map so that you can take bearings for your flight.

Good idea, this would be very useful. Even better if you could use it in flight to plot diversions.

This kind of thing dont require a interactive overlay over game screen?

Like Map Tools... customizable windows...clickable cockpit...

Taking it a little further.  How about, if you are a flight leader, being able to, from the mission briefing map, adjust the route and altitude of the flight ?  In much the same way as you adjust curves in the controller responses part of the U.I, it would be possible to drag and drop the points for an existing flight plan, add points in and if you clicked on the flight plan line you would get a dialogue box with the compass bearing and altitude, the latter being adjustable (within reasonable parameters).
