Native RDF

vSMR draws radio-direction cues from TrackAudio's feed. TrackAudio must run on the same computer, and a transmitting callsign must match a target in the current scene.

Enable or disable

Enter .smr rdf on or .smr rdf off. The choice is remembered. Off hides the native overlay immediately; the receiver remains available rather than blocking the UI while waiting for a network worker to stop. On can restore an ongoing transmission.

Ground-aircraft indications are suppressed in SRW according to the scene's airborne classification.

On the native SMR view, an aircraft hidden beneath an inset produces a direction line toward it instead of a ring concealed by the inset.

Avoid duplicate overlays

A separately loaded RDFPlugin can draw its own overlay, unaffected by .smr rdf off. Ensure only the intended plug-in draws on the SMR radar display. If the separate RDFPlugin needs changes, consult its maintainer; vSMR does not modify that plugin.

Other radar displays can retain their separate RDF behavior. Test native off/on during an active transmission and while TrackAudio is idle.
