qRadar for YSFLIGHT

Welcome! This is the release, and source of qRadar for YSFlight.

Demo of YSRADAR v0.0.9 on youtube.

Visit the YSFHQ forum here

Current version - v0.0.11 DISCLAIMER: I am not a programmer, my code is messy, and got messier as I got more and more tired towards the end of this project!

Feature List

These are the current features of qRadar:

• Connect to a running YSFlight server
• Show aircraft currently flying on a chart
• Load .fld sceneries from YS as a background map for the chart
• Export the background .fld as a geojson for use in a GIS or for creating:
• Importing user created point and line geojson files as waypoints and flight lines/general lines
• Vectoring tool to get bearings and distances from two mouse clicks
• Aircraft flying list (showing who is currently in the air, their speed and altitude)
• Aircraft info tab - allowing the setting of a custom callsign
• User list - showing who is on the server, whether they're flying, what IFF, and how long they've flown
• Message log and chat window.

Many more being added daily! (Along with the obligatory bug fixes)

Upcoming features

(If they work....)

• In app waypoint and line creation (without having to import a geojson)
• Importing the .point and .line files from the original YSRADAR
• PAR (Precision Approach Radar)
• Processing of mod nav features (additional ILSs etc, currently only takes default ones)
• Faster log-in process! Is there a way to bypass the usual YS login? I don't need all the plane lists etc!

Any others, suggest them!

Required Python libraries for code

PyQt5 (pip install pyqt5)
PyQtDarkTheme (pip install pyqtdarktheme)
