Credits
🚀Massive thanks to RocketWerkz, Dean Hall and all of the devs for making KSA possible!

Also, thanks to the many community members who helped and contributed to making this mod possible in one way or another, including:
  • Lexi for making the original KSAModLoader
  • KlaasWhite for making and maintaining StarMap
  • MrJeranimo for making ModMenu
  • Dejvid for making the Avionics mod, invaluable for initial code reference
  • tom_is_unlucky, Pimiento and others for helping to solve some issues
Features:
  • HUD renders even when the rest of the UI is hidden, this is intended
  • Use the Mod dropdown menu to toggle the HUD on/off, and access the Settings menu
  • The HUD is responsive to resolution and aspect ratio, so it should work for HD/2K/4K resolutions, the line and text size scaled with vertical resolution
  • Color, text and line scale customization (more coming)
  • Save HUD Settings button writes to hud.ini to save your preferences
Limitations:
  • The HUD is only rendered below 1,000 km altitude currently
  • Roll does not align to the world except in Chase camera mode, this is intended for now
Planned:
  • Align roll to horizon in any camera orbit mode
  • Possibly integrate with other mods in the future such as Avionics
  • Let me know if you have any suggestions/ideas!
