uk-topsky-controller-pack's Issues

Draw OCAS rather than CAS on conditional Airspace

Due to some weirdos having different active/inactive sector background colours, TopSky maps with regions appear with the wrong colour when using this feature. As a workaround OCAS should be drawn to ensure colour is the same regardless of setup

N601(D) Display Conditions

Available:
Monday to Friday 1700-0900 (1 hr earlier in Summer)
Friday 1500 (or day preceding a PH) to Monday 1000 (or day following a PH) (1 hr earlier in Summer)
...unless notified by Swanwick Mil/vNOTAM of military activity.

Add zoom dependant maps

Add maps/feaatures dependant on zoom level

  • RMAs
  • RAVSA Rings
  • Extended C/Ls at smaller airfields

N864 north of EGPH Display Conditions

Available from 0001 Saturday to 2359 Sunday, unless notified by Swanwick Mil/vNOTAM of military activity. UK FIS shall be provided outside of the active times.

N57/N601/T256/N864 Airspace Bases

Daily from 0700-2000 winter (summer 1 hour earlier) between Dean Cross DME (DCS) and 540532N 0023208W the lower limit is FL125 making the MNM FL (southbound) FL130 and MNM FL (northbound) FL140.

Independent colour for FAVA's

Final Approach Vectoring Area adopts the same colour as the rest of the SMAA.

I know this isn't the case at EDI, and may not be the case at some other aerodromes. Allows for less clutter and prevents an eyesore in a safety critical area of the airspace.

Allow installation of pack in any folder

EuroScope is able to recognise relative paths in the profile files, thus allowing the controller pack to be used from any folder. This will remove the requirement for the pack to be in the Documents\EuroScope folder and for EuroScope to be started using a correctly configured shortcut.

In my opinion this reduces the number of issues encountered when installing and the default method is a pain to get working correctly on some non-standard installations (such as mine).

The only caveat is that when first opening an ASR for the first time a dialogue box may appear asking if the active sector file should be used as the specified sector file could not be found. Answering 'Yes' will then cause the desired operation. I do not believe that this will appear if the controller pack is located in the Documents\EuroScope folder (and in this case the pack should work just as normal).

Feel free to ignore this issue if you wish.

Create file with MSA data for UK

The file TopSkyMSAW.txt to be created to contain the data displayed geographically in the UKAIP at ENR 6-81 (UK Area Minimum Altitudes).

Review Danger Area Activation after b13 incorporation

Bug fixes to Maps data file loading (shouldn't complain about multiple ACTIVE lines anymore)

Danger areas were added with b12, adn mu;tiple lines for each area added due to issues with b12 handling of more than one active line.
