Metric/Imperial toggle switch for F10 map/Mission editor


Recommended Posts

Posted

Please, please, please can we have a toggle switch in the F10/Mission editor toolbar so we can instantly switch betwen using Nautical miles and Kilometres, AND another button to instantly switch between Magnetic and True headings, please?! both of these would be insanely useful, especially when using the ruler for distances and bearing! 2 extra buttons on the top toolbar would be all it would take!

There is already; in the ME, at the top, hit 'view' and you'll be able to select between imperial and metric units.

 

I don't think the same exists for the status bar and F10, but it does work for the ME (though at the moment you have to click off so that the controls on the right disappear and then when you reselect the units should've changed.

Please this is really important, why doesn't ED add a ingame toggle? (Is it in & I am missing it?)

We already can toggle between coordinate systems (very important feature to me!), why not Imperial/metric? Switching between western & soviet planes is a chore. Switching currently requires you to leave your current session, which is not an option.

One of the many QoL things ED is messing up for years imo.

Thanks devs! 🙂 There is a toggle button now in F10 map. And also a compass tool that shows magnetic and true heading. And the ruler shows both. Love it!
