-
Bugs:
- Handle showing time appropriately -> Should always show local time of flight, not local time of browser!!!
-
UI Improvements
-
Store config in localStorage
-
Keep track points visible for x minutes.
-
When a task is abandoned, on the flight summary screen display how much of the task was done instead of the total distance.
- I should add a new calculated value for "remaining task km" and then a min stat for it
-
Replays:
- When playing a flight, everytime a thermal finishes it's average animates on the map. Like when points are collected in platform game.
- Add ability to export replay as a video
- Track gradient based on stat (e.g. vario, speed, altitude, etc)
-
-
Phases
- Click thermal to see vertical chart of that thermal (i.e. to understand if I'm using a thermal for too long - i.e. should have left earlier!).
- Highlight current row in altitude chart + flight track
-
Stats
- Thermals
- % left vs right
- # tries (duration less than 45s)
- High point, low point, altitude gain
- Glides
- Implement Netto as a stat, it's a great indicator of how well you've
picked your route (i.e. did you manage to stay in lift?)
- It can be used as an average / mean to show an aggregated view, but also to colour the flight track to show where you got the track wrong!
- Average glide distance (distance between thermals)
- Implement Netto as a stat, it's a great indicator of how well you've
picked your route (i.e. did you manage to stay in lift?)
- Other
- Wind calculation: http://blueflyvario.blogspot.com/2012/09/calculating-wind-speed-from-gps-track.html
- Use radar chart to display task stats: Number of climbs, avg climb rate, number of glides, median glide length, median glide speed
- Thermals
Crazy Ideas:
- Integrate flarm - as you navigate flight, you see all planes that were there at that moment.
- Do flight plans with "local airfield" calculation for planning flights in the alps, like you can with this: https://www.glideplan.com/styled-2/page8/index.html
