Advanced Jet HUD

This is a general use HUD for jets or other aircraft. It has many features that assist with flight, and is very easy to set up.

The HUD displays altitude(100s of ft), change in altitude (ft/s), speed (knots), and orientation indicators. It uses a pitch ladder with labeled marks for each 10 degree interval, and roll is measured by 7 markers 15 degrees apart from each other. It also has an indicator at the top for the bearing/heading (depends what you put into the system).

There is also a marker for the velocity vector, marked with the prograde marker (a circle with lines up, left, and right). The marker moves based on the angle of the velocity vector, where it will go from end to end of the screen if the velocity is completely to the left, right, up, or down.

The controller also simulates the G's pulled when flying. In real life, the HUD works with a projection onto a clear screen. When pulling high G's, the pilot moves up or down or to the left or right, which makes the HUD projection move around on the screen. The controller uses the acceleration to move around the whole display.

The HUD is capable of displaying up to 7 radar targets at a time. The controller is calibrated to the HUD being as close as it can be to a compact pilot seat, in front of the headrest.

The controller has two settings:

• You can enable or disable a filled in background, this paints in the sky and ground.
  
• You can change the amount of sway produced by pulling G's. This is helpful if you don't like the feature or just have sensors in a place that makes them more or less sensitive to the forces.

This was designed completely by myself, as well as some help from the kind people on the Stormworks discord for some of the math. If you would like to use this in one of your creations, please feel free to do so. If you post it on the workshop, it would be appreciated if you gave credit.
