FlyDangerous VS EDDLite

It was never really intended to be a replacement (all the plant stuff happened way after I started work on it!) but rather a fun little training ground side-project which has slowly become its' own thing. That said if you wanna help drive the direction of the development, we discuss a lot of features and stuff on the discord and the game is open source so please feel free to get involved in whatever ways you can (even if that's just lending your opinion on the current state of the game or filing bugs or whatever!) <3

Yeeeah that took me a while to get used to as well (actually got used to the game flat screen first, that definitely helped!) but when I did I started working on a whole game around the concept because I love flying like a lunatic in VR :D

Yes! That's on the roadmap

Oh lord, I learned this the hard way and it consumed my life for months.

As usual the code for this flight controller is here and is reliant on a flight assist model detailed here.

It's smooth because it's pretty simple, and the floating origin script operates in fixed update and everything using it subscribes to an event to make sure all corrections are in the same timestep.

(In case you haven't done so yet I suggest running EDDiscovery or EDDLite so it'll be recorded/updated to EDAstro.)

My personal choice at the moment is EDMC; it has plugin support with some being very useful for exploration. Already mentioned is EDDiscovery - this is a more 'full on' tool but it's packed with features. There's also a new-ish one I've not yet tried myself that's designed to be far more light-weight; EDDLite.

So another very light weight tool to consider that's almost purely for contributing data to the EDDN: EDDLite. It doesn't do much else aside from automatic screenshots converting and offering direct links to your ship build etc.

If you are exploring in the black, mapping new systems, you would also need to run something like EDDI or EDDLite configured to send data to ESDM.net for the best experience.

It is still best to use something like EDDI or EDDLite to send data EDSM but ICARUS Terminal will blend that data with your local scan data to provide real time updates to a second screen as you explore when using a Discovery Scanner, Full Spectrum Scanner or Surface Scanner.

EDDiscovery or EDDiscovery Lite (also EDMC can be used) I haven't even dug into the wealth of information gathered by EDD myself yet, but for me at least the main purpose of one of these applications is to automatically scan and upload your discoveries to data networks like EDSM and EDAstro, in an attempt to track the discoveries of the galaxy.

If you don't like the features, at least consider EDDLite for the real time benefits, complete data reporting, and, perhaps most important, giving back to the community and improving the game and tools for everyone.

EDDiscovery Lite

Exactly what EDDLite is for!
