I would love it if you can add the Terrain Alerting System because if you are in a Storm at Night and you are about to land you cant see the Mountains and Night sight also dont work in the clouds.
It is also good for role play.

true ig gpws would be nice

since the game knows the height of the terrain i dont see why

#

so that's quite little coding to do as well

#

just make it dont tigger when the gears are down

#

probably will work

i hope they add sink rate warning too

could be possible with raycast or how's called again, if the player is flying to the north the raycast should rotate itself to that aswell, and if the raycast detects basically something and you are below lets say 100 studs distant then it could play a sound, i guess.

I want GPWS

#

also we alrdy have the ground altitude things

#

1 thousand

#

3 hundred

#

those things

#

wold be easier to implement with straight raycast

sonic blaze
#

but we basically already have that in game

#

functionality would be no different

#

unless you mean a more accurate GPWS that gets all screwed up when you bank or pitch

hot hedge
#

no, I think he meant that when you're too low the "Terrain, pull up" warning pops up

#

that's why other ppl also suggested the "Sinkrate" warning to also be added

#

they're pretty simple to add

#

the Terrain, pull up is literally 2 lines

#

and sinkrate won't be more than 5 lines

#

also when I say lines I mean lines of code

#

all toghter wont be more than 5min to add

#

maybe a bit more for the voices

sonic cairn
#

i think that it should be not a problem to add these things, i mean its like you said done in 5mins and we already have the other GPWS functions

#

then they should finish this

sonic blaze
#

Those callouts are actually pretty complex

hot hedge
#

They’re mostly easy

#

Some can’t be added
