This update is now live on the public beta (if this update is stable the default branch will also be moved to this version soon). It adds, among other things, compass directions for pushbacks and changes to radar tags (also known as radar labels).

Calculations have been added to the game to automatically detect the pushback end positions for facing north, east, south and west. This works well in most cases however always take a look in the pushback view window before sending the command. The pushback stop points are still visible in that window just that some now have N, E, S or W instead of a number.

Secondly, it is now possible to choose which data fields are visible on the radar tag depending on if the aircraft is selected, on frequency or off frequency. The settings can be found under the Radar Tags tab in Settings. Please note that if an aircraft is selected the information found on the tag is now displayed at the top of the pop up menu (and the radar tag does not change).

Thanks for playing!
