Advanced Question How to display radar and it's range in simulation

[xjflcf520]

I want to know haw to add some radars in the simulation, and display it's detecting range.

You can do it through coding, the API allows you to do stuff like that, but that's it. There are probably a couple of MFDs around that simulate radar systems, might be an idea looking into this (there are 1500+ addons on OrbitHangar...)

Urwumpe’s SensorMFD? https://orbithangar.com/showAddon.php?id=d589a2a3-f26e-4ef8-b81d-66f2a7097cf4
Otherwise, IMFD Find tool can point the vessel at any celestial body that is visible, then in OrbitMFD, changing the reference body will call out its range. VOR/VTOL can give you direction and range for spacecraft not too far away in visual mode.

Thank you very much for your reply. I will look for the plug-ins I need
