MFD or Visual Helper Request: Docking Port Numbers

[craigh]

Hi all,

I've been mucking about and building stations lately with a lot of docking involved. Between launches and using the Scenario Editor, the following would be really handy:

What I'd love to see is either an addition to the "Visual Helpers" tab or an MFD that can quickly allow the user to see and ID the number of that docking port they are aiming for.

Ideally, those numbers could show up in the HUD just floating over the docking port, freeing up one of the two standard MFD windows.

I'd try to write it myself but haven't begun learning how to deal with coding such things. The time I have is being used to transfer my AutoCad skills to Anim8or, Blender, and G-Max (I really wish Auto-Cad files transfered cleanly to G-Max).

Thanks for thoughts, suggestions, or just brainstorming.

Thanks,

That one does partially do what I was thinking, maybe it's just adding the floating numbers component...
