A-scope Radar Display [All Displays!]
[hr]
Introduction:
This [b]A-scope Radar Display[/b] is a compact, performance-optimized recreation of the early WWII-era vertical-line radar display. Designed for realism and clarity, it features a manually or automatically controlled sweeper that rotates a full 360° and visualizes target returns as signal spikes along a baseline. This system replicates the historic A-scope feel while displaying useful data like range, elevation, and bearing. Fully display-compatible, it works seamlessly on all screen sizes with identical performance impact, making it ideal even for multiplayer builds.
Features:

How to use:
[list]
[*] Flip the [b]Radar System ON[/b] switch
[*] Flip the [b]Manual Control ON[/b] switch to take control
[*] Use the [b]instrument panel or seat controls[/b] to rotate manually
[*] Press the [b]Cycle Range/FOV[/b] button to increase range and narrow field of view
[*] Use the narrowed FOV to pinpoint precise direction (0.125 at 5km to 0.01 at 20km)

[i]Note: Target detection is subtle — small signal spikes among noise indicate contacts. When the needle trail slightly changes color, you're on a return![/i]
Advanced Adjustments:
[b]Screen width and height adjustments (pixels):[/b]
This setting adds a border around the screen for use on smaller scopes and displays (pictured above). Set to 0 so it reaches all sides of the display.
[b]Exponential Adjustments:[/b]
This adjusts how smoothly the manual controls move. Increase for more smoothness.
[b][i]New:[/i] Minimum Radar Distance:[/b]
This setting is the minimum radar detection distance (m), below which targets are not detected. For example, if set to 50m, anything < 50 will not be displayed.
Super Duper Advanced Adjustments:
In the lua script, you can adjust the screen colors, placement of various lines, line lengths, auto/manual movement speed, and much more.
