Danke Roar für diese äußerst brauchbare Tool. Es ist seinen Preis mehr als wert! Aber etwas mehr Dokumentation wäre angenehm. Für die V4 gibt es so gut wie nichts. Wäre wichtig nachdem auch die UI verändert wurde. Kleiner Vorschlag zur Verbesserung: Bei den Toggles "PT" und "ST" kann der jeweilige Zustand nicht erkannt werden. Das ist immer ein nerviges Glücksspiel. Ein echtes Problem: Bei den "MSFS POIs" wird gesetzte Altitude ignoriert. Das führt dazu, dass man manchmal mitten in einen Denkmal landet. Außerdem ist der einmal gewählte "MSFS POI" hartnäckig. Auch wenn man eine anderen Startpunkt (z.B. in der Karte) auswählt, landet man immer wieder bei dem ursprünglichen POI. English by "translate.google.de": Thank you Roar for this extremely useful tool. It is more than worth its price! But a little more documentation would be pleasant. There is almost nothing for the V4. Would be important after the UI was also changed. Small proposal for improvement: With the Toggles "PT" and "ST", the respective state cannot be recognized. This is always an annoying gambling. A real problem: Altitude set is ignored at the "MSFS POIs". This means that you sometimes end up in the middle of a monument. In addition, the "MSFS POI" once chosen is persistent. Even if you select a different starting point (e.g. on the map), you end up with the original POI.

Great little utility. I find this nifty tool very useful, especially when working on custom sceneries, as it allows me to hop from one custom scenery to another with the click of a mouse when I need to add to or correct them. Thank You :-)
