Atimeter?
Considered (Not Planned)
We desperately need an altimeter ( height above ground) and roll meter on the UI for atmospheric flight, as it is too easy to lose your ship by hitting the ground or mountains at night because of the darker nights on planets. also a roll meter would be useful when navigating the interior of asteroids and caves, also could you install a toggle for reverting the flight control system to SE1 style as it is very hard to control using the mouse due to old age problems with twitching muscles sending the ship into a wall of rock or an asteroid. Otherwise no problems with the Alpha build so far, Great job

Yep good idea, the cockpit displays should actually be useful.

General flight instruments would be good. Altimeter, Artificial Horizon, Airspeed Indicator... 8ball would work for space (Kerbal Style).

I agree, the first time landing on a planet is a pretty blind attempt, cause from above its very easily to miss how close one really is to the ground. Unless you descent not by deactivated damper but with the downward movement, wich takes ages.

Yes please. This would be a perfect use for the currently useless cockpit display. Perhaps even a real Navball instead of the blue-white simplified thing we have in SE1.

Definitely need the tools to navigate in the night, navigate in a storm!
Basic things to figure out altitude, orientation, direction.
But also some kind of night vision / hologram view to see shape of the terrain or asteroids (think green grid projected onto the terrain).

SE1 has Altitude. Why does SE2 not have this? Seems like a massive mistake, they forgot to add this

for the love of god, please give me back the level and altimeter, even if it's on the screens like in SE1... please I am tired of crashing because there is not feel of gravity (In RL, your body leans telling what is level, can't reproduce that in SE/SE2)

What altitude would you be measuring?
To average sea level or nearest ground point.
Would you measure the distance below an ocean's surface and the sea bottom?
If you are in a cave inside a mountain under the sea, what readings would be useful?
Should exterior pressure levels matter too?

A lot of cars have those proximity detectors that beep a lot when parking, would that not be a good thing to have.
I know that when I have been deep mining I have often reversed too quick and taken out my thrusters.
When water comes along I will probably need to know what crush depth is too.
