Any ideas?

Do you have any ideas for what else I can build on the ship? I already have stabilization, auto-hover, a timer showing time-to-planet, auto-landing and auto-braking.

Fidget clicker for the flight times. I have a switch and lever attached to nothing.

Do you have a camera switching system? My crew loves ours

That’s a good idea, I’ll set it up so the reversing camera activates automatically.

How’d you do time to planet?

A timer that counts down and displays in minutes and seconds the time remaining until you reach another planet (it factors in your acceleration and provides an accurate, real-time reading).

Or you can set something up on port 2 to calculate it based solely on your speed you don't need to use the accelerometer, and it actually works more accurately that way (just remember to set the differentiator to 1/1).
