3. ATC (Air Traffic Controller) Systems  

Shows friendly & civilian planes on map with name, speed,  
altitude, and heading. Useful when commanding multiple  
planes. Information lines are consisted of the following  
three lines:  

Pilot's Name or Callsign  
Altitude Speed  
Heading  

Here, altitude is displayed in multiples of 10m or 100ft,  
so if the unit is set to "feet (x100ft)" and 083 is displayed  
as altitude, the actual altitude would be 8300ft.  

Pilot name/callsign & Vehicle callsign setting and units for  
speed & altitude can be changed at addon settings tab.  
Supports kph/knot for speed and meter/feet for altitude.  
To set a vehicle callsign, add this to the plane's init field:  
`[this, "My Callsign"] call orbis_atc_fnc_setCustomCallsign;`  
If no vehicle callsign is set, it defaults to the unit's  
group ID.  

To enable this feature, you need to add the following code  
to the target object's init field:  
`[this, _radarMode, _distance] call orbis_atc_fnc_addRadarScreen;`  

The `_radarMode` (default: 1) parameter works in 3 modes:  
0: Civilian, same side or civilian side aircraft only  
1: Military, civilian mode plus radar detected aircraft  
2: Observer, all alive aircraft  

The `_distance` (default: 10) parameter is a number type  
parameter which determines how far the controller can move  
from the radar monitor. Zero or negative `_distance` value  
will allow an infinite distance.  

When using Military mode, custom parameters can be used:  
`monitor setVariable ["orbis_atc_radarParams", [radarObject, isMaster]]`  
monitor: Monitor object the atc radar Interaction was added  
radarObject: Radar object (default: monitor)  
isMaster: displays all airborne objects if true (default: false)  

`radar setVariable ["orbis_atc_performanceParams", [radarPos, radarRange, counterStealth, volumeCR, groundCR]]`  
radar: radarObject from "orbis_atc_radarParams"  
radarPos: Position of the radar, can be object or position ASL (default: radar)  
radarRange: Standard detecting range for RCS 5m^2 vehicle in km (default: 30)  
counterStealth: No effect for now (default: 0)  
volumeCR: Volume clutter reduction ratio (default: 1000)  
groundCR: Ground clutter reduction ratio (default: 1000)  

`radar setVariable ["orbis_atc_radarDetailParams", radarDetailParams]`  
radar: Radar object  
radarDetailParams: Radar detail parameters (default: [])  

`radarDetailParams` can be used in two modes: preset/custom.  
The list of available presets is as follows:  
`"APS-11"`: used in airports as surveillance radar  
`"AN/APG76"`: used in A-6, weak against rain  
`"AN/APS145"`: used in E-2C, weak against ground clutter  

When using custom values, the parameters are as follows:  
`radarDetailParams = [radarFrequency, pulseWidth, azimuthBeamwidth, elevationBeamwidth]`  
radarFrequency: Frequency of radar beam in GHz (default: 16.5)  
pulseWidth: Pulse width of radar beam in micro seconds (default: 1.25)  
azimuthBeamwidth: Azimuth beam width in degrees (default: 2.2)  
elevationBeamwidth: Elevation beam width in degrees (default: 3.8)  

Military ATC radar includes tools for GCI. When clicking on  
radar markers on map, a circle will appear around the marker  
and lines will be displayed from friendly/civilian aircraft  
to bogie/bandit aircraft. Bearing, distance, radial speed,  
altitude difference and relative vertical speed will be shown  
for ATC controller to provide target information to pilots or  
coordinate intercepts.
