Title: Range Plot plugin missing
Post by: Lincolnshire Poacher on February 01, 2026, 10:50:46 AM
Help. I am new to VRS, I have it connect3d to my Raspberry pi. its showing I am picking up plenty of aircraft, I have the Silhouettes and flags showing ok.

I now want the range plots, I couldn't find it anywhere, then I checked the plugins and found I have none.

Can anyone guide me to finding and installing the required plugin please?

Can you describe "range plots"?  Do mean a bearing and distance to a selected aircreft from your home location or range rings, such as these shown in BaseStation?

Or the range you're receiving, such as the attached?

This is what I mean, I believe you can get different colours depending on the range.

Thanks.

I'm not a regulat VRS user.  But looking at the VRS documentation, range plots can be configured using Map options.  However, I can't see an option to enable or disable them.

I've configured my VRS to show Range Plots (as per the documentation) but they don't display for me!
