, you will have to supply this using the ILS parameter (see below).main.mcf
, you will have to supply a direction manually to the tool (see below).main.mcf
is not close enough to your flight plan origin, the position and direction of your aircraft gets set to the first checkpoint in your flight plan.Usage: nodejs index.js [PARAMETERS...]
Parameters:

-i, --ils ILS frequency like '123.45'
-d, --direction Initial orientation of aircraft

This tool may also output a flight plan.
As the generated file is a text file, it can be edited with any kind of text editor. You will have to use manual editing to stitch together a mission file for multiple missions.
If you want to redistribute your mission file, you may want to include these generic installation instructions.
