Plan for Mike Kuklinski

Our plan for Kuiper is to integrate a cockpit. However, to get a real cockpit working, we needed to be able to render the HUDs on parts of the cockpit? The solution? Rendering to a texture.

After many hours of work, and a lot of help from Ben Garney and Xavier Amado, I was able to successfully render the HUD to a shape in TSE.

I had to set up a separate GuiCanvas and pushDialogs into it. They were set to render to a TextureHandle, which the shape picks up in it's material.


You have no idea how cool that is. Everything functions--- I accelerate, the acceleration bar increases, etc.
