Flying Carpet

It's clear to me that the Hale Telescope Addon won't be ready for some months more since there are so many details that aren't right yet :(

So I've diverted some effort into a project that uses some of the Telescope's Lua control functions. I hope it'll be ready this coming weekend, even though it's only 90% finished ;)

It's a flying carpet.



Here it is hovering over the southern section of the Hale Observatory's property.

I could probably make it available as-is, but there are a few things I'd like to improve.

1. Reorient carpet and its motion relative to local down. This is relatively difficult. Currently the carpet stays oriented with respect to its initial position.

2. Provide some other local surface to navigate -- maybe a maze?

3. Reorient up/down buttons to point up/down

4. Use a picture of a Persian Carpet.
