  • Follow your track along the ground, or in three dimensions (even through the air)
  • Optional periodic snapshots of position, velocity and time

While doing a run to get some screen shots, I discovered a bug in the behaviour of snapshots, which appears to result in zero values for altitude and velocity in all snapshots. Watch for version 1.1 here soon! :)
