Dear community,
I am happy to announce Sky Dolly v0.13 ("Dapper Daher") which introduces location import & export. This makes it not only possible to exchange user points with Little Navmap, but also allows to literally import all POIs, photogrammetric cities, airports and more from free POI databases such as Little Navmap - MSFS POI Database (hosted on flightsim.to).
The engine state (start, shutdown, keep) can now also be stored together with locations, making it effectively possible to define your own custom starting points, for instance your own helipads.
Locations can now also be conveniently filtered by keyword search, type (system, user, imported), category and country.
In addtion Sky Dolly ships with 100 system locations, fine-tuned and validated GPS coordinates, most of which now come from https://flightspots.co/ (unfortunately this website notifies visitors that it will "terminate its radar services"). It has never been easier to reach or take-off from beautiful spots such as this one:
Further improvements
Reduction of exported Sky Dolly CSV file sizes (by rounding to two decimal digits - GPS coordinates are rounded to 6 decimal digits)
The [Sky Dolly installation directory]/Resources/migr/Locations.csv file is now optional and can be deleted (it is used to migrate the system locations into newly generated logbooks)
All aircraft types from the 40th anniversary update have been added to the aircraft selector combo box (when importing a flight); third-party aircraft are automatically added as they are recorded
The Flight Recorder CSV importer now also imports the propeller lever position
Keyword search text fields now have a clear button
Performance improvements and bug fixes
