Thought of a neat idea.

Blocks that are invisible, but only in cockpit view.
That way, we could build fancy exteriors without obstructing the interior view.

    @CleverchesyTM How do I do that (In response to the I think you can xml transparent blocks)

    @AstleyIndustries that only works if you use a single fuselage block. If you use multiple you will just be looking at the next one in front

    You can do this by hacking / nudging cockpits inside fuselage blocks but only that fuselage is invisible in cockpit view. I have used it before.

    And this is an awesome idea!

    And would this also work with the cameras?

    @FrankieB @Feanor @Sunnyskies All that does is invert the block surface, which for some reason, people think is transparency.. Sunny is after a block that is shown fully in exterior view, and is not rendered at all in interior view. This would be quite nice. It would let you make canopies out of more than just one large fuselage cone, while still being usable as an interior

    @Sunnyskies just put a negative sign in front of the values

    Just stick a - in front of what you want to be invisible. Like frontScale="-20,-20" fromfrontScale="20,20" @Sunnyskies

    @CleverchesyTM Really? What attribute do you modify to obtain transparency?

    Hmm, that's interesting. It would also mean glass cockpits (negative length fuselage blocks) would also support a cockpit view
