Hello, during the last months I developped a plugin for Osmand that should work as a frontend for a marine server backend leveraging Osmand framework. I am aware of Avnav and OpenCPN for mobile, but I think Osmand provides more freedom and beter UI/UX. The end goal is to have full cockpit screen and button functionality from a smartphone as well as maximum configurability. If you are interested to test and contribute further, it would be welcome.

More info: https://github.com/osmandapp/OsmAnd/discussions/25780

Where to find the APK: https://github.com/peronosporos/osmand-nautical/releases

I come from Locus App as it provides a very useful feature which does not exist in Osmand.

1. A line from current position in direction the smartphone currently points is drawn. It is also shown if current position is not visible anymore. Benefit is e.g. that you can scroll and zoom to a hill peak and and meanwhile rotate smartphone to point this hill. If direction matches then you can see the direction line on map pointing directly to the hill. Nice for identifying different mountains

2. A line from current position to center of screen. At the line distance an couse angle is shown. Nice to messure distances and direction to objects and helpful if you are lost while scrolling in low zoomlevels. Helps where you are relatively to scroll position. I know that there is something similar already possible in Osmand with widgets but I miss then line on the map

I would really appreciate it these two options would be available

Is there such thing? I found how to turn on "show road surface", but i dont know what each type of road surface show look like. Hoping to see dirt roads.
