TWEAK-1: RANGE CIRCLES
(1) INCREASING NUMBER OF RANGE CIRCLES
By default, there are 3 circles at 100, 150 & 200 nm.
If you want to add more circles, go to following line in “config.js” and add numbers as shown in red.
sudo nano /usr/share/dump1090-mutability/html/config.js
Press Ctrl+w and type SiteCircleDistances and press Enter key.
The cursor will jump to line below. Add additional circles as shown ib red
SiteCirclesDistances = new Array(50,100,150,200,250,300);
NOTE:
If you have installed dump1090-mutability using JProchazka’s Script, the Cicle diameter will be in km instead of nm due to a bug.
Remove this bug as follows:
sudo nano /usr/share/dump1090-mutability/html/config.js
In file config.js, scroll down till you find a line
Metric=“false;”
Remove quotes " " (but don’t remove the ; semi colon), so the line becomes
Metric=false;
Save the file config.js, and restart dump1090-mutability
sudo systemctl restart dump1090-mutability
Now clear cache of your browser, and reload/refresh the map in your browser, and you will see the range rings in nautical miles.
