What does the letter d mean in the new interface of SAM

I think it means Delta. Probably angle. Maybe angle from where you are aiming, or maybe angle of their travel vertically? Something like that, but pretty sure it would stand for Delta something.

EDIT:

but they can put delta symbols

I just went into test drive, MAYBE it’s showing how fast they are close towards you (LESS than 1.0) or going away (MORE than 1.0) still not sure, but it seems to change based on if they are coming closer/going further away, based on speed. Def not distance, as there is a column for that specifically.

HRMMMM maybe I have it backwards with over/under 1.0 … but kinda looks like the speed towards/away from you might be it.

I was testing with the US CLOVER fwiw. HRRRRRMMMMMM, and of note when you click on the “d” column, it shows “d+” or “d-” huh, interesting.

OH and the little line showing their direction of travel (seems to be) correlated to higher or lower “d” values. Kinda…lol hrmmmmmm I am very curious now too.

this looks like bug but idk, bcs u see like on su27 on my screen .3.smth

Ok if it is showing NOT changing, that might be a bug, because in my test drive the “d” is updating almost nonstop.

yeah its upd all time

Huh, on the official post the “d” column is not shown in the video:

I made a reply on that official thread asking if anyone else knows.

I saw! HAHA, I downloaded it, and uploaded it directly instead 🤣

To be fair, just because I’ve not noticed it doesn’t mean it doesn’t change.

I’m… not very observant which is reflected in my stats
