Hi, I've noticed that "Mission Planner" and your "MissionPlanner-to-Litchi" converter doesn't include the actions for the drone to take photos in pre-determined spots. How this "auto-photo" mode you mentioned in the README works? How do Litchi knows the correct place to take the photos? I've set the path to Straight Lines.

Also the "Above Ground" fields should be checked by default in the CSV creation (conversion) process so Litchi can calculate the correct height for each location when importing the mission.

Only waypoints commands and photo commands are translated because this script is meant to be used with the Survey Grid tool in mission planner as the tutorial in Readme.md shows.

I might add more commands to it, if you're interested. Let me know :)

Take a close look at the waypoints in Litchi. There you will find intervals in which the images are captured. These come from the Mission Planner survey tool.

Add explanation how it works to documentation.
