ADI: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attitude_indicator ECI/celestial plane, NOT relative to planetary horizon fix indicator so that Rx(pitch)_Ry(yaw)_Rz(roll) is correctly applied

and show heading on "radar" view (with circles to give 3d effect for easy reading?)

SCALE INDICATIONS: show triangulation from origin of reference frame (toggleable) for easy scale indications. switch between celestial plane and plane of ship position.

OFFSCREEN: should be different shape from onscreen to avoid confusion
