For your next version (whenever it comes) might there be a chance of including a small tweak to the IronHide armour readout which I currently get to 613 decimal places!
Can you try this tweak for me:
In the "VimanaX_HUD.js" file, on line 3100, can you change it from this:
I've taken on board Redspear's comments about the most important piece of information on the circular gauges, and I'm playing around with this:
So, as you can see, for the energy, and front/aft shields, the gauge display is going the other way, so when it's low, the segments are the larger ones. (I've also applied it to Altitude, and Front/Aft Armour, although those gauges aren't shown).
Nothing is set in stone, and it there's a big pushback I could potentially make it an "opt-in" kind of thing. But I'm interested to hear comments.

Perfectly happy with what is there at the moment, and doubt I'll be upset with your changes either.
Version 1.7 of Vimana-X HUD has been released. I was planning on keeping this on the boil for a bit longer because of the changes to dials, but I found a fairly major issue for users who *aren't* using something like "Here Be Dragons" - in that instance, none of the travel information would display correctly in the travel mod.
Here's the full list of changes.
Fixed issue where route information was not showing in left side panel unless a system map concealment OXP was active and systems had been revealed.
Switched gauges for Alt, Energy, Front/Aft Shield, and Front/Aft Armour to have biggest dial segment for the smallest (and most critical) value.
Fixed issue where Ironhide armour percentage could have excessive decimal points.
Made flashing warning labels stay on screen for longer for better readability.
Fixed issue preventing Shield Cycler icons from appearing.
Removed incompatibility settings with Shield Cycler.
Switched alerting function calculation of altitude to use Combat MFD's calculation, rather than doing it again.
Linked up colour of the Manual Witchspace Alignment jump beacon to match UI colours.
Some code refactoring.
I'd be interested in feedback on the changes to dials. Do they draw more attention to themselves at low (critical) values?
Its incredible, looks so much better than the standard item. Its clear that a huge amount of work has gone into this, and I apprecaite everyone who has had ther input.
I have just started to play around with different HUDs, so I am not entirely sure if what I may percieve as a big is actually one.
The speed dial does not increase when I use injectors. I cannot tell the different in speed between normal max and injected speed. I can see when I press J the speed increases dramatically, so perhaps when on injectors it should read a higher number?
The only other comment I have is that during combat the speed indicator is not very prominent. For me, speed is one of the most important elements of combat and not having it in the upper HUD at all, and only having it in a small dial well away from what I am looking at does causes me a few issues.
Never seen a better HUD, really thankful for all the time everyone has put into this.

Yep, that one is on me! I had an update to the Combat MFD which I hadn't pushed out that should fix that issue. Should be in the expansion list in a few minutes. But if you want to download it before the list is updated, here's the link: CombatMFD-1.17.oxz.
As for the speed in the upper area, I'll see what I can do.

Providing some feedback. Having installed the Vimana-X HUD there seems to be an issue when you encounter a Thargoid Satellite when first entering a system. When you engage a lock the ship response becomes very slow and jumpy. All other encounters are perfectly fine. Selecting any other HUD does not have the same issue.

Welcome!
What is a "Thargoid Satellite"? Something from an oxp such as Thargoid Wars?
And by "engage a lock" do you mean targeting using SniperLock?

Welcome to the friendliest place this side of Riedquat!
That sounds like I’ve got a spelling mistake in one of the target images. If you have a look in your latest.log file it will probably have a bunch of error messages in it. If I can’t track down the issue first, it would be super helpful to get a look at those error messages.
