I understand simulation mode being asked and discussed.... OK.
But What would really be a plus would be an "Off-line" mode allowing a couple of functionality for preparing your night captures.
I mostly think of Autorun and Catalogues.
It would be about perfect if you could work on your autorun sequence off-line during the day, so when at night, connecting your ASIAir, you just hit a "Upload" button and your sequence is loaded.
This would be even more important with the multitarget "mosaic" capabilities expected with V1.6.
Even Cherry on the cake would be if SkySafari catalogue and scope function could work with this "off-line" mode, so you can visualise and fine tune your framing/mosaic.
