    I found the stream that contains the vehicle z position, and modified the Digital Air-speedometer app accordingly. But it still shows the airspeed rather than the z position! Here's my code:
    Code:
    angular.module('beamng.apps')
    .directive('simpleDigAltimeter', ['$log', 'StreamsManager', 'UiUnits', function ($log, StreamsManager, UiUnits) {
      return {
        template:
          '<div style="width:100%; height:100%;" class="bngApp" layout="column">' +
            '<div style="display:flex; justify-content: center; align-items: baseline;">' +
            //this ^ has to be display flex instead of the layout attribute from angular since the latter has no baseline option
              '<span style="font-size:1.3em; font-weight:bold;">' +
                '<span style="color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8)"> {{leadingZeros}}</span>' +
                '<span>{{position.z.val}}</span>' +
              '</span>' +
              '<span style="font-size:0.9em; font-weight:bold; margin-left:2px">{{position.z.unit}}</span>' +
            '</div>' +
            '<small style="text-align:center; color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8); font-size: 0.75em">Altitude</small>' +
          '</div>',
        replace: true,
        restrict: 'EA',
        link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
          'use strict';
          StreamsManager.add(['sensors']);
    
          scope.$on('$destroy', function () {
            $log.debug('<simple-altimeter> destroyed');
            StreamsManager.remove(['sensors']);
          });
    
          scope.position.z = {
            val: 0,
            unit: ''
          };
    
          scope.$on('streamsUpdate', function (event, streams) {  
            scope.$evalAsync(function () {
              var speedMs = streams.sensors.position.z;
    
              // logger.App.log('speed', speedMs);
             
              }
            });
          });
        }
      };
    }]);
    
    Thanks to anyone who can help me. :)

    Hey,
    the "simple digital air speedometer" you referred to uses the "electrics"-stream rather than the "sensors"-stream. You may want to use "streams.electrics.altitude", then it may work. By the way here is a list of all available streams: Click
    Hope it helped you at least a little bit;)

    Well I figured out already that you had to change the streams, and I did, from electrics to sensors.position.z. I will try the stream you mentioned. Thanks!

    Ugh, now it just disappears after I place it on the screen and close the menu. Here's my current code

    Code:
    angular.module('beamng.apps')
    .directive('simpleDigAltimeter', ['$log', 'StreamsManager', 'UiUnits', function ($log, StreamsManager, UiUnits) {
      return {
        template:
          '<div style="width:100%; height:100%;" class="bngApp" layout="column">' +
            '<div style="display:flex; justify-content: center; align-items: baseline;">' +
            //this ^ has to be display flex instead of the layout attribute from angular since the latter has no baseline option
              '<span style="font-size:1.3em; font-weight:bold;">' +
                '<span style="color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8)"> {{leadingZeros}}</span>' +
                '<span>{{altitude.val}}</span>' +
              '</span>' +
              '<span style="font-size:0.9em; font-weight:bold; margin-left:2px">{{altitude.unit}}</span>' +
            '</div>' +
            '<small style="text-align:center; color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8); font-size: 0.75em">Altitude</small>' +
          '</div>',
        replace: true,
        restrict: 'EA',
        link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
          'use strict';
          StreamsManager.add(['electrics']);
    
          scope.$on('$destroy', function () {
            $log.debug('<simple-altimeter> destroyed');
            StreamsManager.remove(['electrics']);
          });
    
          scope.altitude = {
            val: 0,
            unit: ''
          };
    
          scope.$on('streamsUpdate', function (event, streams) {  
            scope.$evalAsync(function () {
              var altitudeMs = streams.electrics.altitude;
    
              // logger.App.log('speed', speedMs);
             
              }
            });
          });
        }
      };
    }]);

    I loaded you code in my Test-App and found one error:
    Line 38: there is a unnecccessary bracket ("}")

    You also want to assign your altitude variable to the value of the electric stream ;)
    so i changed line 34 to "scope.altitude.val = Math.round(streams.electrics.altitude*100)/100;"
    I also rounded the result up for better readings

    That´s the code that worked for me:
    Notice: I changed the name for the directive to "coolApp"
    Code:
    angular.module('beamng.apps')
    .directive('coolApp', ['$log', 'StreamsManager', 'UiUnits', function ($log, StreamsManager, UiUnits) {
      return {
        template:
          '<div style="width:100%; height:100%;" class="bngApp" layout="column">' +
            '<div style="display:flex; justify-content: center; align-items: baseline;">' +
            //this ^ has to be display flex instead of the layout attribute from angular since the latter has no baseline option
              '<span style="font-size:1.3em; font-weight:bold;">' +
                '<span style="color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8)"> {{leadingZeros}}</span>' +
                '<span>{{altitude.val}}</span>' +
              '</span>' +
              '<span style="font-size:0.9em; font-weight:bold; margin-left:2px">{{altitude.unit}}</span>' +
            '</div>' +
            '<small style="text-align:center; color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8); font-size: 0.75em">Altitude</small>' +
          '</div>',
        replace: true,
        restrict: 'EA',
        link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
          'use strict';
          StreamsManager.add(['electrics']);
    
          scope.$on('$destroy', function () {
            $log.debug('<simple-altimeter> destroyed');
            StreamsManager.remove(['electrics']);
          });
    
          scope.altitude = {
            val: 0,
            unit: ''
          };
    
          scope.$on('streamsUpdate', function (event, streams) {
            scope.$evalAsync(function () {
                scope.altitude.val = Math.round(streams.electrics.altitude*100)/100;
             
              // logger.App.log('speed', speedMs);
           
    
            });
          });
        }
      };
    }]);
