many as you like, but not at runtime. Some aircraft may especially want to
change the first ("day") color, as the predefined green is IMHO a bit dark
and should possibly be more white-ish.
correctly to an existing Boeing 737 (the new 737-300). Also updated
the aircraft_demo.xml to reflect this change. Added an initial version of
a logical ground network file for KSFO airport.
aircraft *-set.xml files. Otherwise someone could offer an aircraft
for download that sets the host to one of their machines and lets a
nasal script write arbitrary information there. (Not that we had a lot
of sensible information. Yet.)
switch-position=1, so let's set it here for all others. This shouldn't be
done in aircraft *-set.xml files (unless there's a *very* good reason),
because this overwrites the settings that were made by the --dme option,
and thus breaks it.
mf:
- some minor modifications to Stuart's version :-)
- select all engines per default. This may seem less realistic (who starts
all engines on the b29 at once?), but it'll prevent oodles of bug reports.
And those who want it realistic shouldn't rely on engine 1 being selected
by default, anyway, but rather actively select every single engine.
Also: this new behavior is in line with the original intentions (see cvs
log to preferences.xml -r1.51)
Limit the maximum time we spent in the simulation loops.
That means, if the /sim/max-simtime-per-frame value is strictly positive
you can limit the maximum amount of time you will do simulations for
one frame to display. The cpu time spent in simulations code is roughtly
at least O(real_delta_time_sec). If this is (due to running debug
builds or valgrind or something different blowing up execution times)
larger than the real time you will no more get any response
from flightgear. This limits that effect. Just set to property from
your .fgfsrc or commandline ...
local changes. People are used to modifying this file, and seem helpless
without it. Further explanations will be added to README.Joystick.html.
The dummy entry is necessary because EasyXML aborts without at least one
entry, and segfaults without <PropertyList> entry.
This adds a TACAN instrument to the inventory. Range and bearing are calculated
to the TACAN or VORTAC beacon selected by means of the Channel Selector in the E
quipment/Radio pull-down menu.
A TACAN beacon has also been added to the aircraft carrier Nimitz (channel #029Y
).
Changes
=======
- shadowvolume.cxx, renderer.cxx :
- reduced the polygon offset a bit to eliminate some artifact ;
- changed again the cleanup code for objects inside a tile because it could crash on rare occasion ;
- the culling of shadow casters has been rewritten to traverse the scene graph, it should be
a bit faster when there is a lot of objects ;
- the range selector was not correctly handled, sometimes the wrong LOD was casting shadows.
- added the option to display aircraft's transparent objects after the shadows, this will
reduce the problem of shadows being hidden by the transparent object (propeller disk,
rotor, etc). A side effect is that aircraft's transparent objects won't receive shadows
anymore. This is usually a good thing except when the aircraft use a 'transparent'
texture where it should not. A transparent texture in the plib context is a texture
with an alpha channel or a material with alpha <= 0.99.
- model.cxx, animation.cxx, shadowvolume.cxx :
- added an optional <condition> under the <noshadow> animation
- tower.cxx
- correct a rare bug where all occurences of the aircraft are not deleted from the
departure list causing a crash in FGTower::CheckDepartureList function.
