When holding the gear key or button down (as a kind of modifier) and after
left-clicking on the terrain, teleport the UFO to the click position.
Keep heading if no model is active, otherise look there. Keep altitude-agl.
(but disabled) by default. You won't notice any difference, unless you
place, let's say, an A-10-model.xml in the scenery. Some of the A-10's "select"
animations unselect the fuselage and other parts, when they thinks the A-10
is in cockpit view, not knowing that it's actually the *ufo*, which is in
cockpit view.
A camera tool for making fgfs videos (heavily used by Michelle) and for
tracking MP and AI aircraft. It's planned to include this into the regular
ufo, but for now it's better to keep them separated. Comes with its own
panel, which (hopefully) is self-explaining.
Shouldn't be announced on the fgfs page as separate aircraft (if that's
possible). Work in progress ...
At the moment only the range can be changed via panel click action
(click on the range numbers). Weather radar can be turned on in
/instrumentation/radar/display-controls/WX. ai/mp display to come.
For those who miss the old 2D panel, just use an aircraft with a decent
panel and add --fdm=ufo for the same effect.
algorithm (needed for the file selector and useful for other purposes, like
assembling lists of livery or screenshot files etc.)
- io.nas: move fixpath to string.nas (it's not only useful for file paths
but can also be used for property paths)
- screen.nas: move trim to string.nas (used by screen.nas and nasal-console.xml)
- gui.nas: add pattern matching to FileSelctor
- ufo.nas: use patterm matching (only *.ac and *.xml files shall be listed)
a cursor, after all, and the term "cursor" is already used for the startup
model. That one should really be called "model", but can't, because this is
already used for the ufo 3D model property ... sigh. :-]
- replace lon/lat adjustment with more predictable nearer/farther/left/right
adjustment (i.e. movements relative to the UFO position)
- add key bindings to move objects
