Unfortunately, this is quite jittery on some aircraft, so it uses a slower
lowpass filter. I'd like to fix that, but don't even know what causes it.
Considering /sim/time/delta-realtime-sec didn't help. :-/
entry "View->Toggle Dynamic Cockpit View" entry; state saved to autosave.xml;
there are no configuration parameters yet, but the default values work for
most aircraft; exceptions: ground steering effect of jsbsim aircraft is
jittery; yawing effect on big aircraft is too abrupt. This needs to be
configurable.
Suggestions for improvements are welcome if they are bundled with a
working diff that actually proves the claimed advantages. :-)
<close> block, remove autopilot helper file autopilot.nas and (re)implement
its functionality in autopilot.xml
- make AP dialog "bidirectional" and "live": all input fields are <live>
(i.e. they are updated as the autopilot settings are changed, for example
by panel actions or property browser changes)
- dialog input is only forwarded to the AP; no direct checkbox/radiobutton
handling through widget operation, instead:
- changes to the AP properties operate checkboxes/radiobuttons
This makes the AP dialog always reflect the AP state. If the AP refuses
one setting and sets it back to something else, then the dialog will
immediately react and show the actual setting.
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)
- always disable tutorial-stop; enable tutorial-start if tutorial available
- don't call the tutorial selector "Wizard 1/2". There is only one tutorial
selector, the next dialog is already part of the tutorial. Also, the dialogs
don't guide you through multi-dialog setup, which is what "wizards" normally
stand for.
- use tutorial name as dialog title
- set button shortcuts (default == return, esc)
- make esc go back to select dialog
- beautify sliders & some other tweaks
