There are a lot of towers that are at the same altitude as the airport; this is clearly a lack of data. Also there are some towers that are ludicrously high (e.g. KLSV). This commit defines a reasonable minimum and maximum values for tower altitude; together with a default altitude which will be added to the airport elevation when the tower altitude is outside of these ranges (above airpot altitude).
/sim/time/frame-time-offset-ms
and set it to non archivable.
this prop is used to delay the time we start a fg loop if we are using the throttle frame rate,
this allow a better master-slave relation as the slave can be run a little after the master.
linked to a28bf28ee089e53a1790d222c02dd2963a76dd85 and 7dfbcf091880ab9d9ed24917f50e1b1920c6a811 in flightgear.
- All non-ALS Effects have been removed (except generic ones from model-default and terrain-default).
- The rendering dialog has been reworked to accomodate the changes.
- All necessary properties have been added to graphics-properties.xml
- Five graphics presets have been added: Minimal, Low, Medium, High and Ultra.
- Some unused properties have been removed from defaults.xml
A forum user suggested making these auto-saved, also relocated them
under /sim/gui which probably makes more sense since no other gui
properties live at the root.
E.g. for recording a group flight, significantly reduces recording size because
user aircraft signals info is very detailed compared to multiplayer packets.
This view is like Helicopter View except that it does not change the view
heading to match the aircraft, which makes it work much better for vertical
flight, e.g. with the shuttle.
The new view is disabled by default.
Nasal/view.nas
contains the new view config.
defaults.xml:
Added view 8 to list of views for which we default to Helicopter view's
target offsets (so that they look at the centre of the aircraft).
Configure the VPB elevation mesh via properties:
/scenery/elevation-mesh/sample-ratio controls the elevation
mesh sampling, allowing reduction in mesh size
/scenery/elevation-mesh/vertical-scale is just for fun and
scales the mesh vertically making mountains taller.
/scenery/elevation-mesh/constraint-gap-m controls how much below
airports etc. elevation vertices are forced to be.
Avoids loss of control caused by movement of mouse while paused, if in
flight-control mode.
The new behaviour is enabled by default.
It can be disabled by manually setting
/sim/freeze-mouse-flight-controls-on-pause=false. But note that this property
is deliberately not archived so this needs to be done each time Flightgear is
run.
This property is set to false by ATC-ML, which then breaks tower view in
subsequent fligtgear runs for all aircraft It's tricky to figure out what has
happened, so best to not archive the setting in the first place.
gui/dialogs/multiplayer.xml: added checkbox.
defaults.xml: default /sim/mp-carriers/auto-attach to false with
userarchive="y".
Multiplayer carrier auto-attach is implemented in
fgaddon/MPCarrier/Systems/MPCarriers.nas.
defaults.xml
Set new property /sim/mouse/mouse-rudder-elevator to false, but with
userarchive="y".
gui/dialogs/input-config.xml
Added checkbox to control /sim/mouse/mouse-rudder-elevator.
mice.xml:
Allow mouse control of elevator with button 0 down if
/sim/mouse/mouse-rudder-elevator is true.
- Remove all Compositor Effects and Shaders.
- Unify the low-spec and ALS pipelines in a single pipeline called 'Classic'.
- Readd shadow mapping.
- Move the WS30 Effect and fragment shader out of the Compositor-specific directories.
