aar.nas disables $FG_ROOT/Nasal/fuel.nas' main loop, as it should be able
to fully replace it. Ideally, there would be no aar.nas at all, and fuel.nas
would do the job for YASim & JSBSim. Unfortunately, there's a problem with
fuel.nas that's not easy to fix ...
far as this supports air refueling at all)
- make listeners keep variables up-to-date (for better performance)
- remove the ugly initialization stuff in the main loop, but wait in
an extra loop for the FDM to come up
This script works now with the a4f, too. The vulcan2 is *supposed* to
work, but there's apparently a bug in it that prevents it.
/systems/refuel/contact is correcly set, and that should be enough for it.
- if the selected model is the sign placeholder (Aircraft/ufo/Models/sign.ac;
first entry in the m-key dialog), then the export writes an OBJECT_SIGN
entry with the legend as contents (rather than the path).
Note that the input field for legend/comment is invisible if it doesn't
contain any text. You find it if you click right over the status line
entry in the lower left corner. Usability bug by design. :-)
(The dialog can also be dragged to another place.)
load the export file directly into fgfs via --config option:
--config=$HOME/.fgfs/ufo-model-export.xml (An fgfs wrapper could add
this option automatically if the file exists. Mine does. :-)
- import all /models/model[n] objects into the UFO's model manager, so
that they become editable
Both features together allow to save an UFO object session and to continue
it next time.
I missed a few things in the last patch.
1. prop size did not match prop disc size.
2. rescaled yoke to match measured yoke.
3. messed up hot spots for heading indicator knobs when I tweaked the
panel last patch.
The fix that could not wait was #3, so I also re-textured the pilot head
with outdoor face photos. Yep, that's my face. The hair is now
textured also which looks better close up.
1. Added a pilot.
2. Cleaned up the panel, added a working park brake lever, added the
remaining placards, added "materials lighting for the remaining
switches and knobs tied to the nave light switch.
3. Doubled the resolution of the transparent rgb, added propdisc spin,
and realigned all in the ac file so the spin was concentric.
- add status line (green: active model -- clicks will plant it;
orange: selected model -- adjustable/removable)
- make manually selected models active (that is: further clicks will plant
this model type); doesn't apply to automatically selected models (after
removing)
- cleanup
TODO: yet more cleanup, add missing terminal output, etc.
