Motivation for removal: The current implementation is problematic due to hardcoded elevations, and shows some problems when the code is disabled. Additionally, the preferred sequence for committing material to ${FG_ROOT}/data/Models is to commit them to the scenemodels database, from where they are synced with fgdata/GIT.
When user switched to a different view mode (e.g. chase/helicopter/tower
view) before or during a tutorial, everything went wrong...
Need to control (save/restore/switch) the view number (view mode) during
tutorials. Also adds an option to explicitly change view mode during
a tutorial, i.e. tutorials can switch to tower view, chase view, ... now.
Make tutorial dialog a proper window, clean-up menu.
Show welcome message to new user when tutorial available.
Repeat current tutorial message, when no user progress.
Add a listener to /environment/weather-scenario to allow setting
the scenario at runtime. Need some cleanup of the global weather
dialog to remove duplicate code.
It's annoying when balloons appear exactly at the current a/c position
on sim reset, since the a/c gets knocked over etc.
(Balloon scenario still won't work properly after a sim-reset, so another
fix is required...).
make options
--wind=nnn@mm
--visibility
--visibility-miles
--ceiling
--turbulence
work again. These options now write properties in the
/environment/config/presets
branch. The values will be applied in the property-rules
in FGDATA/Environment/interpolator.xml
Corresponds to commit e86cecf4704a4bdcf43114245d8ac94adb1f1eef
in fg/next
aircraft system, rather than "core" data.
Fix a long standing annoyance (for me anyway) when the fly-by-view is first
instantiated, it never put a point forward very far so the first transtion
came very quickly and abruptly. Improve the forward prediction based on
ground speed and time when the view is reset (or switched to.) I like this
a lot better personally.
- handle /environment/weather-scenario property on startup
- try to detect predefined scenario on startup of global
weather dialog box and select the corresponding entry in
the scenario combo box.
Use new "model-installed" property instead of searching directories
directly - which didn't work with new "--fg-aircraft" dirs.
Also, pilot list now keeps its position. Avoid jumping to top-right
corner when updating.
