The documentation compiler will iterate over all Aircraft and generate
LaTeX files for each aircraft. It will then compile them to a pdf. Please
refer to the forum thread for an example of such a pdf file.
It will also generate a separate pdf file just for the checklists.
Currently, the compiler uses the checklist files and additional files in a
Docs/ subdirectory of the aircraft.
To use this script, you need python > 2.7 and a recent version of pdflatex
with hyperref support installed.
Current GUI allows selected mis-matched STAR and approach. Low risk
fix is to detect and deal with this case by just routing direct. Real
fix involves a slicker GUI or inserting a route discontinuity (possible
in FG 3.6 hopefully)
-fix a severe bug which led to unintended hitch releases;
-include the new JSBSim external force location variables;
-improvements for function closeHitch
- Fix: runtime exception in remove_failure_mode()
- Fix: keep failure & trigger status on teleport.
- Fix: allow random failures from the gui to be enabled/disabled multiple times.
- Fix: mcbf/mtbf are set to zero when they fire, so they can be reactivated from the gui.
- Fix: string casts of several trigger types had syntax errors.
- Usability: screen messages related to failures now use positive logic:
"condition 100%" instead of "failure level 0%"
- Performance: Time triggers now use internal timers, instead of requiring being polled.
- Reviewed Trigger interface for more rational usage. reset() is replaced by arm()/disarm()
- Added a subscription interface to listen to FailureMgr events.
- Added an internal log buffer to keep a record of relevant events and present them to gui elements.
- Several usability improvements to the FailureMgr Nasal API.
The reason it didn't work for me is that
/sim/rendering/camera-group/camera/viewport/ does not seem to contain
the actual dimensions of the view window... which is odd. Instead I'll
use /sim/startup/[xy]size (and make it into a method so I don't have to
change 3 lines next time :). Now that it works (again), it looks so much
better. Thanks to Alexis Bory for the original idea.
