If a <view> contains a <limits> block, then a view handler gets attached to
it, which limits head turns to a given range, whereby headings beyond a given
threshold cause an additional sideways movement. This is turned off by default
for now.
These are then skipped with view.stepView(n), unless the second, optional
argument is set to 1: view.stepView(n, 1);
Whether a view is enabled or not, is saved in $FG_ROOT/.fgfs/autosave.xml
(system views) or $FG_ROOT/.fgfs/aircraft-data/<aircraft>.xml
I tried it the nice way, but it didn't work. Why is it important to
reserve indices for fgfs? Because someone has otherwise to go through
all aircraft in CVS and move aircraft specific views out of the way,
every time a system view gets added. Been there, done that.
a regular function argument for that. Note the "n" in this example:
setlistener("/sim/current-view/view-number", func(n) {
setprop("/sim/hud/visibility", !n.getValue());
}, 1);
- add put_model() function to place models at given lon/lat. If
elevation is nil, then it will be put on the surface. The path is
relative to $FG_ROOT.
- let geo.click_position() and geo.aircraft_position() return copies
of the Coord class, not just a reference
view.nas: adaptation for geo.nas change; minor changes
- add view manager for saving/restoring and moving/interpolating view
axes & fov to absolute values. This is used for cockpit tutorials in
$FG_ROOT/Nasal/tutorial.nas
Move the "tip popup" code from view.nas to a new gui.nas module, and
make it generically useful.
Wire up flap steppings for the 747 as an example of per-aircraft
flaps.
Realtime-based property slewing, to eliminate dependence of trim and
view direction rates on frame rate.
New Node.setValues() method which sets whole property trees from Nasal
data.
A view.nas module, which takes over handling of the X/x zoom keys. It
clamps the FOV to a dynamically calculated maximum corresponding to
typical human visual accuity, and pops up a pretty dialog informing
you of the new FOV.
