David Culp: Here's a new batch of AI code which includes a working radar instrument. I put the radar calculations into the existing AIAircraft class. It was easier that way, and it can always be migrated out later if we have to. Every tenth sim cycle the AIManager makes a copy of the current user state information. When the AIAircraft updates it uses this information to calculate the radar numbers. It calculates: 1) bearing from user to target 2) range to target in nautical miles 3) "horizontal offset" to target. This is the angle from the nose to the target, in degrees, from -180 to 180. This will be useful later for a HUD. 4) elevation, in degrees (vertical angle from user's position to target position) 5) vertical offset, in degrees (this is elevation corrected for user's pitch) 6) rdot (range rate in knots, note: not working yet, so I commented it out) and three items used by the radar instrument to place the "blip" 7) y_shift, in nautical miles 8) x_shift, in nautical miles 9) rotation, in degrees The radar instrument uses the above three items, and applies a scale factor to the x-shift and y-shift in order to match the instrument's scale. Changing the display scale can be done entirely in the XML code for the instrument. Right now it's set up only to display a 40 mile scale. The radar is an AWACS view, which is not very realistic, but it is useful and demonstrates the technology. With just a little more work I can get a HUD marker. All I need to do there is make a bank angle adjustment to the current values.
