parts of the tree left over at the end which the failsafe was catching, but
this could impose a huge framerate hit if the missed portion of the tree
was large enough (and it very often was.)
rabbit lights appear to almost work except the last light or two is never
included in the animation and longer strings of lights are drawn as all
light on ... :-(
a tile boundary. (Potentially imposes a slight performance penalty, but
getting the correct answer needs to be higher priority than getting the
wrong answer really quickly.)
I noticed that textures for scenery static objects are not loaded
anymore for a few weeks. Static objects have absolute path while
random objects and aircraft have relative path but fgLoad3DModel
unconditionally prepend fg_root to the model path. This patch test the
beginning of the model path to choose if fg_root has to be prepended
to the model path.
Ok, I found the problem. You're computing the dynamic pressure in
"psf" and adding it to the static pressure in "inHg" to form the
total pressure. The attached patch is the simple fix to the source.
With that fix, failing the pitot while in cruise at 3k' will cause
the airspeed to indicate beyond redline during climb ... well before 4k'.
Thus, a pitot problem can be detected on any IFR altitude change.
Similarly, failing the static (with working pitot) while cruising 4k'
causes the airspeed to indicate beyond redline during a descent
well before reaching 3k' (during which, of course, the ALT looks fine).
Thus, a static failure can be detected before the aircraft breaks out
of the pilot tolerance range and is blatantly conspicuous soon after.
Now the options can be localized as well. This adds a slight problem for
the --language options, but not that much (worst case, the strings are
loaded twice consuming some more memory). I tried to be as accurate as
posiible when copying the options texts, but there might be some
mostakes left.
This adds supports for a language specific font, defined in locale.xml
I've also moved the fgInitLocale() routine from main.cxx to fg_init.cxx
to prevent an ungly extern definition in options.cxx.
