- move property /sim/auto-coordination to
/controls/flight/auto-coordination
- introduce new property /controls/flight/auto-coordination-factor
with default of 0.5
- auto-coordinate the rudder if auto-coordination is true and the factor
is greater than zero
backward compatibility for the old property is temporary provided by
a temporary Nasal hack in FGDATA/Nasal/aircraft.nas
Replace SG_GENERAL by more specific log classes in many places.
Allow "," to separate logging classes (using "|" is odd on the
command-line).
Also add new option to make logging more useful for developers.
You can use:
--log-level=debug --log-class=environment
to only get environment debug messages, or
--log-level=debug --log-class=sound,ai
to only get debug messages related to the sound or AI subsystem.
Add range checks and provide error messages.
Extend time offset to 64bit - so we're safe for 2038-01-19 (and the next
couple of millions years beyond...).
Support partial date/time strings, such as --start-date-gmt=2011 or
--start-date-gmt=:::12:00:00
This fixes at least the startup process.
If an ambigous fix name was presented with --vor=ID or --ndb=ID
present a list of matching records along with frequency and
position in the console to give the user the chance to pick
the correct one by adding the frequency with --vor-frequency=nnn.nn
It does not yes solve the issue when the user relocates using the
GUI dialog. This requires some GUI and Nasal hacking along with a
new Nasal helper function "navaidinfo".
--ai-scenario=... can only add/enable another scenario.
Introduce --disable-ai-scenarios option to disable all scenarios (can be
used by external launchers, GUIs etc)
Also provide error instead of debug message when a scenario cannot be loaded.
New module contributed: AV400WSim.
Supports communication with external (aka real) Garmin 400/500 WAAS flight
sim units. Includes changes to options.cxx and fg_io.cxx to support
invoking and configuring the new module.
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
- #248: new enable/disable-ai-traffic command-line option
- AI traffic: don't wait for METAR when real-wx-fetch disabled, to
enable AI traffic when running offline
This is the initial commit for a reworked environment controller.
The main intention is to decouple the individual modules like
metar fetch, metar properties, environment interpolation etc.
to make it easier for other weather module developers to modify
environment settings.
As a side effect, the dialogs for weather-scenario, weather-conditions,
clouds and precipitations have been merged into a single dialog
Add helper to look for an aircraft branch path in multiple candidate locations.
Update the main subsystems to use the helper, and hence load from any aircraft dir.
