This patch introduces the optional elements
<config>
<spin-thresh>0.8</spin-thresh>
<max-roll-error-deg>40</max-roll-error-deg>
<max-pitch-error-deg>12</max-pitch-error-deg>
</config>
under the corresponding /instrumentation/attitude-indicator element.
The values are initialized to the shown default values if omitted.
These are the values of the former hardcoded constants.
SimGear change. It changes all the SG_xxxx to be the 'real' includes, and gets
rid of many #ifdef SG_HAVE_STD_INCLUDES. As an added bonus, rather than
replacing 'SG_USING_NAMESPACE(std)' with 'using namespace std', I just fixed
the small number of places to use std:: explicitly. So we're no longer polluting
the global namespace with the entire contents of std, in many cases.
There is one more 'mechanical' change to come - getting rid of SG_USING_STD(X),
but I want to keep that separate from everything else. (There's another
mechnical change, replacing <math.h> with <cmath> and so on *everywhere*, but
one step at a time)
directory and over to the Instrumentation directory and make them modular
in the sense of being able to pick and choose what you include with any
particular aircraft.
We have decided that hardcoded initialization of instruments and systems is
bad. So we remove them.
Hardcoded initialization is bad because it can't be overridden from config
files or from the command line. We prefer to do it through config files that
should be, eventually, aircraft specific (*-set.xml), not global
(preferences.xml).
I've added two new debug log types for the instrumentation and systems. They
used to use the autopilot debug log, because I couldn't figure out how to
make new log types. Well, now I have figured it out. ;-)
Instrumentation and systems are now configureable from xml files. The two
generic configurations generic-systems.xml and generic-instrumentation.xml
configures the systems and instrumentation as it was hardcoded. You can
override the generic configurations in a similar way as you override the
autopilot configuration.
appears still to be indicating.
Added a 'caged' property to the AI, for aerobatic work.
Temporarily disabled tumbling due to pitch, until I can learn more
about it.
Publish the current amount of tumble (-1.0:1.0) under
/instrumentation/attitude-indicator/tumble-norm.
a spinning gyro.
Changed FGInstrumentMgr to inherit from FGSubsystemGroup, greatly
simplifying the (already simple) class. I should probably rename this
to FGInstrumentGroup or something similar, but not today.
Added the gyroscopic turn indicator (part of the TC).
