interface instead of string. This will result in a lot more
efficiency later, once I add in a simple hash table for caching
lookups, since it will avoid creating a lot of temporary string
objects. The major considerations for users will be that they cannot
use
node->getName() == "foo";
any more, and will have to use c_str() when setting a string value
from a C++ string.
* Add new trigger types: raise, fall
* Add new trigger offset parameter
* Add new volume/pitch types: inv, abs, sqrt
* Add initial support for multiple events to intervere in a single sound
(by using the same name, see the crank section of 172-sound.xml)
* Cached the volume/pitch type fucntions
(No more if's inside the loops in update())
difference between the two is this: A sample is file related and sound
is a authonomus entity. This means you can have several sounds pointing
to a single sample. In that case, just one sample is loaded into memory.
The advantage is you can play the same sample with different pitch or
volume, but with just one sample loaded into memory.
To fully support this there is a new fucntion call:
FGSimpleSound *sample = new FGSimpleSound("filename");
mgr->add(sample, "name");
should be replaced by:
FGSimpleSound *sample = mgr->add("name", "filename");
But the old behaviour is still supported with one minor change, sounds
with the same name aren't supported anymore.

individual aircraft to have different sounds (and cleaning up my code
a fair bit). The most important user-visible change is the renaming
of the /sim/sound property to /sim/sound/audible.

2. Warnings from auto-configure tools. (src/Time/Makefile.am)
3. Typo: "the it's" -> "its". (docs-mini/README.Joystick)
4. Remove definition of FGViewer::update() that now is (or can be) pure

5. Preferred form of function name according to comments in plib:
"not_working"\
-> "notWorking". (src/Sound/soundmgr.hxx)
FDM people. FlightGear now supports an unlimited number of fuel
tanks. Also added correct fuel-flow reporting for piston engines, and
tracked new features in SimGear property support.
- automake-1.4 sets default values for INCLUDES which we can't
overwrite.
- automake-1.5 renames this to DEFAULT_INCLUDES and leaves INCLUDES
open for the developer to use.
Thus for automake-1.4 we are forced to 'append' to INCLUDES and in
automake-1.5 we can just set the value to whatever we like.
Unfortunately, the behaviors of the two versions are mutually
incompatible.
The solution I am committing now works for both versions but
automake-1.5 generates a lot of spurious warning messages that are
annoying, but not fatal.
(i.e. multiloop). Most subsystems currently ignore the parameter, but
eventually, it will allow all subsystems to update by time rather than
by framerate.
has absolutely no bearing on actual wheel performance and has nothing to do
with the fdm. It is just a simplistic wheel spin velocity model used to
avoid subsequent squealing when a tire is bouncing, or touches down right after lifting off. If at some point tire spin is modeled by an FDM we could
transition to using real data.
Here's an unusual patch for FlightGear -- I've created .cvsignore
files for every source directory, to make CVS output more informative.
This is especially nice when using cvs-examine from (X)Emacs to look
for changes.
- changed all sound file properties to end in /path for pathname, and
added /sound and /pitch (with current values as defaults)
- don't activate the stall horn if CAS is less than 30kt (this needs
to be refined somehow)
- declarations to support changes to cxx file
- delete table in destructor
** src/FDM/flight.cxx
- bind engine properties in FGInterface::bind, and publish properties
for all engines rather than just engine 0
** src/Main/fg_props.cxx
- removed all engine properties; now bound in FGInterface::bind
** src/Sounds/fg_fx.cxx
- support multiple engine and cranking sounds
** src/Sounds/fg_fx.hxx
- support multiple engine and cranking sounds
What was happening was that we screwed up and scheduled tiles for
(lon,lon) rather than (lon,lat) ... note the typo. This generated
bogus tile id's which the system happily accepted, put into the tile
cache system, and attempted to load. The problem was that these bogus
tile id's were negative where as all valid tile id's should be >= 0.
These negative tile id's up the logic used to remove tiles from the
cache. When identifying tiles for removal, we look for the furthest
tile away from us by starting out the furthest id at -1 and if we find
something further, we update the furthest tile id. Then at the end we
check if the furthest tile id >= 0 to see if we found anything we
could remove. However, the furthest tile id was these bogus tiles
with negative tile id's so the system always assumed there was nothing
appropriate for removal. This made it impossible to ever remove a
tile from the cache meaning it quickly filled up and no more tiles
could be loaded.
I fixed the one instance of scheduling tiles for a bogus location, and
added a sanity check so if it ever happens again we'll bomb with an
appropriate error message.
When you tune into a station start at a "random" point in the sequence.
Sped up the words per minute to 13 to which means one sequence per about 4 secs.
This means we get through the whole sequence in about 20 seconds leaving 10
seconds of silence.
