For 2.12, ensure all GPS instruments are backwards
compatible, however they were requested. Post release we can create a new instrument name with the compatibility code disabled.
canvas::Window now optionally creates a second canvas for showing
window decoration. After setting its dimensions with the property
"decoration-border" a Nasal based window decorator should add the
required elements to the decoration canvas.
Using the properties "shadow-radius" and "shadow-inset" a drop
shadow can be added to the window.
Nick Vatamaniuc: fix AI aircraft not updating waypoint headings when using custom flightplans.
(Commented out log-line following a non-parenthesised if() test causing problems)
There's a sufficiently large installed base, that simply dropping this
API is not acceptable. A Nasal shim might be possible, but in the
interim, restore the C++ functionality.
Route-manager was explicitly deleting its FP, which was incorrect.
Switch to correct use of SGSharedPtr to refer to flight plans.
Thanks to Roland Haeder for catching this.
Generic transponder can emulate KT-70 props. These emulated props
will likely die in the future, based on feedback from aircraft devs.
See (upcoming) Wiki docs on the transponder for more info.
- Add option 'capture-events' to canvas aircraft and scenery
placements to allow events being forwarded to the respective
canvas.
- Clean up and restructure parts of the mouse event/picking
handling to support forwarding events to canvasses.
All methods exposed to the Nasal props module now accept an
optional first parameter refering to another node by a relative
path.
(Thanks to Philosopher for the initial patch)
Avoid horrible startup times for Windows users. It would be good
if someone with a Windows box, debug environment and some time could
investigate further.
If you want a scenario in a particular session of the sim, ask for
it on the command line / config files, or enable in the GUI.
Note if you had previously 'sticky' scenarios in your autosave.xml, you
will still get them until you clean your autosave, or disable them in
the GUI.
Respect the user's language selection in the system settings, and try those languages in turn. If a language is explicitly specified, try that first regardless.
