and the pushback code:
- Traffic manager starts modelload requests immediately upon program
loading
- Only create legs 1 (push back) or five (cruise) of AI traffic.
- AIAircraft's rather obsessive behavior to circle around a waypoint is
largely resolved
- More realistic ground steering for AI aircraft.
a running copy of FlightGear (no need to have FlightGear running on weaker
powered groundstations.)
- Add a test for "valid" gps data.
- Pretty print gps coordinates in debug output.
Thanks to Vivian Meazza for debugging this. The output deque for
FGDigitalFilter was not being kept long enough for the
doubleExponential filter. Reads from output[1] could cause a crash.
From Till:
i started the project at the end of february with a simple idea: move all
3d-model loading to the DatabasePager-thread. my first attempts looked
promising, though they were a little too optimistic (or naive?). the patch
has evolved a lot since.
currently it does the following things:
1. revive SGModelLib, move functions for xml-model-loading there
2. replace all calls to sgLoad3dModel with calls to either
SGModelLib::loadModel() or SGModelLib::loadPagedModel()
almost all models will be loaded by the DatabasePager. the few exceptions are:
your own plane, shared models in scenery, random objects, AIBallistic models.
3. simplify mode-loading functions (avoid passing around fg_root)
4. avoid supurious MatrixTransform nodes in loaded models
5. fix some memory leaks
Introduce a convenience member function in wxRadarBg for creating an
SGPropertyNode and initializing it in one step. Use this in
agRadar. This eliminates buggy behavior when the necessary radar
properties aren't defined.
$ fgfs --version
2.0pre-20080314
FG_ROOT=/usr/local/share/FlightGear
FG_HOME=/home/foo/.fgfs
... assuming that VERSION in config.h is "2.0pre-20080314". Which it isn't.
Instead it's "1.0.0" since yesterday, and was "0.9.10" before that. This
has yet to be discussed, and I'll add the option to options.xml later.
Reindent to Stroustrup style.
Make FGPrecipitationMgr an SGSubsystem and remove all references to it
in main.cxx and renderer.cxx.
Use SGGeod::makeZUpFrame instead of a private function in
tileentry.cxx. Rewrite that function, WorldCoordinate, to use
makeZUpFrame too.
Makes it possible to start at a parking location defined in the AI/Airports/*/parking.xml files, using the parkpos command line option.
Note that the name to pass is the concatenation of the "name" and "number" fields in the xml.
This allows Nasal managed views thanks to the proximity of the
event manager (which executes Nasal loops). The io manager must
come after the view manager to avoid jitter in network replay.
As discussed with Tim on irc: Here is a quick fix for the memory-hungry tile
manager. Due to bugs in FGNewCache, old tiles were never deleted.
I left the timestamp-updates in the cull-traversal. but imho things work
just as well when timestamps are updated in FGNewCache::insert_tile() and
FGNewCache::get_tile()
