FGFlightRecorder::replay():
Fixed behaviour when going back in time while replaying - we were not
replaying initial property changes correctly because we deliberately
don't load signals data for some frames when we are only interested in
multiplayer or extra properties.
Removed incorrect code that tried to avoid replaying the same frame twice
in succession.
FGReplay::update(double dt):
Improved how we figure out which frames we need to replay just for multiplayer
or extra property changes.
FGReplay::makeTapePath():
New fn containing the code for converting tape name into path by prepending
tape dir and appending .fgtape as necessary. Called when loading tape at
startup or at runtime.
Cached some more property nodes in SGPropertyNode_ptr's.
Don't recordCHAT_MSG_ID messages; unfortunately it looks like most (all?)
chat message text is received as part of POS_DATA_ID messages tied to
sim/multiplay/chat, so this doesn't actually avoid recording chat messages.
We used to modify the --aircraft and --airport options when handling
--load-tape, which invalidated iterators and for example could cause later
options to be ignored.
The solution here is rather crude - we store the new options in globals to
ensure that they are used in preference later on.
We now put local file inside directory specified in /sim/replay/tape-directory,
and also use 'url-' prefix on leafname.
E.g. with
--prop:/sim/replay/tape-directory=.../fgtapes and
--load-tape=http://foo.com/harrier-gr3-continuous.fgtape
- the local file is:
.../fgtapes/url_foo.com_harrier-gr3-continuous.fgtape
Need to use simgear::HTTP::FileRequestRef shared pointer, otherwise
HTTPFileRequest will delete it after the transfer.
Also changed callback to a lambda to match reinstated simgear API.
E.g. for --load-tape=http[s]://foo.com/foo/bar/wibble.fgtape, we download in
the background to a file called foo.com_[MD5]_wibble.fgtape, where [MD5] is an
8-character hash of /foo/bar.
We assume any existing file contains valid data and only download any remaining
data (by specifying an http Range header).
Also, when loading/downloading and replaying continuous recordings at startup,
we set the aircraft and airport from the recording.
src/Aircraft/replay.cxx
src/Aircraft/replay.hxx
FGReplay::loadContinuousHeader()
Loads properties from Continuous recording's header, distinguishing
between failure due to incorrect header, or due to a truncated file.
FGReplay::indexContinuousRecording()
Contains Continuous recording indexing code, in a form that can be used
in background while we are downloading.
Added a mutex to protect m_continuous_in_time_to_frameinfo, which can now
be modified in background as Continuous recording is downloaded.
src/Main/fg_init.cxx
src/Main/options.cxx
fgOptLoadTape():
Modified to handle --load-tape=<url>. We start download, and read
the header before returning, so that we can force the FDM to use the
recording's aircraft instead of the user's default. Limit recording
download rate if /sim/replay/download-max-bytes-per-sec is set, by
calling new filerequest->setMaxBytesPerSec().
Gives the ability to define graphics settings via an XML file at
startup or later during runtime. Tracks if changes to graphics settings
required additional actions (eg, scenery reload or restart of the sim)
When a preset is active, and properties are modified, the system will
detect this and mark the preset as edited.
Overview:
Previously Flightgear always used a single osgViewer::Viewer(), which
inherits from both osgViewer::ViewerBase and osgViewer::View, giving a
single view window.
If CompositeViewer is enabled, we instead use a osgViewer::CompositeViewer
which contains a list of osgViewer::View's. Each of these View's can have
its own eye position, so we can have multiple different views of the same
scene.
Enable at runtime with: --composite-viewer=1
Changes to allow use of osgViewer::CompositeViewer:
Previously FGRenderer had this method:
osgViewer::Viewer* getViewer();
This has been replaced by these two new methods:
osgViewer::ViewerBase* getViewerBase();
osgViewer::View* getView();
If CompositeViewer is not enabled (the default), the actual runtime state
is unchanged, and getViewerBase() and getView() both return a pointer to
the singleton osgViewer::Viewer() object.
If CompositeViewer is enabled, getViewerBase() returns a pointer to a
singleton osgViewer::CompositeViewer object, and getView() returns a
pointer to the first osgViewer::View in the osgViewer::CompositeViewer's
list.
The other significant change to FGRenderer() is the new method:
osg::FrameStamp* getFrameStamp()
If CompositeViewer is not enabled, this simply returns
getView()->getFrameStamp(). If CompositeViewer is enabled it returns
getViewerBase()->getFrameStamp(). It is important that code that previously
called getView()->getFrameStamp() is changed to use the new method, because
when CompositeViewer is enabled individual osgViewer::View's appear to
return an osg::FrameStamp with zero frame number).
All code that uses FGRenderer has been patched up to use the new methods so
that things work as before regardless of whether CompositeViewer is enabled
or not.
We make FGRenderer::update() call SviewUpdate() which updates any extra
views.
Extra view windows:
If CompositeViewer is enabled, one can create top-level extra view windows
by calling SviewCreate(). See src/Viewer/sview.hxx for details.
Each extra view window has its own simgear::compositor::Compositor
instance.
Currently SviewCreate() can create extra view windows that clone the
current view, or view from one point to another (e.g. from one multiplayer
aircraft to the user's aircradt) or keep two aircraft in view, one at a
fixed distance in the foreground.
SviewCreate() can be called from nasal via new nasal commands "view-clone",
"view-last-pair", "view-last-pair-double" and "view-push". Associated
changes to fgdata gives access to these via the View menu. The "view-push"
command tags the current view for later use by "view-last-pair" and
"view-last-pair-double".
Extra view windows created by SviewCreate() use a new view system called
Sview, which allows views to be constructed at runtime instead of being
hard-coded in *-set.xml files. This is work in progress and views aren't
all fully implemented. For example Pilot view gets things slightly wrong
with large roll values, Tower View AGL is not implemented, and we don't
implement damping. See top of src/Viewer/sview.cxx for an overview.
OpenSceneGraph-3.4 issues:
OSG-3.4's event handling seems to be incorrect with CompositeViewer -
events get sent for the wrong window which causes issues with resize and
closing. It doesn't seem to be possible to work around this, so closing
extra view windows can end up closing the main window for example.
OSG-3.6 seems to fix the problems.
We warn if CompositeViewer is enabled and OpenSceneGraph is 3.4.
- Removed the ENABLE_COMPOSITOR CMake flag.
- Removed /sim/version/compositor-support.
- Removed miscellaneous branching to check if the Compositor is enabled.
- Removed custom resource loader since Compositor Effects are now located in $FG_ROOT/Effects.
- Removed splash screen warning.
- Only use the Compositor versions of CameraGroup and FGRenderer.
- Fix redout/blackout not appearing under certain circumstances.
If user specified --load-tape then failure to load it should be fatal to avoid
confusion. It also avoids needlessly overwriting a valid recovery tape if
/sim/replay/recovery-period is set.
This causes QApplication to become unhappy and crash, so use a
graceful exit via a new return code and FG_OPTIONS_EXIT instead.
Sentry-Id: FLIGHTGEAR-6B
Allow add-ons to define an FGData subdir, and support multiple —data=
command line arguments, to avoid the need to modify FG_ROOT (which might
be read-only). Allow additional data paths to be either higher or lower
priority than FG_ROOT, so that add-ons cannot replace files in FG_ROOT.
Takes special values "FLOLS" and "abeam" to set up
aligned for final approach or at the 180 for the carrier flight
deck. Or alternatively a catapult or parking position.
Support for --carrier-abeam option, which places the aircraft
at the end of a downwind opposite the FLOLS.
Add launcher support for above.
Add carrier display for launcher showing position relative to
carrier.
Allow selecting carriers from scenarios, and starting at either a
parking position, or a distance offset from the FLOLS (effectively
a crude ‘on-final’)
Extend the —carrier startup option to accept a runway ident of FLOLS,
in conjunction with the existing —offset-distance argument.
Still not complete, but now we set the command line args to be UTF-8 on
Windows, we can strip out more of the ‘local 8-bit’ places (which
screw up, generally).
This prevents the changing of the logstream priority as set by the test suite
permanently to "alert" during the execution of tests. Setting a default value
of SG_ALERT is not required as this is the simgear logstream default anyway.
Enhancements suggested by Nikolai Verner-Christensen - support loading
scenarios from {FG_HOME}/Scenarios, {aircraft-dir}/Scenarios and
{add-on}/Scenarios.
Additionally, allow passing the path to a scenario file to
—ai-scenario, eg —ai-scenario=/home/jmt/FGFS/my-test-scenario.xml
When a scenario defines a carrier, and —carrier is used to request a
carrier start, we now auto-load the corresponding scenario, to give
a nicer user experience.
