hope, with earlier versions as well)
- support for the new LONG value type
- gear support for UIUC (updated for the newly renamed SG_* stuff;
otherwise identical to what I sent you before)
- fixed reported MSVC problem in src/FDM/flight.cxx
a) I was compairing feet vs. meter (making the range 3x too. big)
b) I was using the diameter in place of the radius (making the range an
additional 2x too big.)
c) Updated the equation for calculating range to model the weak transmitter
not being picked up at upper altitudes.
We still might need some additional tweaking, but I think we are starting to
get in the right ball park.
is 9 not 8.) Note that the initial altitude setting was placing us way below
the ground, but as it doesn't seem to have caused us problems, it's probably
redundant!
Added fuel-flow and total fuel to the LaRCSim model. Its still a bit
rough for now but it works, except the engine dosn't stop when fuel runs
out at the moment since there's no refuelling capability in the sim just
now. It takes about 4 gallons use before you see the fuel guages begin
to drop since there's 28 gal per tank but the guages go to 26.
DG heading bug initializes to a random setting.
Activating heading hold doesn't touch the DG heading bug any more.
Max autopilot decent rate is now -1000.
restoreInitialState methods to FGGlobals, as well as the two-stage
commit described above for loading saved files. fgInit now takes a
snapshot of the initial state before handing off to the main loop, and
the GUI reInit function restores that state explicitly before calling
fgReInit.
The FlightGear patches also modify fg_props.hxx to add optional
useDefault arguments to all of the fgTie functions -- that lets you
choose whether you want to pick up any default value in the property
tree when you tie the property (the default is true).
