Removed configuration option --with-new-environment and
FG_NEW_ENVIRONMENT macro.
Added configuration option --with-weathercm and FG_WEATHERCM macro.
FGEnvironment is now the default; use --with-weathercm to get the old
weather.
- changed FGSubsystem::update(int) to
FGSubsystem::update(delta_time_sec); the argument is now delta time
in seconds rather than milliseconds
- added FGSubsystem::suspend(), FGSubsystem::suspend(bool),
FGSubsystem::resume(), and FGSubsystem::is_suspended(), all with
default implementations; is_suspended takes account of the master
freeze as well as the subsystem's individual suspended state
- the FDMs now use the delta time argument the same as the rest of
FlightGear; formerly, main.cxx made a special case and passed a
multiloop argument
- FDMs now calculate multiloop internally instead of relying on
main.cxx
There are probably some problems -- I've done basic testing with the
major FDMs and subsystems, but we'll probably need a few weeks to
sniff out bugs.
SGTimeStamp "-" operator returns it's result in usec's, there is an upper bound of 37.8 minutes on the maximum difference this operator can reliably report
before the math overflows. I change the global "int elapsed_time_ms" variable
to a "double sim_time_ms" and restructured how the value is calculated.
----
The practical result of the overflow bug is that a large negative dt was
passed to the event manager and the end effect was that no events would
be run until their counters caught up ... in another 37.8 minutes or so.
I made these modifications to correct the problem of getter functions
returning pointers to local variables. Those variables are no longer
locals and become static. One should be aware that it kills reentrancy

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

any more, and will have to use c_str() when setting a string value
from a C++ string.
separate header file. This change will help integrate properties into
JSBSim.
Also, I (David Megginson) removed most of the SimGear include
statements from globals.hxx, reducing the amount of recompilation
every time SimGear changes. This required making minor changes to a
lot of files that were depending on the side-effects of the inclusions
in globals.hxx.
command will save *all* properties, rather than just those marked as
archivable. This feature was requested by Tony Peden to make it
easier to write documentation on the properties, but it should also be
useful for debugging. There is currently no default binding for the
command with the write-all parameter set to true.

changed in the initial altitude setting to 3000ft instead of meters (the panel
is in feet).
properties have been renamed from wind-(north|east|down)-fps to
wind-from-(north|east|down)-fps, and the FDMs modified appropriately.
No other changes should be visible unless FG_OLD_WEATHER is defined.

Akso found and fixed a bug in the simgear that caused the time to go goofy
temporarily while scenery was being loaded.
/sim/freeze/master (implimented)
/sim/freeze/fuel (implimented)
/sim/freeze/position (not implimented)
/sim/freeze/time-of-day (not implimented)
/sim/freeze/master is bound to the 'p' key via keyboard.xml, however,
/sim/freeze/fuel is not bound to anything at the moment so you must
change it via the external property interface, or specify an initial
value on the command line.
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.
other -- it is now possible to set properties at startup (such as an
autopilot altitude). The only user-visible change, other than the
fact that the properties work as they are supposed to, is that the
heading bug no longer starts at a random value.
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.
- 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
to control logging
- /sim/logging/classes takes a value like "terrain|astro", where the
names are the macros from simgear/debug/debug_types.h with the
initial "SG_" removed and converted to lower case; for none, use
"none"
- /sim/logging/priority takes a single name like "warn", where the
name is a macro from simgear/debug/debug_types.h with the initial
"SG_" removed and converted to lower case
fix startup sequence problems where we initialize the FDM before we know
the desired starting altitude.
These changes delay fdm initialization until the local tile has been loaded
and we can do a real intersection and find the true ground elevation.
In order to do this, I depend more on the property manager as glue, rather
than the FGInterface.
There are some glitches still when switching to a new airport or reseting
the sim. I will work on addressing these, but I need to commit the changes
so far to keep in sync with other developers.
meaning of "win_ratio". I've removed win_ratio and added fov_ratio and
aspect_ratio, as it seems both are needed.
n.b. The multi-line changes in fgReshape comprise:
extracting common code,
removing an apparently arbitrary "+1" on the view height,
changing "set_win_ratio" to "set_aspect_ratio".
through the controls interface and the running and cranking flags through
the engine interface. This has no current effect on LaRCsim (other than
to make the code neater) but is necessary to add engine startup to JSBSim
which is now underway. I've also put in main.cxx which escaped getting
committed in the previous round of changes - adding this will add
the cranking sound to LaRCsim during engine startup.
- use guiErrorMessage
- added new properties /sim/view/pilot/x-offset-m,
/sim/view/pilot/y-offset-m, and /sim/view/pilot/z-offset-m to
control pilot-position offset from CG
