Attached patch adds support for multiple FIXes with the same name.
Applies to both branches.
New functionality is in query_and_offset, which now returns the FIX
closest to the passed in location.
Updated route manager to take advantage of this.
Otherwise, query functions return an unspecified member from the set
of identically named FIXes. (This was previously the one occurring
last in the database file, but I don't think anybody counted on that.)
- it's unused
- it's hardcoded (we already got rid of all other hardcoded dialogs)
- we'll have to consider switching to osgWidget, which is planned to
get imported into osg. It's unlikely that we add *more* of PLIB
in the meantime.
"the [...] patch (for fg) increases the time before invisible geometry (i.e.
geometry not inside the view frustrum) gets deleted. default was 10 seconds
which i am increasing to 2 minutes."
on the '*'-key, but allow to cycle it by setting
/sim/rendering/on-screen-statistics to "true"
- move that function to the Debug menu (no more key assigned!)
- add "print-statistics" menu entry
under some circumstances. The history of this patch is somewhat unclear,
but was brought to my attention by Martin Spott, while preparing for the
Lelystad FSWeekend show. See also my posting on FlightGear devel, on
November 22, 2007 "(Multiplayer Local Echo Patch)", but wasn't committed
then because I/we assumed that had been superseded by other code
modifications. The local echo problem still persists, however, albeit
under specific circumstances. The current patch reportedly prevents this
from happening.
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.
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()
Lee has added two new filter types, "gain" and "reciprocal". These filters can
read their gain factor from a property. In the process we also added minimum
and maximum output clamps that are applicable to all filters.
I added the ability to configure adaptive controllers i.e. the controller gain
can be tied to a property, so that it can be changed at runtime. This
requires a change in the xml structure of the autopilot configuration file:
<Kp>
<prop>/autopilot/KAP140/settings/ROL/Kp</prop>
<value>0.10</value>
</Kp> <!-- proportional gain -->
The old method <Kp>0.10</Kp> still works so as to not break all existing
autopilots, but it will output a warning to use the new method.
