and scaling of control values to properties. Also added a time interpolation
feature that replaces the hacked-in "retract-time" feature for the gear in
a more general way (applicable to flaps, too!). Incompatibly breaks
the XML syntax; get new files!
Dynamics (Sim)ulator. Basically, this is a rough, first cut of a "different
take" on FDM design. It's intended to be very simple to use,
producing reasonable results for aircraft of all sorts and sizes,
while maintaining simulation plausibility even in odd flight
conditions like spins and aerobatics. It's at the point now where one
can actually fly the planes around.
