Remove various hacks and make magvar work like a normal subsystem, as part of the environment manager. Fix the remaining users of the globals->get_mag accessor, and hence kill off the global pointer.
Unit is spoken for all values <1000hPa (to avoid confusion with inHg).
Unit is not spoken for values >=1000hPa (but don't drop highest digit).
(And we should replace "millibars" with "hectopascal" - we're missing the
necessary voice sample though.)
- property-interpolate now supports specifying the
interpolation time by passing rate instead of the actual time,
similar to max-rate-of-change in the noise-spike filter.
Something after FG 2.8.0 has broken loading aircraft models from
--fg-aircraft directories. Issue is fixed by resolving the aircraft path
in FGAircraftModel (though this module itself hasn't changed and things
were working before...).
Distros like Debian/Ubuntu use architecture-specific directory structures
(like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu) which we cannot hardcode/guess, so we
really need to search the default paths.
- Groups store property nodes for different styles and pass them
to child elements on creation (No dynamic updates yet)
- Use StyleSetter map instead of loads of if/else if statements
for setting element styles.
- Unify element style properties (Only use one property, instead
of multiple like it has been with colors)
- Fix: Create only one element per property node (Was two)
This might need to be back-ported to 2.8 (to make a 2.8.1), unless it's been exposed by some of my other changes. Which I think is unlikely but not impossible.
so package builders don't need local patches.
Also, instead of hardcoded firefox, use "xdg-open" or "sensible-browser"
launchers on Linux, to auto-detect user's preferred browser.
Override with cmake switch -DWEB_BROWSER=...
(Not affecting Mac/Win which are hard-coded anyway).
This manual page seems to contain a hyphen where a minus sign was
intended. By default, "-" chars are interpreted as hyphens (U+2010) by
groff, not as minus signs (U+002D). Since options to programs use minus
signs (U+002D), this means for example in UTF-8 locales that you cannot
cut and paste options, nor search for them easily. The Debian groff
package currently forces "-" to be interpreted as a minus sign due to
the number of manual pages with this problem, but this is a
Debian-specific modification and hopefully eventually can be removed.
"-" must be escaped ("\-") to be interpreted as minus. If you really
intend a hyphen (normally you don't), write it as "\(hy" to emphasise
that fact. See groff(7) and especially groff_char(7) for details.
