otherwise, the logic in FGEngine::ConsumeFuel breaks down and the
engine is starved when *any* feed tank is empty, rather than when all
feed tanks are empty.
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.
Changed _set_Accels_Pilot_Body to use FGAuxiliary::GetNpilot instead
of FGAuxiliary::GetPilotAccel. It looks like a similar change was
started but never finished, and there are artifacts still lingering.
With this change, the slip/skid ball now works reasonably on the C172
when in motion, but not at rest (that will have to wait for fixes to
the gear code).
- automake-1.4 sets default values for INCLUDES which we can't
overwrite.
- automake-1.5 renames this to DEFAULT_INCLUDES and leaves INCLUDES
open for the developer to use.
Thus for automake-1.4 we are forced to 'append' to INCLUDES and in
automake-1.5 we can just set the value to whatever we like.
Unfortunately, the behaviors of the two versions are mutually
incompatible.
The solution I am committing now works for both versions but
automake-1.5 generates a lot of spurious warning messages that are
annoying, but not fatal.
(i.e. multiloop). Most subsystems currently ignore the parameter, but
eventually, it will allow all subsystems to update by time rather than
by framerate.
FGInterface::_updateGeocentricPosition() for clarity. Also added an
FGInterface::_updateGeodeticPosition() since it is useful.
A few clean ups to native_fdm.cxx and raw_fdm.hxx.
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.
Note there is still a problem when doing a 'reset' after doing
a 'goto'. Curt says: I also see that doing two subsequent reset's on a
JSBSim model results in a segfault in a deconstructor deep inside JSBSim.
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.
- 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
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.
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.
one I sent yesterday. I have re-zipped all four files so you can
neglect the last lot but only io360.cxx has changed if you've
already committed. It's untested since I can't start the engine until
John has committed his update with separate properties. Should
work fine though.
that overrides in JSBSim will work (i.e. properties can be set)
- modified set_(u|v|w)Body to use set_Velocities_Wind_Body, so
that overrides in JSBSim will work (i.e. properties can be set)
