Added an initial freeze on startup so that we can try to avoid bouncing the
plane on it's back during the very low frame rate / scenery loading startup
conditions.
Cleaned a bit of cruft out of gui.[ch]xx
Cleaned up win_ratio() and fov code to make more sense and be a bit more
consistant and robust and less buggy and less susceptible to screw ups.
Panel is activated now by default, HUD is off by default.
from the pre-ssg / render everything ourselves days. Replaced with a
material library manager that is much better suited for working in the
context of ssg. This simplified and cleaned up a ton of old junk.
1. I've modified src/Time/fg_time.cxx so that the --start-date-gmt
option works correctly, at least on my system.
2. I've modified src/Main/bfi.cxx to return the correct time from
FGBFI::getTimeGMT(), so that saving and reloading now keeps the time set
correctly again.
3. I've modified src/Main/main.cxx so that the engine still makes a
noise when it's idling (it sounded very strange when the engine simply
turned off at idle then magically turned on again with a little
throttle).
Tony submitted:
JSBsim:
Added trimming routine, it is longitudinal & in-air only at this point
Added support for taking wind & weather data from external source
Added support for flaps.
Added independently settable pitch trim
Added alphamin and max to config file, stall modeling and warning to
follow
c172.cfg:
Flaps!
Adjusted Cmo, model should be speed stable now
FG:
Hooked up Christian's weather code, should be using it soon.
Hooked up the trimming routine. Note that the X-15 will not trim.
This is not a model or trimming routine deficiency, just the
nature of the X-15
The trimming routine sets the pitch trim and and throttle at startup.
The throttle is set using Norman's code for the autothrottle so the
autothrottle is on by default. --notrim will turn it off.
Added --vc, --mach, and --notrim switches
(vc is airspeed in knots)
uBody, vBody, and wBody are still supported, last one entered
on the command line counts, i.e. you can set vc or mach or u,v,
and w but any combination will be ignored.
