4fca15fa1d Avoid a possible segfault crash if a nonexistant airport is specified. 2004-02-25 02:16:36 +00:00

4b424a29e7 David Culp: 
I went through the AI code to put the "bank" node back into the config file,
so the models can fly circles.  While I was in there I made some other
changes.

*)  Moved the initialization of roll, tgt-roll, pitch ... etc, from init()
into the constructor, so it wouldn't over-write the config settings.

*)  Changed the altitude getter to remove the meters-to-feet conversion.  The
altitude is kept internally in feet.  Only the scenery code needs meters.

*)  Added "bank" item for config file (for type=aircraft).  Left bank is
negative.

*)  Added "rudder" item for config file (for type=ship).  Left rudder is
negative.  Internally this is stored in the "roll" variable, but the ship
model doesn't roll.  It uses the "roll" variable for turning though.


The following puts a tanker at 3000 feet, 6 nm northwest of KSFO.  On takeoff,
the tanker is visible over the hanger building at one-o'clock.

31e563c2a4 A first stab at limiting the noaa.gov query to only valid stations. There 
are many recognized limitations and inefficiencies with this entire approach,
however, it's a quick and dirty way to get something working, where before
we didn't.

86e94fd08e Frederic Bouvier: 
The last change from Curt to Airports/simple.[ch]xx made
GUI/AirportList.cxx not compilable because of the loss of
a '*' in getAirport.

Also : fabs is not defined under MSVC unless <math.h> is
included.

11e0b75bc3 Oops, call *re*init() so that the weather conditions (not just clouds)

a8be680c43 Enhance the FGMetarEnvironmentCtrl class to also do on the fly weather 
updates based on the "closest" airport with metar data available.  Note that
the web based query is in the main loop and causes brief sim pauses.  Update
rate (once per minute) needs to be tweaked with, but is a good value for
testing.

4606f96e13 Various mods to allow querying for nearest airport (with optional ability to 
only query those stations with metar weather available.)  Metar availability

b464703a6f For metar, correctly update visibility and pressure/altimeter. Temp and 
clouds need to be implimented (and adjusted for station elevation.)
