a report node in the submodels config:
<impact-reports>/sim/model/cow/impact</impact-reports>
When an impact happens, then the path of the submodel will be written to
this node. An attached listener function can evaluate the impact properties.
at all is that this method is meant to be deprecated. But if it doesn't
say that, and there's no generic replacement at all, then it's rather
pointless.
- simplify parameter initialization (The old code copied from Instrumentation/
but has been simplified there in the same manner a few months ago
The new method is less picky about additional nodes ane outputs less
pointless alerts. If there shall really be a check for that, then
this should be a separate function. But it's nowhere else done in fgfs.
recover instead
- it was apparently planned to run the updated loop only every 1000th
frame, but the counter isn't reset, so it runs every frame
- use SG_LOG instead of cerr
- don't add redundant slashes in SGPath::append()
throwing an instance of 'sg_io_exception'\nAbandon". And this is caused
by compiling fgfs/sg without exception support (unlikely) or linking
against a libSDL/libglut that was compiled/linked without execption
support. While we can't fix that, we can tell the users who's to blame. :-)
- handle const char * exceptions
"minor update for the rotor FDM. It results in a more realistic
calculation of the phase shift of rotor and therefor in a little bit
more realistic flight behavior.
(Additionally you can modify the initial position of the rotor and some
(not finished) modifications for the jet ranger rotor)."
show "secret" values, that is: values of nodes with children. These
can be used like all normal (leaf) properties, but their values were
until now only shown in writeProperties() dumps. Also show the
number of attached listeners. Example: foo = 'bar' (string, AU, L3).
dialog.cxx: add warning message for broken <format>s; cosmetics
- props is easy to mix up with the --prop option (for setting properties)
- the name is unspecific and inconsistent: other option names describe
the protocol -- the way to get the properties. How is, for example,
--httpd less about prop(ertie)s?
- two identical options easily confuse people, as can be seen in The
FlightGear Manual, where --telnet and --props were described differently
/sim/view[*] that it finds. It's not only unnecessary that view definitions
have subsequent indices, but aircraft are now *requested* to use indices
100++. /sim/view[0] .. /sim/view[99] are reserved for the system. (Not
that we'd ever need that many, This is just a convention, it's nowhere
hard-coded.)
- replace the string operations for property paths by method calls & other
improvements
because nasal's f_interpolate() may be called in Nasal at times when the
GENERAL subsystem group is being deconstructed; access it by addressing
the group directly, as using globals->get_subsystem() does then not
work any more then; yeah, it's all for a rare border case ... :-)
NasalSys.cxx more robust instead. The reason for the crash was that during
fgfs shutdown destroyed subsystems (GENERAL group) still need Nasal access
(for AI Model destruction listeners), but at that point globals->get_subsystem()
can't even deliver the "nasal" subsystem (INIT group). One way to solve that
problem would have been to replace globals->get_subsystem("nasal") by
globals->get_subsystem_mgr()->get_group(SGSubsystemMgr::INIT)->get_subsystem("nasal"),
but Andy decided to store a pointer to the active "nasal" subsysten in
NasalSys.cxx instead, as the "nasal" subsystem needs to be accessed in
every single Nasal extension function, and multiple "nasal" subsystems are
out of the question, anyway.
we need to explicitly destroy that here, too, so that it has guaranteed
access to the Nasal subsystem. Otherwise we get a segfault on exit. When
the next subsystem needs this special treatement (radar?), we should
introduce a new subsystem group (in addition to INIT and GENERAL)
"FATAL: PUI: No Live Interface! Forgot to call puInit ?"
We shouldn't use the splash progress message before guiInit().
Leave the "idle_state" step for now, to keep the similarity
with fg/plib as big as possible. This can be dropped later.
