Util.java was added to the repo commenting "Half-finished utility class.".
No more progress since (10 years!), so just exclude the file from the
java build by changing its extension.
distance_to_go / lead_distance were not initialized in all constructors.
Fixes 'condition on uninitialized data' reported by valgrind.
Also comment-out unused vars.
The new renderer is activated by the --enable-rembrandt option, or in the preferences.xml file.
The renderer at this stage doesn't have shadows yet, and shows a lighting bug. The slash screen doesn't work too.
FGFX::init/soundfx::init use "_avionics" unconditionally, so it has to be
valid, even when avionics sound is disabled. Also allow to properly
enable/disable avioncis sound at run-time.
This way of scenery paging is really application code.
Now that the simgear stg loader is seperated from the paging
code, this appication specific paging can reside here.
May be at some time also use the spt stuff here.
- move property /sim/auto-coordination to
/controls/flight/auto-coordination
- introduce new property /controls/flight/auto-coordination-factor
with default of 0.5
- auto-coordinate the rudder if auto-coordination is true and the factor
is greater than zero
backward compatibility for the old property is temporary provided by
a temporary Nasal hack in FGDATA/Nasal/aircraft.nas
There used to be a hardcoded visibility of 1000m below which the
sky was disabled. This distance is now bound to
/sim/rendering/minimum-sky-visibility with a default value of 1000
Since d91a617423 (vectory color calculations)
all 4 elements of a color were scaled with the respective brightness.
The caused some panels to be transparent at night etc.
Before the change, only the 3 RGB elements of the colors were scaled,
while the 4th element (alpha channel?) remained unaltered.
Commit restores the alpha elements to their original behaviour.
=> "Quick hack" for 2.6.0. Need s.o. to double check the initial changes
and commit something clean to "next".
Commit 5f0066c resulted in an incorrect angle calculation. At certain view/sun
angles "hor_rotation" and "rf1" would skip from the minimum to the maximum
value).
Also, an offset angle of 90 degrees (PI/2) is added, which seems to align
the sky effect with the sun position. Calculation is probably still wrong,
but seems less wrong than before - and the flickering is gone...
