- fix corrupted ident on Mac (libc++ issue)
- don't clear scratch when activating DTO mode
- use the real navaid/airport for the waypt where possible
- expose active waypt name
- Calculate line of sight distance instead of distance over
ground
- Do a nav cache update if carrier_nav.dat.gz timestamp has
changed
- Allow comments in carrier_nav.dat.gz
- "Fix" range calculations (still does not take terrain/weather
and other influences into account)
Added the fallback for realweather fetch disabled, creating
ATIS from present weather
Fixed some formatting errors, mainly missing spaces
Some code cleanup
For 2.12, ensure all GPS instruments are backwards
compatible, however they were requested. Post release we can create a new instrument name with the compatibility code disabled.
There's a sufficiently large installed base, that simply dropping this
API is not acceptable. A Nasal shim might be possible, but in the
interim, restore the C++ functionality.
Generic transponder can emulate KT-70 props. These emulated props
will likely die in the future, based on feedback from aircraft devs.
See (upcoming) Wiki docs on the transponder for more info.
Ensure all FGPositioned related functions return SGSharedPtr
instead of raw pointers to allow automatic conversion to
nasal ghosts without custom helper functions.
added measured-total-pressure property to account for a normal
shockwave in front of pitot tube at supersonic speeds. momentarily not
used
small unit conversion correction of inHg to hPa in altimeter
Base airspeed calculations on impact pressure in instrumentation
/airspeed_indicator
This allows delegates to take action when the flightlan is cleared, and especially, for the default delegate in the route-manager to deactivate itself, and hence the GPS LEG mode - which fixes bug 940 I hope.
One of the two route termination conditions was improperly handled, leading to bad leg/wpt indices and exceptions from the GPS code. Detect passing the final waypoint in a more robust way now.
Also fix the GPS code to avoid turn computation on the final leg.
Don't show invalid AI/MP models in the HUD (after they were removed from
the scene).
Also, when a radar is installed, consider radar/in-range for HUD display.
Error/offset induced by precession and yaw also depend on spin (no spin =>
no additional error/offset).
Error/offset induced by changing a/c orientation while gyro spin is
low (<<1) should apply to the "offset" (instead of "error") property.
An upcoming commit will make the sound headers standalone, and no longer include various other headers / using std:: declarations. Prepare for this by making includes and usage of namespaces explicit.
- Only render the canvas if something has actually changed
(Currently checked by looking for modified properties).
- Only write bounding box to property tree if it has been
recalculated (until now this happened every frame).
Low spin or switched off gyros result in the indicator being stuck.
When the gyros are repowered, the indication doesn't jump to the correct
indication, but keeps the current error.
so they can instantly adjust to the changed environment.
(Not fully working yet, since some environment settings, like environemnt
pressure/temperature, still changes slowly after a sim reset - instead of
immediately jumping to the new setting. Also, METAR sometimes arrives too
late...).
Cache the parsed navigation and airport data in a binary file to reduce
startup times and memory consumption (since only referenced FGPositioned
elements are held in memory).
Data will be reimported when the mod-time of any input file is changed.
If a global file is changed (nav.dat, awy.dat, apt.dat, etc), the cache
will be completely rebuilt, which takes approximately 30 seconds on
moderate hardware. (Future work may reduce this).
Various classes derive from SubsystemGroup, but extend the init behaviour. Fix those for the incremental init scheme, generally by forcing their init to be atomic. Can convert them to be truly incremental in the future if it's needed, but probably not.
Remove various hacks and make magvar work like a normal subsystem, as part of the environment manager. Fix the remaining users of the globals->get_mag accessor, and hence kill off the global pointer.
- Refactor CanvasMgr into PropertyBasedMgr to be also used
for the Canvas GUI system.
- Get rid of tied properties in the Canvas system.
- Add new placement type 'window' for placing canvases onto
windows
- Pass mouse events to Window class (only if cursor is over
window)
- Refactor canvas placement clean up
- Allow hiding objects
- Use UTF-8 encoding for text elements
- Add paramter max-width to text elements
- Support stroke-linecap for path elements
- Fix mouse coords
- Set better mipmap filter
Add same property as for nav radio, to provide a property to cockpit models
whether the ADF is active (serviceable/switched on/power ok/...). Useful
to enable/disable displays (i.e. KR87).
The glideslope station was only searched once whenever the NAV station
changed. However, sometimes a mismatching G/S station is found, since
another G/S station is still closer when the NAV station changes.
When this happened, the G/S station was never updated again (while the
NAV station stayed in range), resulting in the NAV receiver providing
correct localizer, but bad G/S data (data matching another, remote station).
Issue is fixed by alternating between searching NAV and G/S stations.
Make sure gs-inrange and deflection outputs have same behaviour, no matter
which out-of-range condition applies (i.e. aircraft moved out of range,
frequency changed, ...).
- Support text-enable condition on symbols
- support <limit>N</limit> on symbols to restrict
to closest N symbol instances.
- change search to hopefully be more stable at
larger ranges.
