- Add update-interval-secs to the entire autopilot
- cache min/max values in InputValue
- a little more relaxed "equals zero" checking in the NoiseSpikeFilter
- add new <update-interval-secs> for autopilot components.
This does what it says.
- add new method to PeriodicalValue to normalize symmetric around zero
- move the DigitalFilterImplementation out of the header file
- refactor NoiseSpikeFilter: spare some cpu-cycles and respect periodical
output
Whenever resolving a (relative) path to an absolute path with
'resolve_maybe_aircraft_path', check if the result is empty and report original
(relative) path as missing. Otherwise no or a meaningless message is
issued ("File '' not found.").
The tag <initialize-to> can be used to control the value
of the output when the component is first enabled. This
controls initialization of the output property and the current
value for internal computation
Valid values are
<initialize-to>input</initialize-to>
set the output-property to the input value
<initialize-to>output</initialize-to>
set the output-property to the output value
<initialize-to>none</initialize-to>
ignore input and output value
Signature of Predictor::configure must match AnalogComponent::configure,
otherwise the inherited method isn't overridden.
=> predictor couldn't be configured.
=> speed predictor rules in "generic-autopilot-helper.xml" weren't working.
The autopilot has grown beyond being just an autopilot. It's
components, filters and controllers could be used to set property
values based on complex rules and driven from other property values.
That's why I chose to give it the name "property-rule".
This patch allows to define an arbitrary number of property rules under
a/sim/property-rule[n]/path
using the same syntax as autopilot configurations.
Add helper to look for an aircraft branch path in multiple candidate locations.
Update the main subsystems to use the helper, and hence load from any aircraft dir.
- Respect the global inverted flag in the get_output() method
- Check the clock state before processing the static R/S inputs
- Emit debug output only on a state change
