Compute gravitational acceleration based on the formula of
Somigliana corrected for altitude and provide the value
in property /environment/gravitational-acceleration-mps2
1. The atmospheric properties of FG are not yet initialized when
JSBSim is initialized.
-> patch is quite basic and there may exist smarter ways to initialize
properly the environment before the FDM.
2. The Euler angles were initialized after the velocities.
3. The glide slope and rate of climb were ignored. Fixes all FDMs (YASim,
UIUC, JSBSim, etc.)
4. Some properties were instructed to re-use their previous value while
they should not.
5. Some bugs existed in JSBSim trim code. -> This bug has already been
fixed in JSBSim but the corresponding patch has not yet been applied to FG.
Seems the hack was necessary for the pre-OSG display only. Or the feature
is broken since OSG port altogether. But it caused issues for 3D and 2D
cockpits when /sim/virtual-cockpit wasn't enabled. => Removing for now.
Fixes an ugly issue with OSG overwriting memory/stack. wxradar triggered
the issue in display mode "ARC" - since it configured a display mask (12
vertices) but all vertices were immediately removed again ("_vertices->clear()").
Issue is fixed, mask now working - however the mask wasn't even properly
aligned for the display (probably never worked since OSG port). The display
mask is only really required for weather display - so disabling for now.
Original property-rules in keyboard.xml toggled master and clock freeze
independently - which caused issues when only one property was true. New
command toggles both properties consistently.
This reverts commit b36b33f716.
See #316: Caused issues with sky becoming black in dense fog.
Also: when the fog issue is solved, we could configure the constant
(black) clear color once only (during init), no need to do it in every
loop. Also, entire "if (skyblend) { ... } else {..}" was redundant,
since "if" and "else" clauses were all identical - and the "clearColor"
variables were unused. => Once the fog issue is solved, we can easily
improve the clearColor configuration here.
Panning feature looked broken to some users since auto-center is enabled
by default which blocks panning. center-on-aircraft is now disabled
automatically when view is panned.
