Things I want to do -- CLO
Scenery Creation Bugs
=====================
- Columbia river has a section colored with default material
(-119.436, 45.920) tile #991738.
- I see lakes that aren't properly flattened
- Add vertex points to tile edges so we reduce the chance of having
big "W" folds at tile borders.
? Lake Washington (around seattle came out all forest.) Tile #942691.
Upon some investigation (April 22, 2005) it appears that this is an
unfortunate side effect of trying to mix GSHSS and VMAP data. Lake
Washington is considered a "lake" by GSHHS so it's not part of the
top level land mass polygons. However, VMAP connects this to the
ocean, so it doesn't have it in it's lake data. We might have to
consider using just VMAP0 data because GSHHS has problems with the
great lakes and other places ... it's great for shorelines though
and *much* better than VMAP which is really disappointing ...
x Fixed a bug in tgChopNormalPolygon that could leave big chunks out
of the final output.
x Some areas not getting colored right now that we went to this 400m segment
length (pick biggest triangle for point inside, but not in a hole?)
For instance, LFPG should be surrounded by farmland, but comes out
only with default.
This appears to be a problem with TGVPF which calls the "wrong"
polygon chop routine. The one it called leveraged a simplisted
polygon splitter which couldn't handle multi-contour polygons or
polygons with holes. This led to some incorrect output which is
hopefully now fixed. So I guess it was not so much a problem with
tgvpf, but an underlying library function it called.
x a big hole in the Florida scenery around 26deg 27' 958"N, 80deg 04'
855"W. 1X4 has bogus taxiway data which appears to be causing this
problem.
x (05/13/2004) 2990811 in e002n49 fails to build. Remove cycles was
no-oped because a key line was commented out ... not sure why but
the code was commented out when it was put in ... that probably
means it was pasted from elsewhere, but I didn't want to dig that
much to figure out where it might have come from.
x Put original 3 arcsec dem data as a higher priority than the 30 arcsec
global data.
Airport Generator
=================
- LPMA, LICJ has a problem with skirt nodes.
- Figure out where the massive memory leak is (probably nurbs++).
- Generate a surface square for towers, beacons, and wind socks to sit on.
- Create heliports with an actual "H" texture.
- come up with a way to mix in dem terrain elevation changes while
preserving the published altitude at the end of each runway
x Add support for the X-Plane 8.x format
x (11/08/2004) P13 and KBUR have shelves.
x KMIC missing grass runway (database problem) :-(
x KBTM (figure out flaw)
x limit the amount of rate of elevation change (slope) like we do
for rivers
x (4/26/2004) Figure out airport elevation bug!!!! (Maybe fixed, need to
monitor closely during next rebuild.) Check KSAN, EGNM, KBUR?, KANE, ...
We now only average airport points for the airport average height, not the
whole area ... that broke down when the airport was on a hill or in a bowl,
or there was a significant elevation change within the area near by.
x (04/06/2004) KABQ has way too much elevation change, need to make better
limiters (maybe based on slope rather than overall elevation change?)
x KPOC (grass in middle of runway)
x KOXR (grass in middle of runway)
x KTVL (grass area in middle of runway)
x KMRY (grass in middle of runway)
x EPWA (sunken runway)
x (04/06/2004) Fix approach lighting relative to displaced thresholds.
x (10/31/2002) fix problems with skirt being wrong node count
x threshold lighting, group by rwy end, not by viewing direction.
x don't let approach lighting go lower than the altitude of the end of
the runway
x finish lighting schemes.
Tile Generation
===============
- Put skirts around every hole
- Also do this in the on-the-fly flightgear ocean tile generator.
Model Output
============
- Strippify rather than fan-ify
Roads/Streams
=============
- Cut holes for these, don't let the triangulator split up the edges.
- Make corners into nicer radius?
- Lay a texture down appropriately so that it actually looks like a
road (stream?)
- Create a logical road network near airports so we can create moving
traffic?
Mesh Simplification
===================
x Find a more intelligent way to simplify the regular DEM mesh into a
TIN - terra!
Work Data
==========
x Regenerate DEM30 data (new code doesn't generate areas that are all
0 elevation saving a ton of space.)
