I wonder ... I don't know much about where FG stores it's various files, now. For JSBSim standalone I think we would have a file that sits in the base directory (from which JSBSim is run) or specified in an environment variable JSBSIM_ROOT. This file I am referring to for JSBSim would serve to set up simulation specific (something that is not or should not be aircraft or initial conditions-specific) parameters, like: - atmosphere model choice (including whether it is earth or Mars - stay tuned) - Output logging - choice of integrators for various calculations (see McFarland paper) - etc. Jon _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
