I agree with all of that ... and it should continue in that role. Innis: > I agree with Melchior on this.I found it very usefull when I was playing > around with the AI for Durk awhile back. That too. Maybe a change of name (from UFO) may reduce confusion? Now, should someone try to create an interior looking like a classic UFO (with a funky control panel, LGM passengers, a radio panel that works but looks like it was built from alien lab equipment by alien scientists in order to communicate with human ATC services, etc etc) then I personally would love to see that included in the FGFS model. But ... maybe as an external download ... because it'll be fairly big. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
