Re: [Flightgear-devel] Re: New A-4/jet panel instruments
* Jon S Berndt -- Thursday 20 June 2002 18:14: Any chance someone could post some screen shots of the panel? http://www.unet.univie.ac.at/~a8603365/fgfs4.jpeg I get that, too. What I'm missing in recent releases is display of the gear in the outside view and keyboard control of throttle and flaps. This appeared to be introduced the the recent A-4 updates in YASim. Can anyone confirm ?

This appeared to be introduced the the recent A-4 updates in YASim. Can anyone confirm ? Works for me. Are you sure you have a current fgfsbase? There's no detectable difference (to the FDM) between keyboard, joystick and mouse control. All of those methods set the same properties in /controls, so I'd be stumped as to the reason only one of them would fail. I can verify that the gear animations work, too; check the values in /surface-positions and make sure that they're changing appropriately. Andy -- Andrew J.

I can verify that the gear animations work, too; I don't even see the gear - the plane is hovering :-) I'm updating all the sources of plib, metakit, SimGear and FlightGear from CVS at least on a daily basis and I'm rsync'ing the base package from 'scenery.flightgear.org::Base'. I just did a new checkout and a new build so I suppose I'm up to date. I'd provide the contents of my ~/.fgfsrc, but I don't believe this has anything to do with it: --aircraft=a4-yasim --airport-id=KOAK --start-date-lat=2002:04:11:11:11:11 --enable-fuel-freeze --wind=270@10:15 --disable-splash-screen --disable-intro-music --control=mouse --enable-auto-coordination --disable-hud --enable-panel --enable-anti-alias-hud BTW, 747-yasim and c310 work great, so I believe it has something to do with the A-4 (which looks really great !), Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -- ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel

AFAIK it works, but I just late last night applied all the code patches and did not test extensively. Will do this evening. What I have noticed in the past is that if you have an xml glitch in your keyboard.xml all the keys before the glitch will work, all the keys after the glitch will not. Generally this is the only case that I've observed where only some of the keys not work. But could be something else I suppose.
