[Flightgear-devel] Multiplayer Server RFC -- Current Status

2003-11-09 Thread Michael Matkovic
Could you describe the --headless option (Phase 1 changes)? Sounds a little like what I'm trying to get Flightgear to do. / /I was hoping to have multiple airplanes (each controlled by an individual program), each being updated once per video render instead of having independent execution

[Flightgear-devel] Multiplayer synchronisation

2003-11-25 Thread Michael Matkovic
Im not sure if I posted this question once before... well here it goes again :-D Using the --multiplay option I've tried having 2 planes fly closely in formation. My version of flightgear has been changed so that at each frame, a seperate controlling program (via socket connection) issues a

[Flightgear-devel] undefined reference to `ssgCullAndDraw(ssgRoot*)'

2003-12-04 Thread Michael Matkovic
I couldn't find a solution to this one in recent posts, but it seemed like a common problem. I get this linker error even though I successfully compiled the cvs versions of plib and simgear. Any suggestions? /usr/local/SimGear-cvs/lib/libsgsky.a(cloud.o): In function

[Flightgear-devel] multiplayer doesn't work properly

2004-06-08 Thread Michael Matkovic
I'm not sure if this is an isolated problem I'm experiencing, or is every flightgear user (using multiplayer) quietly in denial about the poor performance of the multiplayer option??? I speak of the jittery, unstable presence of the 'other plane' when using flightgear on one PC or across the

[Flightgear-devel] distance to nearby objects

2004-07-18 Thread Michael Matkovic
Does FlightGear provide some sort of way to determine distance between the aircraft and a stationary object?... ie, building, mountain. I'm working on an autonomous flight controller and need to have this sort of feedback. If not, could anyone suggest how this could be done? Where in the source

[Flightgear-devel] outdated docs

2004-08-03 Thread Michael Matkovic
I was looking into learning more about the Flight Gear Periodic Event Manager and Scheduler in the 'Documentation' link but found the info was a bit outdated. Looking through the latest source code, I could only find one reference to FG_EVENT_READY, and that was commented out. So is there an

2005-04-06 Thread Michael Matkovic
Could anyone point me to a website, docs or other info which would show me how to get distances to nearest objects of the aircraft I'm flying in Flightgear? Is this available in Flightgear? What I'm trying to do is make a mock vision system for an external flight controller program which would

2005-07-05 Thread Michael Matkovic
Can anyone suggest a way of accessing the methods: GetCoefficientValues(...) and GetCoefficientStrings(...) from a --native socket? I have a piece of code within flightgear which uses 'globals' and 'cur_fdm_state' via a socket similar to the --native socket provided with flightgear. I'd need to

Hi Jon, Thanks for the reply. OK. Two options... hacking the code to get fdmex, or using the aircraft's XML file. I've attempted to hack the code to get fdmex, but was unsuccessful. I have 2 variables I could use but niether have helped, even if I have an fdmex getter defined in JSBSim...
