Ha, a so called Image Generator.
I'd guess the net_fdm is capable of handling a single aircraft only,
but you could for exaple post one aircraft - the one where your virtual
pilot is sitting in - via net_fdm and the others for visualization
purpose via the multiplayer interface.

There might be better approaches, though 

Cheers,
Martin.

[Flightgear-devel] multiple external aircraft

2006-09-07 Thread kennorris9

Greetings,
 I am working with a aero simulation that has multiple aircraft. We have never had a graphics display, only position data to analyze post flight. I want to use Flightgear to displayall the aircraft real-time. Iread the how-tosand have looked at the code.
1. Can I send multiple net_fdm (multiple aircraft) structures per frame? On the same display machine. This computer will be dedicated for FlightGear display only. All aircraft position information will be sent via UDP.
2. The simulation is run in a generic Cartesian system that is not located in an actual earth location. I would assume I can transpose theposition information to an actual earthlocation. True?

 Just a comment, this is one of the coolest projects I have encountered. Very impressive.

Thanks, Ken
