I believe DaveM mentioned wanting to keep the DC3 in a side profile view within AC3D so that it was easier for him while developing it and adjusted the FGFS files accordingly at the time. > The location of the scenery origin is another. I thought I that this would have been self evident apon reading the code sections I pointed out yesterday. But just to be clear THERE IS NO FIXED SCENERY ORIGIN Since Float32's do not have enough precision FGFS uses a moving 'local origin'. The code that does this can be just thought of as a 'black box' as it is all handled for you transparently and is made available as scenery.get_center() FWIW This is meant to be a 'black box' concept as it can shift location at any time but it 'better' coincide with the 'current' tile's Center Point Cheers Norman _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
