Norman Vine kindly pointed me at the SG conversion function, so I now have output in X,Y,Z. I'm using great chunks of submodel code, much of which is redundant in this context, so I need to tighten this up. However, I've added the function to the Seafire as a demonstrator. I still have to adjust the hook tip for compression when it's in contact with the ground. I'll have a first cut of all this code ready after the weekend, I hope. So far so good V. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
