I agree it's time for crash detection and handling. I just added a basic
version to my OV-10 sim (can't have public users wallowing around
underground, wondering what to do now :) One decision to make is what the
handler should do once a crash is detected. I have it calling the reinit
code in order to reset the sim to the starting position (below), while others
may prefer to have the sim close after a crash, or perhaps display a
crash-splash screen and/or console warning.
// force a sim reset if crashed (altitude AGL < 0)
� � if (get_Altitude_AGL() < 0.0) {
� � � � �SGPropertyNode* node = fgGetNode("/sim/presets", true);
� � � � �globals->get_commands()->execute("old-reinit-dialog", node);
� � }
The above went in JSBSim.cxx because I couldn't figure out where to put it so
that all FDM's could have the same crash detector/handler.
