I have read the original report, and remember that the moment the autopilot seemed to stop working was one where I had committed a bunch of AI related changes, which actually have nothing to do with the autopilot. The changes in this particular commit were affecting the core of FlightGear a bit more than usual, because I modified the initialization procedure of the TrafficManager system, which required code changes in Main/fg_init.cxx. There is a possibility that something has gone wrong here; either a) the new initialization procedure has a memory error that corrupts the initialization of the autopilot; or b) the new initialization procedure introduces a timing error, so that parts of the autopilot are never initialized. Normally, I would have run a few tests in order to falsify my hypotheses, but as I'm currently away from home, I can't do that. If anybody wants to look into this, please do so. Otherwise, it has to wait until after I get back home, I'm afraid. Cheers, Durk However, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
