We must only, all together decide which name and where (/sim/ ??)
With it it the designer can control the model aircraft conditions (property) which are necessary according to the user wishes. With FDM Yasim Aircraft, it can be done easily solve with Nasal script With FDM Jsbsim Aircraft that switch may activate any property which are necessary to have the aircraft in hot configuration. For instance looking at one of my model to have the right flying conditions, i need: Canopy => Down Wing-folds => Off Wing-incidence => Down Electric-power => On Cut-off => Off Engine=> running Throttle => 0.6 Landing-gear => Up All these <property> could be switched according to that Cold/Hot <property> Cheers -- Gérard http://perso.orange.fr/GRTux/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
