It's always nice to have default values changeable, rather than hard-coded. So a property is the right choice. And preferences.xml is the place to initialize properties. And then, these values might have to be changed at runtime: Sound propagation also depends on the atmosphere, the terrain, etc. Probably nobody would ever bother, but having the possibility doesn't hurt either. > > JFTR: The bo105 sets these values since a while. :-P > > Well done, but what do you base the values on? Real life experience and guessing. That's not much worse than an unscientific calculation. If somebody doesn't like the values, just complain and I might change them. m. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
