Well, yes. Maybe use binary search for that. But that's still a waste of cycles if you really need the terrain altitude at some coordinates right away. I wouldn't oppose to an implementation for that, but I wonder if/when you actually ever need that. To measure an object altitude? What would be nice is an interface for intersections along a given vector other than straight down. Then one could ask for visibility in a particular direction or open/closed doors etc. m. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
