Hi, I wonder if anyone alse has noticd that the startup location on runways with a displaced threshold differs depending on whether the custom scenery <ICAO>.threshold.xml file or apt.dat is used?
Here is runway 9 at EDDR with the options --airport=EDDR --runway=09: http://www.gidenstam.org/FlightGear/misc/tmp/startup_location_problem.jpg To the left /sim/paths/use-custom-scenery-data is false and to the right /sim/paths/use-custom-scenery-data is true. I have seen this on other airports too. Since the code that positions the aircraft on the runway is the same in both cases it appears that the data loaded into the internal DB differs depending on the source. I don't know if it is the data in the .thres.xml file that is bad or if it is a bug in the loader. (I guess it can be either depending on how one defines the meaning intended interpretation of the XML data :) Cheers, Anders -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anders Gidenstam WWW: http://www.gidenstam.org/FlightGear/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
