I never noticed a comm console in OpenRadar - and I've used it frequently in earlier days. Therefore I'm quite surprised .... I'll have to have a closer look these days, maybe this helps reminding the idea behind this comm console you mention. > http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=10221 > seems more interested in using Atlas as the base... OpenRadar has been designed with EUROCONTROL (the European air traffic control / safety organization) user interface standards for real life radar consoles in mind. Therefore it's a lot different from the so-called radar consoles people are familiar with in FlightGear land. Maybe *too* different .... :-/ > http://wiki.flightgear.org/index.php/Stand_Alone_ATC_Control_Development > likewise seems to again favor Atlas... Well, I don't know what to say about that .... > But are there other places where I can read more specifically > about this java OpenRadar setup, running, operations? No, not much. The most elaborate reference so far is the source code. I know what Ralf was having in mind because we've been talking a lot about OpenRadar (which even didn't have a name until shortly before development stopped), therefore I should be able to answer questions. If you think it's worth doing so, I'd put it into a Gitorious project alongside simgear and all the other stuff, hoping that people drop a patch every now and then. One of the various nice features in OpenRadar is its abstraction layer for switching data source interfaces. Somone built a pure Java HLA compilant interface for OpenRadar, but that's never been integrated into the main source tree.
