Re: [Flightgear-users] Re: the "nimitz_demo" HOW??

Okay, I can now see the Nimitz!  I had to choose the Hunter (carrier capable) aircraft before it would show.  The question I now have is: Why?  I know, I know, you can't land a T38 on a carrier, so why should it show.  But that's not the point, I specified that it be there, it should be there regardless of the type of AC I've chosen. 

I guess the next question is:  Where is it defined that the carrier show when flying a specific AC?  A quick cursory examination of the Hunter xml file showed nothing specific to the Nimitz Demo, nor does the Nimitz demo specify a specific craft,  so where is it?  I mean, maybe I want to TRY and land a C172 on the carrier (seems more than possible to me), or even a T38 (baracade?) ... or the Concorde even.... just for giggles :-))

Can you specify the carrier as your "airport" and do cat launches?

So, are the other AI's AC dependent?  Sailboat; T-Storm; Refueling...?

Thanks for the help!

Well, ai-traffic is enabled just as in your example.  If the nimitz is
there, it must be that new stealth carrier ;-/ cause I don't see it in
the bay or off shore.  Where exactly should I look for it.

Very strange.
      
The uss-nimitz at the default scenery should be right of the KSFO (the
default
airport when starting fgfs in the default scenery).

Take a look:

This is an extract of my preferences.xml file:

<ai-traffic>
   <enabled type="bool">false</enabled>
   <level type="int">1</level>
  </ai-traffic>

  <traffic-manager>
     <enabled type="bool">false</enabled>
  </traffic-manager>

  <ai>
   <enabled type="bool">true</enabled>
   <scenario>nimitz_demo</scenario>
   <!-- <scenario>aircraft_demo</scenario> -->
  </ai>

Nimitz works here. Who needs a hook?

You should be able to see the carrier while at the end of 28R at ksfo.
