Hi all, I'm trying to do use Flightgear to practice instrument flying and I want flightgear to start up with an overcast layer. I've been trying to have the layer at 800 feet MSL and 1500 feet thick. I realize I could set this in the GUI but would prefer to specify on the command line.
I'm running FG 1.9.1 and have tried all kinds of command lines without satisfactory results. All of these have no apparent effect: --ceiling=800:1500 --prop:/environment/clouds/layer/coverage=overcast \ --prop:/environment/clouds/layer/elevation-ft=800 \ --prop:/environment/clouds/layer/thickness-ft=1500 --prop:/environment/clouds/layer/type=overcast \ --prop:/environment/clouds/layer/elevation-ft=800 \ --prop:/environment/clouds/layer/thickness-ft=1500 I've also tried the last two options with "layer[0]" and "layer[1]" (really stabbing in the dark here) but with no effect. I even tried specifying a ceiling with "--metar" which I found from googling the topic but which seems to have been deprecated. The only command line parameter I've found so far that did anything with the clouds was "--enable-real-weather-fetch" ... however I don't necessarily want the real weather, I want to specify my own. Any help is greatly appreciated, I feel sad that I've spent the last hour trying to get this simple thing working without luck Thanks, Ben ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
