[Flightgear-devel] LiveCD for FGFS - suggestion

2003-12-20 Thread Alex Perry
For those people who enjoy this kind of challenge (I don't have time): If someone has (or will have) a script for making a Knoppix style CD of FGFS, I think the capability is directly relevant for teaching/instructional use. The CD, when starting FGFS, might load a default configuration and then

Would it not make sense to determine a visible range attribute automatically based on size? These issues may already be addressed by some LOD systems anyway. Any LOD people out there? I do agree that certain custom objects should have user defined priorities. I can't see a computer
