Re: [Flightgear-devel] Thesis Advice
Hi! I'm the one who asked the same question. Actually I have been offered a job what I accepted, so I won't have enough time for writing my thesis on these topics (I have an almost completed thesis which I'm going to finish). So, choose the topic you like. I won't have any objections. After I have finished my thesis (which is probably in June), I think I will come back and help you all out a bit :) Szabi On 08/12/05, bass pumped [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, I'm trawling for topics to do my masters thesis on.

The money will be in automating air transport, beginning with replacing the current ATC system with a Freeflight type of system where all the airplanes deconflict themselves and set up their own arrival spacing. This is already being researched, but the more the merrier. This will allow airplanes to fly their most efficient paths, which saves lots of fuel, and also takes the people out of the ATC system, which will save a bundle. Once that is in place then the automated (pilotless) airplane comes next. Some hurdles are taxiing and weather avoidance.

The ATC in FlightGear is an area that is currently still under active development. Feel free to browse through the source code subdirectories that make up the most significant bits and pieces (src/ATC src/AIModel src/Traffic, and to some degree src/Airports (look for the files simple.cxx and simple.hxx). If you feel like working in this area, you're more than welcome, but please send us a brief outline of your ideas so we can check how well it fits with our ongoing plans. One potential code improvement that might really come in handy in future AI traffic is is a set of algorithms that run across multiple frames. Right now, there is still a limited set of potentially CPU/IO intensive more or less AI related functions that run within one frame, and might disrupt the flow of the simulator. Two examples that come to mind are: 1) The FGGroundNetwork::trace() algorithm (see Airports/simple.cxx) 2) The SimGear model loaders. Having versions of these functions that distribute the calculations across multiple frames might be very handy in the long run.

Hi Martin, if the development of FGSD goes on this will become a *great* tool for FlightGear as it aimes into the right direction. It is the only tool I know for making terrain adjustments at the moment and I did (Version 0.3.1) some test-work with it (Bremen, Saba island) but found it very time-consuming to improve larger areas (and I sometimes really fight with the program). And it is much easier and faster at the moment to place objects by hand assisted by a simple Pascal program I made for me. But the development of FGSD will go on, as I hope, and this program will then be a great help and tool for user development. ... You can add objects with FGSD, and then make fg reload the tiles with F2 key (if I remember well) to check the change.

First you have to calculate the tile-number via a separate Perl script (Lat/Lon - tilenumber), then you have to get the right elevation of that place, then you have to think about the angle you want to place the object into the world, then you have to create the *.stg file and write the things into it (or add them). All without any visual control and without the possibility to place a complete set of normally single objects into the scenery at one time. I am inspired by the FLY! object editor and as this always has been created for another (old) flightsim it might collide with what you have to do for your students work, but anyway I want to describe how it works in FLY: You fire the sim, fly/go to the place where you want to put your object/set of objects, press a key-combination. Then you see the scenery from above (bird-view) with a cross-marker (it aims to the point where the object is placed if you want to do so). You can go nearer of farer, to all directions (and even angles) to view the scenery. Then you select an object from a menue (grafical view) and place it into the scenery. You can now move it to the place you want to have it, select the height if other than ground (ie an object you want to place into the air or onto an already existing object), then you may safe your work. (In FLY! it is even more comfortable as you can select *every* object already placed in the scenery, move, scale and put it together, but I think this might a little bit too complicated for a several months work :-) ) When the object is safed, your code should make all calculations, changes or creations of new files - and if it is possible, make an initialisation of the scenery if you go out of the editing mode into normal flight mode, so that the new object is placed in the virtual world and can be seen. An add-on could be a little program outside of FlightGear where you can place several single objects into a fixed set which can be placed into the scenery by your new object-edit-code as described above. (This might be a collection of houses, trees, cars, etc to build some sort of a small generic village, or all other sort of small sceneries (small harbour, power plant, etc) which you want to place more than once into FlightGear. Ok, this was just my thought what could be done by you if interested.
