An excellent question. Understanding program execution in a large program such as FlightGear can be daunting. My day job involves participation in the development of another large simulation program used to model the new NASA launch vehicles. I recently used Doxygen to allow code to be perused using the HTML files that Doxygen creates - a really valuable tool for gaining insight into a large codebase. I thought Doxygen had been used for FlightGear, but I think it's only used for SimGear. I do know that you can look under the FDM subdirectory to see the classes that call the flight models. For JSBSim, for instance, see JSBSim.cxx. I don't believe there is a document that explains the basic - Initialization - Cyclic execution - Shutdown for FlightGear, but there *should* be! :-) Jon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
