[Flightgear-devel] Setting OBS on command line/.fgfsrc

I am using FG cvs and have recently noticed that commands such as: fgfs --prop:/instrumentation/nav/radials/selected-deg=63 no longer have any effect. --prop:/instrumentation/nav/frequencies/selected-mhz=108.90 works fine. Any ideas? Alasdair

LCD is essentially a memory mapped array. Each element is addressed by row and column, so in effect it can also be visualised as a raster display. To draw a vector on such a display you have to calculate which row/column elements need to be illuminated. With a vector display the hardware had a

Hi Toshi, The latest web page for downloading aircraft should reference the Aircraft-2.0.0/ directory argh! and I see that it does not. That's a stupid mistake on my part. What a mess. Ok, it is now fixed so the links should point in the correct place. Thank you for reporting this and
