[Flightgear-devel] 0.9.10-pre3 bug(?)
When trying the replay feature using 0.9.10-pre3 on my WinXP computer, I noticed that the state of the aircraft through the replay remains the same as it was when the replay started. In other words, if I land with full flaps and airbreaks and such and then start the replay by pressing r , they will be deployed in the same state when I start the replay, regardless of what the state of aircraft was when actually flying. -- Frank Olaf Sem-Jacobsen --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

Frank Olaf, 1. sure I have, it was just a question of etiquette to ask you :-) 2. as you will see, FGTools is only a simple toolbox and mirrors my personal needs and my growing knowledge about FlightGears structures. It was never aimed to the public and I give it away to share with other users what I have and what works really good for me. I have absolutely no experience with Terrasync and I am very sure I will not in the future. So I am very sorry that this never will be a feature of FGTools.

[Flightgear-devel] Sun in the FG sky ahead a few hours?
Hi, I always set my time to noon. Assuming that the noon means local noon where I am in FG world, I don't think the sun is correctly placed. First I found it too low for noon, then checked two things: 1. The little clock showing Zulu (this is UTC right?) time is appropriately offset from my local-in-FG noon time. 2. Then I turned my plane facing the Sun stright on, and checked my heading from properties. It was around 240 or so. But from a Northern hemisphere location should it not be 180 at noon? This placement is more like mid-late afternoon. Is FG world aware of the seasons as well? I think it is, and if that is the case the lower declination than I expect may be partly attributed to it. But I can find no explanation why the Sun would not be close to heading 180 at noon. Thanks for listening.

Mojave, CA is home to Scaled Composites (Burt Rutan, Spaceship1), Orbital Dynamcics, The National Test Pilot School, Flight Research Inc. and several others. It is sort of the civilian counterpart to Edwards in many ways. One of the really distinctive featurs of Mojave is the rows of wind turbines on the ridges above town. Here's a picture I took the first time I was out there: http://www.flightgear.org/~curt/Photos/KMHV/Link/img_2704.html You can see the same thing from the satellite imagery. There are hundreds of these arranged in neat rows: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=qhl=enq=mojave,+call=35.050797,-118.27177spn=0.023679,0.0421t=k I don't think we could model all of these at their real density level, but it would be kind of cool to put in every other one, or maybe every 3rd or 4th one depending on what the graphics load turns out to be. Last time I checked we already had an animated wind turbine model with moving blades. If you found the two end points of a row in google maps (which does a pretty good job of giving you accurate lon/lat) then you could write some little bit of code to generate the intermediate points and spread a few towers along the row, and maybe even output the .stg lines directly. If you sent these to Jon Stockhill, he could find all the proper elevations for you and include them in the FG object database. Adding these wind turbines would really spiff up the area ... anyone interested in working on this? Thanks, Curt. If the graphics load is too much then perhaps the answer is more agressive use of LOD and simpler models.

[Flightgear-devel] Hotspots in the b1900d ?
Does anyone experience the same effect that the clickable hotspots don't work anymore in the b1900d ? I'm running Frederic's Windows binary on Win2k and fail to toggle or move _anything_. The condition lever even doesn't move using the m/M keys, _but_ the throttle moves with PageUp/PageDown In _very_ rare situations this doesn't happen and I didn't manage to determine any relation to my actions or the environment.

I said less bluish. Shadows should be grey, not blue/violet. But least of all should they be red. FlightGear is an OpenSource project. Among many other characteristics this implies that things go well if everyone contributes where his interest and skills match best. Now, not everyone is a perfectly skilled contributor right from the start and I'd say the FlightGear project doesn't want, must not want to miss those who still need to accomodate with the 'requirements' of such a sophisticated OpenSource project. In order improve their learning progress, constructive criticism is an essential means of support. As you, Melchior, are really great about finding _and_ fixing other people's programming bugs - and I'm sure the FlightGear project doesn't want to miss your contribution in this field - I have the impression that constructive criticism is not always your strong point. Quite often, too often the words you use in your criticism are well-suited to offend people.
