[Flightgear-devel] YASim and dedicated fuel tanks

2009-12-07 Thread Gary Neely
When employing YASim, is it possible to have a given engine draw from a specific tank? I've noticed that by default the engines draw evenly from tanks marked as 'selected', rather like a cross-feed situation. I'd like to simulate situations where engines draw from dedicated tanks when

Im afraid I cant help here , but Ive wanted the same option ,I just never looked too deeply at the code. It would be nice too , to have a fuel valve to control and shutoff fuel (pressure ?) even with fuel in the tanksl. I'll do some reading tonight and see what I can discover . Cheers

I patched terrasync to make it more usable, more like a proper daemon -- writes pid to file -- normally does not exit until signalled -- uses blocking and non-blocking I/O as appropriate. http://gitorious.org/~jsd/fg/sport-model/commits/sport Usage example: pid=$(cat $pidfile 2/dev/null) if

Re: [Flightgear-devel] YASim and dedicated fuel tanks

2009-12-07 Thread Gary Neely
After studying Melchior and Vivian's aircraft I was able to put together a crude but functional version of what I was hoping to do. Essentially it's just a simple re-write of fuel.nas that maps engine[n] to tank[n] for purposes of drawing fuel. This allows me to set up dedicated tanks and/or small
