Re: [Flightgear-devel] Tower view configuration

From: Drew [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks, I'll try that, but I don't understand your description. The view origin is fixed in space as it is. Since the field of view is only 8 degrees horizontally, I figured the .9 degrees would shift the target upwards by about 1/6 the height of the image.

You could write a nasal script that updates target-y-offset-m based on the aircraft's distance from the tower. You can get the tower and ac position from the property tree, nasal does trig, and that's all you need. Josh I'll look into that. Thanks!

From: Drew [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hey All, I'm trying to configure a tower view in FlightGear that is offset in pitch such that the airplane appears above the center of the screen, but still tracks the position of the aircraft. I can't figure out how this is done, as the 'offset-pitch-deg'
