I am working on real-time radio and something like a radar. FG is really nice organized for this :-) At the moment I have not much program code because I am thinking about the first steps for realising this. I have enough ideas but the problem is that I have not much time for this. I have to solve one big problem: for the radio I need a PTT key (Joystick/Mouse or from the keyboard) and have no idea how to implement this. The nicest way would be to see the state of this key with a property which can the external radio-program read via a protocol (along with the position, ... for the radar).

It was later on extended and improved, but the first implementation was a Tower Simulator proof of concept. Erik - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Tower Simulator
The FlightGear session responsible for doing tower will do nothing more than display aircraft in the multiplayer session, flown by other players. FlightGear currently has no code for AI traffic like in FS2004, and most of the fanatic simmers do their flying online, with real people manning towers and airports. I think it could be possible to create a program that runs "fake" multiplayer aircraft (similar to AI traffic), but that's not part of a flight simulator, more of a traffic simulator. Towering on VATSIM or FlightGear multiplayer sessions (with the aid of the Google map) is very doable.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Tower Simulator
The issues as i see it is being able to simulate not one but many aircraft as seen from the tower. Tower sims also support various ground based vehicle such as fueling trucks , service vehicles etc ... At 12:16 PM 10/24/2006, you wrote: I think it's pretty possible.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Tower Simulator
I think it's pretty possible. You're gonna need extra software for the radar screens, but I think you can already connect FlightGear to a multiplayer session as an observer. Position yourself on the place where your tower is, and the outside view is pretty much what you need. For the radar screens, it differs on which network you're connecting to. There is lots of software available for either FS2004 multiplayer sessions, VATSIM, or IVAO. Not sure about ATC software for FlightGear sessions, but that might be one we could look into.
