#FLIGHTGEAR FLIGHT PLANNER CODE#

The new code will automatically adjust the final flightplan based upon the selected choices. The runways, SID and STAR (and so on) will be selected in the GUI after loading the flightplan, based on weather observations, ATC, etc, etc. The likely scenario you're describing is that the saved XML FP will specify the enroute points and the departure and arrival waypoint. the new format doesn't have conditional structures, that would be very complex. It's never been possible to use an AIFlightplan this way, and I can't imagine a good reason to do so - it doesn't model any real-world flight plan that I'm aware of. gear/flap/crossing-alt data is nothing to do with flight-planning - I suspect you are talking about 'AI flightplans' which are a separate system, completely unrelated the route-manager. cruise speed is only used for the estimated time enroute, doesn't affect the AP/GPS at all, for the moment The Route-Manager/GPS code will pass the waypoint heading to the AP altitude-hold when passing a waypoint, *if* the waypoint has an altitude set - which due to the above point, they all do! (This is a generic behaviour, for compatibility with 1.9.x an aircraft designer can override it, and hopefully complex aircraft like the 777 and 787 will do exactly that, as they are updated) This was me trying to be helpful, but in hindsight I've decided that's a Bad Idea, and will change it in CVS. if a waypoint in the XML has no altitude set, it is (in 2.0.0) assigned the cruise altitude. the XML file specifies a cruise altitude, and each waypoint can optionally specify its own altitude using XXXXX loading from the command line doesn't work, unfortunately Lots of answers, hopefully: (most of them can be summarised as 'this code isn't finished') zakalawe Posts: 1258 Joined: Sat 4:48 pm Location: Edinburgh, Scotland Callsign: G-ZKLW Version: next OS: Mac

#FLIGHTGEAR FLIGHT PLANNER SIMULATOR#

The goal of the FlightGear project is to create a sophisticated and open flight simulator framework for use in research or academic environments, pilot training, as an industry engineering tool, for DIY-ers to pursue their favorite interesting flight simulation idea, and last but certainly not least as a fun, realistic, and challenging desktop. Not an ideal situation, but unfortunately the waypoints code has changed so much to support procedures, it's just how things have ended up. FlightGear is a free open-source flight simulator. The problem is, it will change when I add the SID/STAR/airways code to CVS (during May, it looks like - April has gotten busy) - hence me not documenting it or spending much time on it - I don't want people to start relying on the current format. It should be very obvious, even if you know almost no XML. The current syntax (in 2.0.0 and CVS for the moment) is shown here: (you might need to 'view source' in your browser, or save and open in a text editor) The CVS code has a 'Save' button as well as a 'Load' button, the idea being you'd create the route in the route manager, and then save it to give to other people. Keeping the ability to read the old plain text format is a good idea, I'll do that.
