=== Parking Positions command line string === | |||
In 2018.3, —parking-id is now an alias for —parkpos. This means that either of them may be used to specify a parking position, fixing a bug introduced a few years ago. | |||
=== JSBSIM update === | |||
The JSBSIM team synced their latest work to FlightGear: changes include: | |||
* Fixed the Calibrated Air Speed (CAS) computations for supersonic velocities | |||
* Fixed the Nlf (Normal load factor) sign | |||
* Nlf can now be specified as an initial condition via the property ic/targetNlf | |||
* Added blocking sockets to the input features | |||
* Added a property to piston engines to get the AFR (Air to Fuel Ratio) | |||
* Added conversion from m/s to ft/s | |||
* Restored the initial conditions for engines running (-1 means all engines) | |||
