'''Navigation Database''' | '''Navigation Database''' | ||
'''Scripting (Nasal)''' | |||
* There's a new "flightplan" extension function for the Nasal scripting interpreter, which makes it possible to retrieve a hash representation of the flight plan stored in the route manager. With these changes in place, it is possible to directly show a SVG image for each waypoint and connect them using OpenVG paths. | |||
'''NavCache''' | |||
James has pushed a large change to next, which adds a binary cache of most of the navigation data. The cache is stored in FG_HOME/navdata.cache, and rebuilt if the timestamps on any of the data files change (apt.dat, nav.data, fix.dat and so on). When the cache needs to be rebuilt, startup will take a bit longer than before, but when the cache is valid, startup is /much/ faster, especially for debug builds: | James has pushed a large change to next, which adds a binary cache of most of the navigation data.
