}}</ref> More recently, he has got an external HLA federate to be displayed in FlightGear. The implementation right now is very basic: a [[KC-135]] circling above [[LOWI]] at 10 kt and 500 ft. But it's enough to build on. | }}</ref> More recently, he has got an external HLA federate to be displayed in FlightGear.

The work that Stuart is doing on HLA will hopefully allow scripted [[Nasal]] code to be run in a separate thread from the [[FDM]] and display so [[How the Nasal GC works|Nasal GC]] (Garbage Collection) no longer can impact framerates. It would also allow for writing a weather simulation completely external to FlightGear, which would be quite neat. | The work that Stuart is doing on HLA will hopefully allow scripted [[Nasal]] code to be run in a separate thread from the [[FDM]] and display so [[How the Nasal GC works|Nasal GC]] (Garbage Collection/memory management) no longer can impact framerates.
