* flaps are in wrong position and can't be triggered.

* no cockpit light at night visible
* pilot needs a shoulder patch.
* no pilot and co pilot visible
* engine turbines do not rotate (is it useful ?)
* engine turbines do not rotate
* nozzle do not change shape when changing thrust (to be checked in the flight man)
* strobe and landing lights are available and bound to the right properties, but the properties are not triggered by any key stroke.
* nozzle do not change shape when changing thrust


3d Cockpit:


* no cockpit light at night available
TDL Cockpit and systems:
* rudder/stick control is available but it is not animated
* internal/external lighting panel.
** Note: The stick in the F-16 doesn't move at all because it is driven by the pressure pushed on the stick, not the movement itself. So this is NOT an error.  
* FMD's buttons pick animation. Define a logic in the FMD interactivity ?
* switches and leverls available but can't be triggered with the mouse
* ICP better texture. buttons pick animation. Define a logic in the ICP interactivity ?
* no cockpit instruments available
* HUD modes:
* cockpit is only barely textured
** A/A mode
* no pilot present in 3d cockpit
** Basical nav mode (those could be a first step in order to provide usability in short term)


General:


* engine sound in cockpit does not differ from outside engine sound
Sounds:
* engines can't be turned off
* hud can't be turned off

Development status/Issues/Todo

Issues to be fixed shortly:

  • The first time the user change the view (ie. by hiting "v") there is a 10 seconds pause. This may be due to the liveries.


TDL FDM:

  • Main U/C is above ground.
  • Vibration when accelerating on the runway for takeof.


TDL Outside

  • flaps are in wrong position and can't be triggered.
    • that's because the f16 is flight computer controlled, so this is correct and NOT an error. (this to be moved in flight documentation)
  • pilot needs a shoulder patch.
  • engine turbines do not rotate (is it useful ?)
  • nozzle do not change shape when changing thrust (to be checked in the flight man)


TDL Cockpit and systems:

  • internal/external lighting panel.
  • FMD's buttons pick animation. Define a logic in the FMD interactivity ?
  • ICP better texture. buttons pick animation. Define a logic in the ICP interactivity ?
  • HUD modes:
    • A/A mode
    • Basical nav mode (those could be a first step in order to provide usability in short term)
