The orientation data in the FOM (SGOrientationWGS84) are Quaternions ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternion]), and those are the i,j,k values. From memory, the orientation is relative to a earth-centered-frame, and there are functions in SimGear to convert to heading/pitch/roll in combination with the object's position. | |||

Richard's [[Emesary]] system would also probably work quite well with the HLA FOM to give us a way for models to communicate with other models.<ref> {{cite web | |||

For some Subsystems split off from the existing FlightGear source, it's fairly easy to create an executable with its own property tree<ref>https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/mailman/message/34632142/</ref> and have shared C++ code to map FOM objects to property values. However, this is an implementation detail - the whole point of HLA and the FOM is that it makes no assumptions about what Federates do with the data. | For some Subsystems split off from the existing FlightGear source, it's fairly easy to create an executable with its own property tree<ref>https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/mailman/message/34632142/</ref> and have shared C++ code to map FOM objects to property values.

Regarding weather, in a HLA/RTI context the way to do this would be to have a weather engine as an RTI Federate. This would run any required weather simulation, and pass (very) local weather conditions to each of the aircraft/tower/windsock in the simulation, plus publish position information on clouds for use by visualiation engines.<ref>{{cite web | |||

Stuart is cautiously optimistic that he may be able to provide the start of a HLA implementation quite soon, as one of the blocking factors may be resolved soon.<ref>{{cite web | |||

Currently, there is some very old HLA support in SimGear. This is very out of date and should be ignored. | Currently, there is some very old HLA support in SimGear. This is very out of date and should be ignored. | ||
