Background

As of 02/2017, James merged the preview / splash-screen changes to next. This needs an update of Simgear, FlightGear and FGData. Next pieces James is planning to work on:

  • bright red warning message for unstable / night builds
  • showing startup hint text to replace the license / website info after N seconds (N = 4 or 5, probably)
* whatever bugs / suggestion people give me.

The Seneca and B1900d are the current examples for how this works, or try the UFO (or any other aircraft without its own splash screens) to see the new layout.

James expects tweaks to the text sizing, especially handling of long authors / description strings. Suggestions there welcome. [1]
