documentation
- meaning of various flags?
gui issues
There's currently: OK and Clear/End
I ASSUME, that it would be more intuitive for most people to simply replace these two buttons with a single [APPLY] button and implicitly do CLEAR/END + OK that way. To stop the system, another item could be added to the scenario combo box saying "TERMINATE" or "DISABLED".
refactoring
- there's some overlapping stuff in tile codes and tile names, e.g. "Altocumulus sky" vs. "altocumulus_sky", this could be unified, so that a single hash could be used.
old code
- many of the CHECKS in compat_layer.nas are now obsolete (1==0)
