The log time-stamper add-on will print time-stamps to the console and log, which can be useful when comparing timings of events with other resources.
Features
FlightGear prints times-stamps each on line of the console output and log, but only with elapsed time of the FlightGear session.
This add-on prints timestamps to the console at configurable intervals. It can print:
- Simulated UTC time
- Real local time
- Real UTC time (with some known issues)
Additionally the add-on prints changes in
- Simulation rate, how fast the simulation is running.
- Time warp, if the time of day is running at at a different speed than the simulation rate.
- If FlightGear is paused or unpaused.
- If the Time Setter add-on by Colin[1] is enabled or disabled. It synchronizes the simulated time with real time, optionally with a number of hours offset.
Timestamps are printed in ISO 8601 / RFC 3339 format, in essence YYYY-MM-DD"T"HH:MM:SS("Z"|("+"|"-")hh:mm:ss).
Exposed properties
There are some properties exposed that control the behavior of the add-on. These can be configured through the addon-config.xml file, or through properties in /addons/by-id/org.flightgear.addons.log-time-stamper/config/.
