== Changes that are already on next ==
=== Record/replay ===
* Include multiplayer aircraft in recordings.
* Continuous recording to file without any loss of detail.
* Periodic generation of a recovery snapshot, allowing resumption after a flightgear crash.
See new '''File''' - '''Flight Recorder Control''' dialogue.
==== Details ====
* Continuous recording to file is uncompressed to simplify replay; e.g. 100MB for an hour's recording near EDDF.
* A recovery snapshot is actually a single-frame continuous recording, and will be called '''<aircraft-type>-recovery.fgtape'''. Load in the usual way using the '''Flight Recorder Control''' dialogue or on the command line with '''--load-tape=<aircraft-type>-recovery'''. Then do '''Ctrl-R''' to see replay dialogue and click on '''My Controls'''. I think that some aircraft may have no or limited support for '''My Controls''' though?
