FlightGear only supports one view position at a time. Multiple view positions (e.g. one screen for the tower view and a second screen for the plane) would complicate a "locked to cache" flag quite a lot...<ref>http://www.mail-archive.com/flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg28864.html</ref>. | |||
Aircraft can define their own views and so on. But only one view can be active at a time. So no matter how many windows and cameras you define in preferences.xml, they all are relative to the current view in FG (i.e. cockpit, tower...). <ref>http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?p=146136#p146136</ref> | |||
The cameras in a camera group don't need to render directly to the screen. They can render to a texture which can be used either in the scene, like in a video screen in the instrument panel, or for distortion correction in a projected or dome environment. <ref>http://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/mailman/message/19718339/</ref> | The cameras in a camera group don't need to render directly to the screen.
