:: correct, but this is not specific to FDMs - all the autopilot/routing logic that people tend to reinvent in Nasal is significantly overlapping with existing, generic, C++ subsystems that are currently not yet exposed to Nasal. Thus, the main thing is using properties analogous to the actual C++ subsystems for interacting with the FDM/AP and RM components, which will ensure that a reusable and generic design is established, while preparing it for future updates. Otherwise, there will be more and more Nasal code doing what the C++ code is known to be very good at already.--[[User:Hooray|Hooray]] ([[User talk:Hooray|talk]]) 18:00, 29 October 2014 (UTC) | :: correct, but this is not specific to FDMs - all the autopilot/routing logic that people tend to reinvent in Nasal is significantly overlapping with existing, generic, C++ subsystems that are currently not yet exposed to Nasal.

: I've taken your code and refactored it to add stubs for separating things like FDM, guidance and autopilot - I've also added a self-test routine that I am hoping to extend over time - it should be self-contained, i.e. not rely on any aircraft/scenery. But it would seem to make sense to also move away from the static model_path and instead introduce a ModelMgr class so that multiple models per stage can be easily supported according to the missile.nas discussion above. This class could then also manage effects/animations and so on. You will find my changes in the "scripted-ai-submodels' branch.
