I've just updated the Seahawk in preparation for the release, and noticed a couple of thing: 1. Nav-lights seem to be broken across MP. I haven't been able to fix it, but I note that in multiplaymgr.cxx it's a "float", but everywhere else it's a "bool". I don't know if this is the cause, but anyway I've put a workaround into the Seahawk. 2. I still have stepping clouds here on start-up or when changing weather scenarios. The fix is trivial - I've worked with Tim Moore on a patch. Finally, I still get a crash if FG runs long enough. It _seems_ as if this can be avoided if I disable Traffic Manager, but it might just be hastening the inevitable end.
