There are more and more aircraft in CVS with two *-set.xml
files, where one is basically empty and only referring to
a second one. This is understandable in cases where actually
more than one FDM is used or very likely to be used in the
next time. But it's becoming a problem if this redundant
stuff is routinely added for no good reason. This makes the
output of --show-aircraft, the list in fgrun, or the output
of an --aircraft= shell completion script unusable, while it
has no real advantage.
I considered to strip all redundant *-set.xml files out in
--show-aircraft (everything that contains one of
yasim/jsbsim/uiuc/base) and to only show that with
--show-aircraft --verbose. But that wouldn't fix the fgrun
and shell problem, and not even those subtypes are used
consistently.
Or should we just watch the cancer and not do anything? :-}
m.
btw: also some livery *-set.xml files like the three 787{ANA,CO,FC}
should IMHO be merged, and livery handling be supported
at runtime, like it's done in the dhc6.
