The plan was to first commit the code changes and to update the
README.xmlparticles file, and then to fix all aircraft as quickly
as possible (same day and maybe next day -- there are quite a lot
of particle users already). Of course, I won't be sad if one or
the other developer steps in and announces that he'll do the
changes himself. :-)
I noticed that the XML file conversion can take longer than I
had hoped. Here's just one example:
<rotspeed>
<minx>5</minx>
<miny>5</miny>
[...]
minx/miny?! This is wrong, and should have been (and should still
be): <x-min-deg-sec> etc. So this code doesn't work at all and
0 is used as a default value for all rotation. Here I have to
let it broken and to add a note. Or in the same file:
<gravity>enable</gravity>
<wind>enable</wind>
This should have been "enabled" or "disabled", not "enable".
So, for the old code this was turned off, but the developer
apparently wanted it on. If I change this to "true", then the
result looks broken. But I can't just write "false" either,
as this changes the author's intent. Sigh.
BTW: I'll have to add some units as well: <speed> is what?
m/s?
m.
