Well, it looks like "weeks or months" was a bit too pessimistic. :-) Last week I finished a first draft of the new Traffic Manager code, which has been running succesfully for about a day without crashing. The code is not yet ready for CVS yet, though. The following issues need to be addressed: - The dynamic assignment of flights to aircraft needs to be optimized. - The I need to investigate the possibilities of backward compatibility - I'm considering going back to XML formatted files in favour of the current format - The code needs clean-up. http://durktalsma.xs4all.nl/FlightGear/FlightGear-1.0.0-new-traffic-manager.tar.gz http://durktalsma.xs4all.nl/FlightGear/new-traffic-data.zip However, for those people interested in creating traffic code, I decided to roll up a snapshot of the current traffic configuration file. Should I switch to xml, it should probably be a matter of writing a simple converter to get the data into xml format. For the adventurous, I've also posted a snapshot of the current code (source only). Feedback is appreciated.
