In my experience, the "glideslope" initialization feature has never worked. Not even once. I've tried it maybe 50 times on 10 occasions over the past two years. I tried it again just now. Details vary: *) If I specify distance and slope, a negative absolute altitude is one of the common results, *) If I specify altitude and slope, a wildly incorrect position is one of the common results. *) If I try it more than once, without exiting and restarting fgfs, NaN position with NaN altitude is one of the common results. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
