Hi all,
I'm having trouble with the autopilot using a couple of days old CVS
version on Windows XP . I am attempting to follow the recently posted
tutorial for VFR flight, but I am unable to operate the autopilot
correctly. enabling the autopilot with ctrl+h does not work, and when
clicking the AP button and then HDG on the auto pilot control in the
Cessna the plane holds the heading, but is also starts adjusting
altitude or descent rate. Also, changing autopilot settings from the
menu does not seem to have any effect on holding the heading.
I suspect I must be doing something wrong, so if someone could point in
the correct direction I would be grateful.
Another point is that I am not always able to contact the tower when
pressing the ' key, even though I am on the correct radiofrequency.
Similarly, it does not always respond to key presses like toggling
throttle with page up/page down, or reset timewarp when accidentally
engaged. This was also a problem when using the regular 0.9.8 release.
And as long as I'm writing, whenever I try to run Atlas 0.3 in
conjunction with flightgear Atlas simply stops responding after less
than a minute running. I don't recall having problems with this earlier
with previous releases of Atlas. my graphics card is not
top-of-the-line, but I am able to run flightgear a decent frame rates at
KSFO 1024x768, but it might still perhaps be the cause of the problem?
humm, this was a long list of more or less well-defined problems. I hope
someone has the time to sort some of this out.
