This may be of some interest. I've created an xml file
in the spirit of David Culp's AI traffic pattern
scenarios. The file will make a Cessna 172 takeoff
and fly a tight pattern from runway 28R at KSFO. The
first set of code goes into file:
$FG_ROOT/data/Data/AI/aircraft_demo.xml
and the next set into a file to be named
KSFO_TandG28R.xml in directory:
$FG_ROOT/data/Data/AI/FlightPlans/
Of course the following line in preferences.xml must
be uncommented.
<!-- scenario>aircraft_demo</scenario -->
I'm a novice with XML, so the calls I've created in
KSFO_TandG28R.xml may not be entirely right. However
it does seem to work. You can try taking off and
chasing the AI plane around the pattern. But
remember, as always, See and Avoid!
