What I meant is the property should be named differently than it currently is, if it represents the deflection in degree units. I really don't know what the units for that value are supposed to be, but you are using them in your animation as if they are degrees.

Why this is not needed for the localizer, I have no idea, but there you have it.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] stumped by animations again
Hi Josh, These entries in your example... instrumentation/nav[0]/gs-needle-deflection 1 ...assume that your gs-needle-deflection property is in degrees. Maybe that property needs to be renamed with a -deg suffix. You used min and max instead of min-deg and max-deg when configuring a rotation, but it doesn't seem like that should be a problem. I'm wondering a bit about the accuracy of the data being written to the property, especially when close in. Note that there are min-deg, max-deg, min-m, max-m and in the case of non unit 0.0 to 1.0 measures (e.g. in texture translation) then min, max.

[Flightgear-devel] stumped by animations again
OK, I can't figure this one out. The object VertNeedle behaves as I would expect, swinging through a 40deg arc, but the object HorizNeedle spins clear around in a circle several times as I roll past the ILS transmitter. What am I missing? These animations look the same to me. There will be an update posted soon, so anyone who wants to see this will be able too. I'm not sure when Melchior will be able to get it into CVS though, I believe he is away on vacation.
