Huh - that's a huge value. With a filter-time that high, it will take approx one hour for the interpolated wind to match the given input. Maybe a rate-limiter helps here. The exponential filter has a relatively high rate of change in the beginning, dropping to zero in infinity while the rate limiter changes the output at a constant rate of change.

Are we fixing the right problem? I was observing mach 5 speed waves while the weather wind was changing. On Sun, Jan 22, 2012 at 8:18 AM, Torsten Dreyer wrote: > > Played around with it a bit.

[Flightgear-devel] [PATCH] fgdata chat message highlighting
Hi,
Sorry if this is not the right list for the patch.
The idea was to implement a small script to highlight chat messages in which
the multiplayer-callsign is mentioned. This should make multiplayer
communication with many pilots easier.
The message is highlighted in red.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] [PATCH] fgdata chat message highlighting
Hi,
Thank you, I searched for this function but didn't find it. I replaced the
'tolower' function with the string.lc calls in the patch.

Long live "Basic Weather" and "Advanced Weather" :-) Thanks Torsten. That looks great. BTW, if this change is merged into the 2.6.0 branch, we should also include commit a38820828c5343dbcb77d97a65597d736c845ff4, which removes a now-redundant reference to the local_weather_tiles menu item. I've also made the co-requisite change to The Manual (773db8825336521c42fd4d0edb22ca2d1bcc06ea) that should also be merged. -Stuart -- Try before you buy = See our experts in action!

Ah - thanks. I wasn't aware of that line of code. We should make sure, ThorstenR has backported that into his codebase when commiting a new version from him. I am hesitating from picking this into the release branch as one could argue if that was a bug fix. But if it's general consensus that this a an improvement that should make it into the release, we should do it. The change is releatively small but I'd feel better if ThorstenR tested it before it gets picked. Torsten -- Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
