Subject: Use black clear color only at high altitudes.
X-Git-Url: https://git.mxchange.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=104dc1170bd6de4208e34aafaf31922b5f5f01ef;p=flightgear.git

Use black clear color only at high altitudes.

Black clear color can cause visual glitches on low
altitudes, but a black space is much nicer, so just
switch at 300.000 ft.
