Subject: George PATTERSON:
X-Git-Url: https://git.mxchange.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1d15a9272b962f32c07f22f9ee56d014fffa2930;p=flightgear.git

George PATTERSON:

"Flightgear.py
- Added the procedures view_next and view_prev

demo.py
- altered the wait five seconds to the new property path and allowed for
the script to be started after five seconds of simulation file
(/sim/time/elapsed-sec).
- the section of code was changed to a pythonism as python does not
support do-while loops, instead you break out of a continuous loop.
- Commented out the fg.wait_for_prop_eq() method as I haven't rewritten
that part of the code yet. Not sure of the best way to do that. Those
lines may not be necessary any more."


mf: removed trailing spaces; I updated the pyc, too, but I really think
    it shouldn't be in CVS at all.(?)
