Re: [Flightgear-devel] How can I make a flight simulator like FGFS?

[Josh D. <jos...@ou...>]

Creating nasal, something which helps and contributes to this project is hardly the same as asking this project on how to create a competing one. Apples and oranges, my friend.

Look, I'm passionate about this project and the truth is we need more developers especially as commercial Sims continue to advance. Not fragmented efforts which offer no gain other than "I want mine".

Kind Regards,

Josh, I get what you're saying, and I wouldn't have answered his questions simply because I can do better things in the time; but I think, if you are responding, you should not be doing it like this. Why ? Nasal wouldn't exist if someone hadn't felt like creating his own programming language. Just an example !

Also, David Culp (whi has worked on FlightGear before) has created a
small proof of concept Flight Simulator using JSBSim.

You can find the code here:
https://github.com/dpculp/qtjsbsim

It might be worth skimming through the code.
