    No, 5 minutes before launch it seems to be gone, but its hard to see if it was properly retracted or not. One hour before launch, people were still walking below the pad and after the launch, the stream cut directly after many people looked down into the trench.... And the concrete of the pad...

    I'd say they forgot stowing it before launch....

    There are sadly no images yet, that show the state of the rails below the pad, on which the structure moved. The structure can likely be easily replaced. I also can't tell how the structure can even fall into the pit, unless it was not fully retracted into its storage location.

    Still unbelievable... I once bought my first DCS version in the local consumer electronics store, and it contained only the Ka-50 and the Caucasus map.... long before DCS:World existed.

    Well, to help you a bit: 1. You must compensate in DCS, that you have no feeling of acceleration by your sense of balance. It is not much easier than flying a real helicopter. 2. If you are not willed to practice to the point that you can compensate that lack of sensory feedback, yeah, its...

    Its always hard to control a helicopter without feedback from your Adaptive Stabilization System. I also have a helicopter module (Mi-8, not sure if the original DCS Ka-50 still works), but they took really a lot of practice to fly the very basic maneuvers right. Aircraft are more my territory...

    Hopefully they improved the mixture ratio in the following years. 😁

    How do you do that, is it a Null object in Blender? Is it possible to export the axes in a text file? (or even a C++ header file?!)

    Everything can be shady today. Especially smaller open-source projects. The really shady pages are too crude, there you can bet that malware is involved. But it doesn't even try hard to hide there.

    I would recommend Syria over Persian Gulf, even if it is a better map for carrier operations, the quality of the Syria Map is much better. (Of course, if you prefer naval operations and don't mind that Dubai is the only interesting sight, the Persian Gulf Map is maybe the better choice) Also...

    ExtMFD should contain example source code on how to do this.

    Yes, you would need to manually redraw it then. The events only work in VC mode.

    Discussion Trying to render a functional VC (starting small)

    vtxofs is the real culprit, the mark (only) at the i is just misleading you. You just have a type issue with the result of the addition: int + double results in a double. And what is the 1.5th element of an array? If not undefined? Either make vtxofs an int or make a type cast in each line...

    I had a case when WIndows Defender didn't catch it, because I caught a bad file from an official download mirror. Since then, I take security a bit more serious at home, even though the financial damage was insignificant compared to the damage to my pride.

    Question (proper) Variables initialization

    AFAIR not, it has a default constructor that does that.

    Question (proper) Variables initialization

    Exactly, thats what an undefined initial state looks like. Much worse, if you have differential equations somewhere near them....

    Question (proper) Variables initialization

    You can not use it. Its not mandatory. Of course, without child classes, its like private. But you can also plan to use it later for extending on your vessel class and thus, use protected for providing safe seams that an extended version of your vessel could build on, without changing the original.

    Question (proper) Variables initialization

    These control the visibility of class and instance variables and methods: "public:" : Every declaration following it is visible to code inside and outside the class. "protected:" : Every declaration following it is only visible to this class or classes derived from it. "private:" : Every...
