Suggestion for payload editor

[Giorgio]

Dan,

basically the three solutions proposed are:

1) a parameter in the more_option.cfg
2) a parameter in the specific payload model
3) an analysis of the incompatibilities of each specific aircraft


The #3 seems the less practical to me. AT THE MOMENT I know of two planes with serious problems, the Altitude Concorde SU3 and the
Lago MadDog. Well, make it two and an half, with the 737 PMDG. Maybe it would be possible to "cure" these aircrafts perfectly with a fine-
tuned payload model, but a) I think it would be very hard (particularly for the Concorde) and b) what about future add-on planes?

The #1 is a good idea. The drawback I see is that it would be a "global" setting for ALL aircrafts, while maybe I own only one plane with
this problem. Every time I flight , I should remember to switch the file "on" or "off".

The #2 seems better to me: a specific parameter for the payload model of the specific parameter of the plane. But I understand your
objection about compatibility of the previous models.

So I have thought about solution #4: a checkbox in the payload window, switchable "on" or "off" each time we load an aircraft, not linked
to the INI file. Obviously it should be "off" by default and there should be a BIG warning "Advanced Users Only! Are you really sure you
want to disable the payload editor?" when it is activated. This way the existant models could be left as they are and it would be
impossible to make a "wrong" model, and at the same time the option could be activated or not for each plane.

Am I ranting? It's 11 pm and I need sleep.... I should not write so much English at this time!
