Extend pilots API fields #12
Description
The pilot API adds three new fields but they are not usefully implemented.
{ "aerodrome": false, "tag_alt": "A043", "tag_gs": "0" }
This test is connected at YHOT 4255 MSL. The aerodrome tag should show YHOT while tag_alt and tag_gs are not really useful by themselves.
Create a new set of tags and expand on current tags.
tag_alt
Formatted altitude string handling transition level changes. Only displayed when airborne so that we can fix the shitty inputs from some VATSIMers so that the following logic works.
alt = string/100; // 33000 -> 330, 1000 -> 10, 340 -> 3.4
if(alt <= 5){
alt = alt * 100;
}25,000 ft = F250
10,000 ft = A100
9,500 ft = A095
Values: False, String
tag_gs
gs / 10 to match vatSys outputs.
Values: String
on_aerodrome
Values: False, or the ICAO code of the aerodrome polygon.
aerodrome_elevation
Values: False, or the on_aerodrome elevation AMSL.
phase
A map of flight phases.
- Boarding
- Departing
- Enroute
- Arriving
- Disembarking
Boarding
on_aerodrome == flight_plan.departure
gs == 0
Departing
on_aerodrome == flight_plan.departure
gs > 0
altitude == aerodrome_elevation +/- 100
Enroute
on_aerodrome == false
gs > 0
Arriving
on_aerodrome == flight_plan.arrival
gs > 0
Disembarking
on_aerodrome == flight_plan.arrival
gs == 0
