  1. Apply the following patch:
    Code: Select all
    diff --git a/Aircraft/c172p/c172p-set.xml b/Aircraft/c172p/c172p-set.xml
    index 9494f76..644ad32 100644
    --- a/Aircraft/c172p/c172p-set.xml

    +   </mouse>
    +  </mice>
      </input>
     
     </PropertyList>
  2. Start FlightGear with the c172p
  3. Press the tab key twice. You should see the following printed to the console:
    Code: Select all
    Mouse mode 2 out of range
  4. Press your left mouse button once
  5. Watch how fgfs segfaults immediately

Btw, it should work with any aircraft :)

Due to exams and other stuff this week, I don't really want to have to recompile FG again, so I hoped this would be easy enough for a core dev to reproduce ;)
