In other news, Omega went and made some nasty changes to the AP dialog, breaking parts of the Virtual Copilot, and possibly the FGFSCopilot interaction. I was hoping to do some other things while flying, but now that won't be possible.
Alright, first of all tell me why this is NASTY...
The main reason I changed the dialog is cuz there're problems when you use the generic dialog and have the AP master turned off on the panel.
Now second, the dialog controls the exact same properties the panel controls, thus it does the EXACT SAME THING as the panel. If it breaks something, then that means the panel would already have broken it. Btw, I tested it with the vCopilot and everything (except the sounds you removed) work fine.
The only advantages I see in an AP dialog is that you can type in values and you can have it open on screen regardless of your view, and the new dialog provides both and also a more realistic AP panel look. It's about time you start using the AP the way it's supposed to.

Hmm, that's weird.. For some reason, when hte dialogs are there, it doesn't let me type anything into the input fields... So well, I commented out the dials (temporarily). It works. Any one have any ideas on why the dials don't let me type anything in the input fields?
