Aeronautics: touchdown

Aircraft Warning System 1.0.6 — Changelog

Landing system

• Better touchdown detection (approach latch + stable ground)
• Landing rate, touchdown VS, touchdown HS
• Flare detection (phase FLARE)
• Bounce detection + HUD count
• Go-around detection
• Landing summary line after a stable touchdown (LANDING VS … HS … SOFT/FIRM/HARD)

Sensor & false warnings

• Sensor stays armed in flight after place (ships / sub-levels)
• No GPWS on foot after landing / standing next to the block
• Radio alt doesn’t pierce while parked on the ground
• Sable sub-level flag debounced (fewer false “I’m on a ship” cases)
• K keybind removed — config only via right-click Aircraft Sensor

GPWS behavior (research-based)

• Mode 1: SINK RATE → escalate to PULL UP
• Mode 2: TERRAIN caution → sustained → PULL UP
• Stall repeats while stalled; windshear removed
• Boeing: longer PULL UP hold; Airbus/Boeing pitch differs until custom packs

Ponder / other

• Create Ponder scenes for the sensor
• Multi-point terrain scan, config scan radius / interval
• Takeoff callouts available (placeholders until you replace files)

Sound pack instructions

Where files live

Inside the jar (or source):

assets/aircraft_warning_system/sounds/
  generic/     ← default pack
  airbus/      ← plane type Airbus
  boeing/      ← plane type Boeing
  callout/     ← shared fallback altitudes
  gpws/        ← shared fallback GPWS
  takeoff/     ← shared fallback takeoff

Each manufacturer pack mirrors:

airbus/
  callout/   10.ogg … 2500.ogg, minimums, approaching_minimums, retard, touchdown
  gpws/      stall, terrain, pull_up, sink_rate, too_low_terrain, too_low_gear,
             too_low_flaps, dont_sink, glideslope, bank_angle, overspeed
  takeoff/   80_knots, v1, rotate, positive_climb, climb

Same layout under boeing/ and generic/.

How the mod picks a sound

1. Config plane type → airbus / boeing / generic
2. Look in that pack’s folder
3. If missing → fall back to generic/, then root gpws/ / callout/

How to install a custom pack (personal use)

1. Build or unpack the jar
2. Replace .ogg files under airbus/ and/or boeing/ (same filenames)
3. Re-zip as jar or put a resource pack that overrides
   assets/aircraft_warning_system/sounds/...
4. In-game: right-click sensor → set plane type to Airbus or Boeing

Format

• Ogg Vorbis only (.ogg)
• Mono is fine; keep levels similar so volume config stays usable
• Missing files are skipped or fall back — no crash

What’s already “real” vs placeholder

Replace takeoff .oggs first if you want V1 / rotate / climb to sound proper.
