FGTools

Tools for creating, managing and editing FlightGear scenery, aircraft, …

Installation

Note: To run these scripts you need Python 3, Python 2 won't work. Recommended version is 3.10 as I only have that installed so couldn't test with any other versions - earlier 3.x versions should work, but no guarantee !

Normal user / Official releases

The latest release of FGTools can be installed with pip:

pip install fgtools

Developers

If you want to always have the latest bleeding edge code, or want to contribute, you should install from Git:

git clone this repo and put it in a place of your choice, say /home/user/fgtools:

/home/user$ git clone https://github.com/TheFGFSEagle/fgtools

Then, cd into the cloned repo folder and install the code:

cd fgtools
pip install -e .

To update the code, you'd run (from the same folder):

git pull
