|
|
Yes, MPD will be available for LDLite on the March 31 release (v. 1.7). I've done some behind-the-scenes restructuring of how files get loaded and parsed in support of some other stuff, and the MPD support will happen easily. However, you will need (...) (26 years ago, 21-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I just noticed that the oilcan is missing from the 6246 group: (URL) this because it hasn't been modeled yet (maybe due to its complexity?) or is it just located elsewhere for some historical reason? Anyway, presumably it would go in as 6246F when (...) (26 years ago, 20-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
