Path Validate Tick

Header | Source code

This tick handles the validation of the path by the ground control station operator.

From a high level, this tick occurs after the initial path has been generated but before it has been uploaded to the plane. At this point, the ground control station operator has two options:

  1. Validate the generated initial path.
  2. Request a new initial path to be generated.

This tick handles the logic of detecting when one of these options are selected. It does this by aquiring a LockPtr of the Tick, and calling the setStatus method.

TODO:

Look here to see the GCS routes that handle the validate and generate new path requests.
