• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

    MSFS20 Rough Running Engine - Best methods for setting

    I think I might have found something. I also have the following in our Bonanza_g36_interior.xml <!-- ENGINE #####################################--> <Component ID="ENGINE_Throttle_Levers"> <UseTemplate Name="ASOBO_ENGINE_Lever_Throttle_Template">...

    MSFS20 Rough Running Engine - Best methods for setting

    Hey, really, thank you so much for your help with this! But sadly this still moves the throttle back to the 0% position when it updates in the loop. The CustomEngineModelling.xml is in the ModelBehaviorDefs if that makes any difference?

    MSFS20 Rough Running Engine - Best methods for setting

    Looking at both the Simvar Watcher and SpadNext I can see the L:THROTTLE1_SET changes between 0 and 1 so I think your intercept code is ok?

    MSFS20 Rough Running Engine - Best methods for setting

    Thanks for all your help! I did spot my mistake after posting and reading through the code again, have just tried the above and the throttle still drops to 0% when moving the throttle sadly. It's strange because the time code shouldn't be even letting the (L:THROTTLE1_SET,number) 100 *...

    Hi I think so, sorry I'm not that great with the XML stuff. I have this in the Bonanza_g36_interior.xml file <!-- intercepting throttle input #####################################--> <Component ID="throttleController"> <UseTemplate Name="CUSTOM_THROTTLE_CONTROLLER">...

    MSFS20 Rough Running Engine - Best methods for setting

    Hey @Marwan Gharib Thanks so much, I'm just trying to get my hear around your code and what is happening in https://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/threads/hijack-input-events-using-b-vars.454266/ but the theory behind it all sounds good. I've started trying to implement your psuedo code into RPN...

    MSFS20 Rough Running Engine - Best methods for setting

    It's on the list, :-) I eventually want to model as many of these as possible with our G36 Improvement Mod.

    MSFS20 Rough Running Engine - Best methods for setting

    @Anthony31 Thank you; I'll try the mixture ratio thing. I wish there was a way to simulate these things more easily. As for the random number - I've been using this which works well. <!-- random number times 30 equals a number between 0 and 30. Then adding 30 makes it between 30 and 60...

    MSFS20 Rough Running Engine - Best methods for setting

    Hi All I am trying to implement spark fouling in the a custom behaviour xml. I have a time that checks what the mixture ratio is and then counts up to between 30 & 60. Once there I want to implement/simulate the rough running of the engine but i'm having trouble making it realistic. At the...

    ReferenceError: Can't find variable: simvar

    Hey All I’ve created a custom in game panel which is loading ok. I’m having trouble however accessing simvars via the in game panel. I’m getting ReferenceError: Can’t find variable: simvar error in the coherent debugger. This is the code I’m using to load the HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html>...

    MSFS20 Aircraft Persistence

    Ok So I am kinda getting somewhere. I have managed to get the aircraft to save its fuel data to the datastore and then to read it on loading the aircraft. I have also managed to get the sim to write the values to the datastore when the bat 1 & engine is running therefore keeping up to date with...

    MSFS20 Aircraft Persistence

    Hi @Anthony31 Thanks for the pointers. Unfortunately SimVar.SetSimVarValue("L:Drifter_Prefs_Radio_ANL", "number", 1); doesn't work. I get a 0 in the console. The fuel is settable according to the SDK docs (what didn't copy below was the settable tick) FUEL TANK CENTER2 QUANTITY Current...

    MSFS20 Aircraft Persistence

    Ok, so hopefully I am on the right tack here. @ronh could I use your knowledge again? So as I understand so far, to use the DataStore.js I need to use this in a glass cockpit gauge. The only gauges available in the G36 are the NXi. I have added the folder structure to the G36 Improvement...

    MSFS20 Aircraft Persistence

    Thanks so much! And for spotting the exterior.xml! That had snuck back into the repo somehow during the testing. We had removed it a while ago. I'll get reading on the CoherentGT debugger and trace some of the concepts that WT & FBW are using for saving states. All I really want to do is save...
