• 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.

    MSFS24 GSX, LVARS & Some basic questions

    Hey Max, thanks a lot! SimConnect inspector didn´t showed any exception during runtime while setting the LVAR, so I guess my implementation works after reading your answer. I will try to see what happens in the Behaviors Inspector, this is a great adive! Thanks and enjoy your weekend :)

    MSFS20 Trying to get aircraft registration via SimConnect

    Using FLOAT32 does the same: {"fuelQuantityGallons":{"fuel:":1.4633545005490317e-22} Removing mutex gives me the same problem.

    MSFS20 Trying to get aircraft registration via SimConnect

    Hey Max, unfortunately I need the current registration to print it out on an UI. But I think I need to find another way or exclude this, as SimConnect isn´t able of handling this. Now, I got a similiar issue. Returns: ""fuel:":4.7610881823757142e-167" I don´t know why, but I am massively...

    MSFS20 Trying to get aircraft registration via SimConnect

    Thanks, tested your improvements and they are really helpful! Anyway, as you said the ATC ID doesn´t seem to be very reliable. In main menu I got at least the right id from the last flight, but as soon as I load into a flight the id changes to D-EFCS again. Do you know another way to get the...

    Hey Max, thanks for your answer. Here are the code snippets: I am then returning the collected information via a localhost http server in json format. I am getting valid information, but it is not the right data (f.e when using the fenix320 with an Austrian livery, aircraft.cfg = "atc_id =...

    Hello guys, I am trying to get the current aircraft registration (f.e D-AICA). I tried it with ATC ID, but I only get strange symbols and non sense output. So, here are my questions: 1. Is there any SimVar I can use to get the aircraft registration? 2. How to do it and avoid getting incorrect...

    MSFS20 Trouble getting a proper way to check, if engines are running (Fenix 320)

    Hello everyone, I am trying to use SimConnect to check if the engines of an aircraft are running. I am relatively new to developing within a Flight Simulator environment. My test aircraft is the Fenix A320. From what I understand, Fenix uses an external engine model, which might be causing the...
