• 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.

FS2004 Correct parms for using vertical speed XML script

I'm trying to incorporate a vertical speed parameter in an XML script to trigger an AI aircraft animation only when the model is level, IOW not climbing or descending.

To do this I have paired an altitude range parameter with another variable, a vertical speed parameter.

Here is the code:
<code>
20000 24000 (A:INDICATED ALTITUDE, feet) rng (A:VERTICAL SPEED, feet per minute) 100 &lt; * * 100
</code>

The idea being that if the AI model's altitude range is between 20,000 and 24,000 ft. and the model's vertical speed is 100 fpm and less, the result would be:

1*1*100=100 which is the key framed animation number.

However the animation is triggering as soon as the model reaches 20,000 ft. regardless of the vertical speed parameter.

It's as if the code is completely ignoring the second A variable all together.

Does anyone know if "feet pre minute" is the correct unit to use for VERTICAL SPEED in an XML script?
 
Are you sure that VS is available for AI planes? If yes, try this:
Code: 
20000 24000 (A:INDICATED ALTITUDE, feet) rng (A:VERTICAL SPEED, feet per minute) 100 &lt; [COLOR="Red"]* 100 *[/COLOR]
