MSFS20 Intake animation

[kcgb]

I am making an aircraft that has an auxiliary intake door that opens progressively below Mach 0.55. I have managed to get this animation to work fine without much hassle but now I want to add the extra parameter of the engines needing to be running for the door to be open, my animation doesn't seem to work with the extra additions to my code, can anyone spot the issue?

"rintake" is the one that I'm testing with the engine needing to be running code, "lintake" is the working door closing with speed code.

I have sorted it, was indexing the wrong engine.....

For future reference, if anyone ever needs to do something similar here is my code. It now references engine RPM instead as I wanted it to open during startup, Also <ANIM_LAG> added to smooth out the open-close transition on startup/shutdown.

<UseTemplate Name="ASOBO_GT_Anim_Code">
    <ANIM_NAME>rintake</ANIM_NAME>
    <ANIM_CODE>
            (A:GENERAL ENG RPM:2, rpm) 1000 >= if{ (A:AIRSPEED MACH, mach) 100 * 55 - abs }
            els{ 0 }
    </ANIM_CODE>
    <ANIM_LENGTH>55</ANIM_LENGTH>
    <ANIM_LAG>80</ANIM_LAG>
</UseTemplate>

Turns out I need a hand again. The r_intake code was working fine yesterday, but has since broken, can anyone see any issues with it? l_intake was my attempt to fix but also isn't working....

That's in the second ANIM_CODE section... right at the beginning. Also, in the first ANIM_CODE you have 1000 >= before the (&lt; and in the second ANIM_CODE you don't.
