• 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.

Knob or needle range

I hope someone will be in position to help.
I am trying to fix third party developer's bug. The problem is that N1 adjustment knob allows to put the needle only in 0-100 range while it should allow 0-120. Also the maximum figure in the corresponding Thrust Computer N1 correction window is 100.
I am not sure if the problem is with knob (1), needle (2) or maybe the associated window in the Thrust Computer panel (3). I am attaching a screenshot for reference.

The gauge file is *.cab with xml files within it. In the ENG N1 xml gauge both knob and the needle have such a value in Rotate element:
<Value Maximum="120" Minimum="0">
and some Nonlinearity values (Y,X) from 0 to 120.

The Thrust Computer window xml file has no range values at all, just a string reference to autopilot mode:
((A:AUTOPILOT RPM HOLD VAR,percent))

I don't want to put here all the code from xml files as i am not sure i that won't be an EULA breach.

So maybe that is the N1 Window in Thrust Computer that is limiting the rotation of the knob and the needle as well as its value in the window itself?

Any advise with regards how to fix the issue would be appreciated.

Kind regards,

Krzysztof

It is probably the variable AUTOPILOT RPM HOLD VAR, not the XML code that is limiting the value. You will probably not be able to change it.
