Knob rotation

[Fedoz]

Hey,

i am currently working on a cockpit model. However i am currently struggling to animate the rotating knobs in the overhead panel. Inside MCX the animation is absolutely fine, but when i want to rotate the knob inside the simulator nothing happens. I see the clickspot but the knob will not rotate. Other objects with the same animation are working flawless. Maybe someone can help me with this.


Best regards
Vincent

Rotating knobs need at least three keys to be set: beginning (0), middle (50) and end (100).

Some rotating objects require even more keys, such as: 0, 25, 50, 75, 100

I have five keys for this specific knob (0, 25, 50, 75, 100, 360). I think it has something to do with the code in the modeldef.xml.

Post the entire <PartInfo> script then for that knob so we can diagnose the problem.

This one is from the knob which is working fine:

  <PartInfo>
    <Name>custom_rec_Event_22</Name>
    <MouseRect>
      <Cursor>Hand</Cursor>
      <TooltipText>MFD 1 Brightness</TooltipText>
      <MouseFlags>WheelDown+WheelUp+LeftDrag+LeftSingle</MouseFlags>
      <CallbackCode>
        (M:Event) 'LeftSingle' scmp 0 ==
        if{ (M:X) (&gt;L:EmbMfd1BrightPos, position) }
        (M:Event) 'WheelDown' scmp 0 ==
        if{ -1 (&gt;L:EmbMfd1BrightClick, number) }
        (M:Event) 'WheelUp' scmp 0 ==
        if{  1 (&gt;L:EmbMfd1BrightClick, number) }
        (M:Event) 'LeftDrag' scmp 0 ==
        if{
        (M:X) (L:EmbMfd1BrightPos, position) - 5 / int s0 0 !=
        if{ l0 (&gt;L:EmbMfd1BrightClick, number) (M:X) (&gt;L:EmbMfd1BrightPos, position) }
        }
      </CallbackCode>
    </MouseRect>
  </PartInfo>

<PartInfo>
    <Name>custom_anim_EmbMfd1BrightClick_06</Name>
    <AnimLength>360</AnimLength>
    <Animation>
      <Parameter>
        <Code>(L:EmbMfd1BrightClick, number) 0 * (L:EmbMfd1Bright, number) +</Code>
      </Parameter>
    </Animation>
  </PartInfo>

and this from the knob which is stuck and doesn´t rotate:

  <PartInfo>
    <Name>custom_rec_Event_20</Name>
    <MouseRect>
      <Cursor>Hand</Cursor>
      <TooltipText>Main Panel Flood Lights</TooltipText>
      <MouseFlags>WheelDown+WheelUp+LeftDrag+LeftSingle</MouseFlags>
      <CallbackCode>
        (M:Event) 'LeftSingle' scmp 0 ==
        if{ (M:X) (&gt;L:EmbPanelFloodLtPos, position) }
        (M:Event) 'WheelDown' scmp 0 ==
        if{ -1 (&gt;L:EmbPanelFloodLtClick, number) }
        (M:Event) 'WheelUp' scmp 0 ==
        if{  1 (&gt;L:EmbPanelFloodLtClick, number) }
        (M:Event) 'LeftDrag' scmp 0 ==
        if{
        (M:X) (L:EmbPanelFloodLtPos, position) - 5 / int s0 0 !=
        if{ l0 (&gt;L:EmbPanelFloodLtClick, number) (M:X) (&gt;L:EmbPanelFloodLtPos, position) }
        }
      </CallbackCode>
    </MouseRect>
  </PartInfo>


<PartInfo>
    <Name>custom_anim_EmbPanelFloodLtClick_359</Name>
    <AnimLength>360</AnimLength>
    <Animation>
      <Parameter>
        <Code>(L:EmbPanelFloodLtClick, number) 0 * (L:EmbPanelFloodLt, number) +</Code>
      </Parameter>
    </Animation>
  </PartInfo>

they both have the exact same animation
