• 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.

Just fooling around with python and SimConnect. This python code works for both MSFS2020 and MSFS2024. The 2024 SimConnect.dll is included in the zip, along with the python code, and a batchfile to convert the .py code into a windows executable. TCalc_Python

Edited...
I added Surface Type and (surface)Condition. Sometimes the type or condition might get stuck if you change the weather... then just disconnect and reconnect, and it should correct.
This could be useful for detecting surface types that stubbornly refuse to change with polygons, allowing you to explore other surface materials. There was a bit of lag with the older version, but I have improved this. This is also an example of using AI to convert C# code to a working python code. This app works in MSFS 2024 and MSFS 2020. SimConnect.dll is internally stored in the executable along with everything else, so it just works.
