• 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.

Actiondialog linked to timer trigger set at stop 5.

Hi Folks

BP -
Is the remainder of the mission loading,
or are you in free-flight ?
If so the error may be elsewhere in your code.

Suggest you download Jim Keir's FSX Mission Editor, (from FS-Addons).

It's extremely easy to use, and you can clearly see the relationships.
It has full error checking & debugging routines.

As I adviced you yesterday, please check regularly if your mission works correctly.
I guess Paul is right and you've got an error in the mission script, thus the mission does not load at all.
 
Hi

Thanks guys. I ran it though mission editor error section. it showed me where the problem was. i have fixed it. however, do you now if it possble to have a goal finnished by say restarting the engines of the aircraft or switching a switch in the aircraft. as i want one of the goals to be engine start up goals.

thanks

Have you flown any mission where this might occur ?

You have the SDK.
The SDK contains mission source code.

Open the mission in FSXME.

Look at the FSXME Help manual.
Read up on property triggers & conditions.

Thanks for the reply. But i have done all that and i am still lost. I have a failur trigger linked to a proximity trigger that is linked to an area and action dialog. is that right. What i want is a plane to fly though and area and the engine to stop. pass another area and the engine to restart. but the trigger is not firing when the plane passes thought.

thanks for all your help
 
oh and do you know what could be the cause of this. This is the mission compass it covers the whole screen. I really do not know what is wrong with this.

Hi Folks

BP -
Please see your PMs.

Can you post a screenie of the relevant nodes, (taken in FSXME).
Also include the error messages from "All Errors" (copy all, and paste).

And please: read the SDK carefully. It's (almost) everything there.

With failure triggers you have to play around a bit until you find the setting you want.
