• 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.

XML Gauge Assistance

Gents,

I am an amateur at writing xml, so I need a bit of advice. I am attempting to create some code that will automatically set NAV1 to a certain frequency when you get within 1.5nm of a particular airport. Since I have no idea what I am doing, I wrote the following which doesn't appear to be working:

<Macro Name="c">C:fs9gps:1</Macro>
<Element>
<Select>
<Value>
110.30 (&gt;L:NAV1store1,MHz)
((@c:NearestAirportCurrentICAO) NIKE == || (@c:NearestAirportCurrentICAO) NNGW ==) (@c:NearestAirportCurrentDistance, meters) 2778 &lt; &amp;&amp;
if{1, (L:NAV1store1,MHz) 100 * near 10000 % d 10 % r 10 / int d 10% r 10 / int d 10 % r 10 / int 16 * + 16 * + 16 * + (&gt;K:NAV1_RADIO_SET)}
</Value>
</Select>
</Element>

Any advice or suggestions would be most appreciated.
 
Simplify!

Hi,

Try making your code make the frequency change
by a switch. If you can do that. Then you can easily
make a trigger when your 15KN out!

DG,
 
1. Before you can query the gps module, you first have to tell it where you are...
Code:
(A:GPS POSITION LAT, Radians) (>@c:NearestAirportCurrentLatitude, Radians) 
(A:GPS POSITION LON, Radians) (>@c:NearestAirportCurrentLongitude, Radians)
2. You cannot "compare" string data as if it were numbers, you need to use the string compare operator:

Code:
@c:NearestAirportCurrentICAO) 'NIKE' scmi 0 ==
