mainpanel_init.lua stuff?

[=Andre=]

Guys, what about adding some cockpit lamps and controls stuff into mainpanel_init.lua for simpit builders and other similar goals?

Almost nothing to read at the moment, or have I missed something?

Could you please comment?

[=Andre=]

I've heard that Razbam is in close contact with the community. That turned out to be just rumors.

:cry:

I am not sure what do you want.

If you are not sure you can ask a question any time. To disregard seems not to be the best policy.

What O.o?

Are you for real?

 

Certainly not the way to initiate appropriate communications. Not to mention the arrogance of expecting others to query you rather than offer clarification to a rather provoking comment.

 

Must be troll time again - spring is here and no female companionship?

Hmmm.... April fools day is well over. Trolling perhaps?

I think he made a mistake of thinking it's still 1st of April for real : D

I won't play games. If you have a feature request then be clear and concise otherwise we will disregard your post.

 

Now, for the second time. What is it that you want, since it is clear that I do not know what you are talking about?

Hi Zeus67,

thanks for your answer.

Please have a look at the file attached. That's mainpanel_init.lua for MiG-15bis from \Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\MiG-15bis\Cockpit\Scripts

We can find lots of usefull stuff in the file: controls, gauges, lights, panel shake parameters, etc., accessible via Export.lua

 

	local MainPanel = GetDevice(0)
	MainPanel:update_arguments()
	local LandingGearL_Up = MainPanel:get_argument_value(74)
	local LandingGearL_Dwn = MainPanel:get_argument_value(75)
	local LandingGearR_Up = MainPanel:get_argument_value(78)
	local LandingGearR_Dwn = MainPanel:get_argument_value(79)
	local LandingGearN_Up = MainPanel:get_argument_value(76)
	local LandingGearN_Dwn = MainPanel:get_argument_value(77)

Other ED and BelSimTek modules give us such possibilities as well. Could you please add similar data for M2000C?

Andre,

 

you have this kind of information in the clickabledata.lua file, located in "Cockpit" folder....

Thanks for the tip Exo7,

the files have a bit in common, but clickabledata.lua is a pretty different file for other purposes.

I have build my own M-2000C DCS-BIOS Library with this file and with the lua console (and with the help of Ian ;) )... so i have all indicator lights, switches, pots, and displays working...

Would you please share argument numbers for landing gear lights?

[Exo7]

Landing lights switch is

device #16

arg #450

command : 3450

arg limit : -1, 1

arg step : 1.

 

You can find it in clickabledata.lua file.

I mean Langing Gear Indicator (3 green) lights. Not switch.

[Exo7]

Sorry,

 

The L GEAR is #417

The AUX GEAR (nose) is #418

The R GEAR is #419

hi Jojo,

you can't find the indicator light args in a file, you have to use the lua console to find them.

I'd prefer to find them in mainpanel_init.lua file, as usually.

Don't forget that me module is in Beta branch, and still WIP.

Maybe at the end you'll get the args in the mainpanel_init.lua

;)

It's a right time to ask for that :)
