Scifer Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 (edited) I am adding custom beacons to Syria and succeeding until the point where ILS is not working (tested with Huey only). Here is what I did in beacons.lua (file attached): -- Custom Beacons { display_name = _('Rayak'); beaconId = 'airfield51_0'; type = BEACON_TYPE_VOR_DME; callsign = 'RAY'; frequency = 107000000.000000; position = { -130181.8125, 909.15051269531, 4097.2592773438 }; direction = 0.000000; positionGeo = { latitude = 33.850690831138, longitude = 35.98781336668 }; sceneObjects = {'t:99550262'}; }; { display_name = _('Rayak'); beaconId = 'airfield51_1'; type = BEACON_TYPE_AIRPORT_HOMER_WITH_MARKER; callsign = 'RAK'; frequency = 350100.000000; position = { -131681.046875, 888.30596923828, 2396.8859863281 }; direction = 227.000000; positionGeo = { latitude = 33.836737715793, longitude = 35.969935539154 }; sceneObjects = {'t:522781717'}; }; { display_name = _('Rayak'); beaconId = 'airfield51_2'; type = BEACON_TYPE_AIRPORT_HOMER_WITH_MARKER; callsign = 'RYK'; frequency = 350200.000000; position = { -134789, 871.50836181641, -936.03497314453 }; direction = 227.000000; positionGeo = { latitude = 33.807856734319, longitude = 35.934964382606 }; sceneObjects = {'t:522781717'}; }; { display_name = _(''); beaconId = 'airfield51_3'; type = BEACON_TYPE_ILS_LOCALIZER; callsign = 'YAK'; frequency = 107100000.000000; position = { -131166.578125, 892.31683349609, 2948.5236816406 }; direction = 227.000000; positionGeo = { latitude = 32.677190, longitude = 35.175056 }; sceneObjects = {'t:201097390'}; chartOffsetX = 0; }; { display_name = _(''); beaconId = 'airfield51_4'; type = BEACON_TYPE_ILS_GLIDESLOPE; callsign = 'YAK'; frequency = 107100000.000000; position = { -131166.578125, 892.31683349609, 2948.5236816406 }; direction = 227.000000; positionGeo = { latitude = 32.677190, longitude = 35.175056 }; sceneObjects = {'t:201097390'}; chartOffsetX = 0; }; } Can anyone tell me why ILS is not working? Also: What is the difference between position and positionGeo? What sceneObjects stands for? beacons.lua Edited August 24, 2021 by Scifer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
