Custom beacons.lua ILS not working


Recommended Posts

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?

Your ILS localizer/glideslope frequency pairing is out of range ...

 

VOR/DME pairing chart ...

 

Now it is working like a charm.

 

Thank so much!
