Is it possible to recover radar range and azimuth setting?

[raus]

I am working in a small mod (F/A-18C), for ease of life. I wanted to recover the current scale of the Radar Attack format, and the azimuth of scan.

First thought was to dig into the DDIs themselves, but from what I see in the lua files, this info is painted (file RDR_AA_AG_BASE.lua) onto the DDI using addStrokeText, which refers to a .svg file with the font used. Furthermore, the info is passed not as a value, but managed by a controller that seems to be on the non-user accessible area...

Maybe we could write our own function using the same controller, to receive the data, but then I am not sure how could I translate that into a numeric value.

Has anyone an idea if this could be achieved? And if so, a hint or headstart would be really appreciated, as I seem to have stumbled against a wall here

 

Thanks!!
