Trouble with F-14 ARG + Trigger

[JSal16]

This is my first go trying to use a cockpit ARG that feeds into a trigger. I believe I'm doing it correctly but nothing happens. My ultimate goal is to have a trigger based on SEAM Lock (9203).

I have a "Once Trigger" > Conditions - X:Cockpit Argument in Range "9203", -0.09, -1.0 > Message to All

I found the Cockpit Param here and tested it in the model view for the F-14B. I believe the Cockpit Arg and the values are correct but the trigger won't fire. 

What am I missing?

Check the values, they are tricky when negative .. I believe it should be from -1 to -0.09  ... not the other way around, as actually -0.09 is greater than -1

That worked - thank you 

 

While I have you.... the other one I'm struggling with is a trigger based on catapult launch. I've tried doing something similar with Pilot Salute (1600) but I'm not sure that's the same as the Tomcat control of "Catapult Salute". Any thoughts on how I could create a trigger for the moment a Tomcat launches?

The F-14B has a parameter for horizontal acceleration in G:

 

BASE_SENSOR_HORIZONTAL_ACCEL

 

perhaps you could trigget when that parameter exceeds say 0.5 while it is on a Moving Zone placed over the catapult of the carrier?

Interesting....I'll give that a try, thank you. Is there a place/link to find F-14 base sensor lists?

I got the parameter list using the software DCS-BIOS, specifically its Lua-Console utility
