Checklist on kneeboard

[Tailspin45]

Not a bug per se, but it would be great to have an abbreviated checklist on kneeboard, along with a frequency card.

It's already possible to do this manually.

Look in the "temptexture" folder and edit the picture with the service-limits to your liking with paint.

 

And it is also possible to add additional pages via a lua edit .

I'm not in front of my pc right now so I can't give you more info or the exact file-path.

Will come back to you in a couple of hours.

Go to

\DCS World\Scripts\Aircrafts\_Common\Cockpit\KNEEBOARD\indicator\CUSTOM

 

And edit the test_user_chart.lua with a proper editor (notepad++)

 

At line #64 to set a bitmap name.

The default image is

\DCS World\Bazar\TempTextures\pilot_KA50_notepad.bmp

Edit this or create a new.

 

 

 

And edit #67 for a new text . A new line is defined by inserting "\n"

 

Example:

dx  = 50/512
add_picture("pinup",            0,0,2,2*GetAspect(),
            dx,0,1 - 2*dx,1)

add_text("\n\n\      Howdy\n    Cowboy !\n \n   Let's Ride !\n   ...and catch\n   me a rainbow! ",
        0.05,0.05)
