Re: Fs2k2 Scasm variabiles

[cloudandy]

hi to all
i'm working with fsds and i found out that some old scasm variables may be
inserted in fsds language.
i would like to know if somewhere there's a list of *all* variables which work
with fs2002 and relative commands.
by now i've tested 28c-282(in a moving radar, and in flashing lights)-7BE ( for

COM frequencies)
i would like to know if there are variables for
NAV1-NAV2-distance from aircraft-....
thank you very much

The Microsoft Scenery SDK for FS98 contains a detailed listing of the
FS global vars, most of them still valid for FS2K/2K2. As well does the
FS2000 scenery SDK contain a chapter about global vars, but incomplete.
Distance from viewpoint is 33B. I don´t know if there is really a variable
for distance from aircraft (which is not always identical with viewpoint).

Hey

how do you make objects show up when you use the 7be command in fsds
you must enter the freq. in the v1 field......right

here is my example... its just a simple box ( api macro)

; Part: Box
:Part0
IfVarAnd( :CNT0 7be 123.00 )
Return
:CNT0
Points( 0
-99 -99 -99 ; 0
-99 100 -99 ; 1
100 100 -99 ; 2
100 -99 -99 ; 3
-99 -99 100 ; 4
-99 100 100 ; 5
100 100 100 ; 6
100 -99 100 ; 7
)
;RGBSColor( ef 121 121 121 )
Dwx( 2d ) ; color command
Dbd( 121 ) ; red
Dbx( ef ) ; flag/transparency
Dbd( 121 ) ; green
Dbd( 121 ) ; blue
Poly( 0 0 -32767 100.00 0 1 2 3 )
Poly( 0 0 32767 100.00 7 6 5 4 )
Poly( -32767 0 0 100.00 5 1 0 4 )
Poly( 32767 0 0 100.00 2 6 7 3 )
Poly( 0 32767 0 100.00 5 6 2 1 )
Poly( 0 -32767 0 100.00 0 3 7 4 )
Return
:End
EndA

if you have a macro like this i will love to see it so i can figure what im
doing wrong.

Hello Christian

Try to implement the argument as BCD-hex-value into the IfVarAnd, not as
decimal.
So, instead

IfVarAnd( :CNT0 7be 123.00 )

type

IfVarAnd( :CNT0 7be 0x8FC )

The first digit of "!23.00" is omitted in 7be (to fit into the 16 bit variable

format!), and then the remaining "23.00" are transferred to "2300", and then
converted as a hex expression.
If you have switched your COM1 to 123.00 at the panel, the 7be var contains
8FC, so you have to ask for that value in IfVarAnd. In IfVarAnd, you should
use only hex values as expression argument.
If you have switched to 119.05, then 7be reads decimal 1905, hex 771.
You can read in my macro tutorial at www.combatflight.de about this and others.
