FS2004 / FSDS2 Variables

Postby Ben252 » Wed Jan 28, 2004 11:35 am

Hi All,
Can anyone shed any light on this problem please:
I am designing an RAF Puma HC1 using FSDS2. Almost finished the basic aircraft design but want to add some addditional touches such as wheel chocks, open engine panels etc only visible when engines are off.

I created the new parts and added them using the prop0_rpm variable qualified with inrange 0 to 0 setting, they appear and disappear on cue. Now for the problem - the existing parts (closed engine panels). I modified the setting for these parts to use the opposite of the above (prop0_rpm, notinrange 0 to 0) this didn't work at all, so attempted to use the inverse. (prop0_rpm inrange 1 to 20000). This appeared to work but now I have the situation where at rest the aircraft appears with chocked wheels, open engine panels just as planned. Start the engines, wheel chocks disappear, engine panels close (just as planned) but when engine revs increase the closed engine panels disappear. I have tried increasing the inrange figure evan as high as 9000000 to no avail. Help!
