Time property

[JakeRogers 1]

Time is not listed as a choice for a Property trigger, although most planes have a clock. The flight file specifies the start time for a mission. At a given point in the mission that is time variable, I need to know the time for an intercept waypoint. Short of adding hundreds of timer triggers, for an action that only one would trigger; has anyone figured out how to capture elapsed time for use in programming a mission? Thanks.Jake

Hi,

has anyone figured out how to capture elapsed time for use in programming a mission? Thanks.Jake

You can use the free SimVar extension code to do this and much more. It comes with the demo of the Mission Editor, and is free including for commercial use.Basically you add one new command to capture the starting time, another to capture the ending time, a third to subtract them and a fourth to do something if the value is within a range you specify.http://fsaddon.eu/wpfsaddon/fsaddon-products/mission_editor/Be sure to get the latest build from http://forums.fsaddon.eu/viewforum.php?f=22 .Cheers,Jim
