Does the 172 even have anti skid?

Obviously, a lot of simple aircrafts do not have it, so indeed it's "cheating". However, as long you as don't possess a set of pedals, you are not able to engage the brakes with adequate precision (to avoid locking them up). In other words, not using yoke and pedals, you're not fully immersed anyhow and not using anti-skid will only degrade your GA simulation. That's my take on it.

Pete's code above in post #15 is sooo much more elegant, simpler, and -- reduces the CPU's transistor flip-flops by a bit.. Every "bit/byte"   :lol: counts right?

 

Except it has one small typo, so below is a tested version that works.

-------------------------------------------------------
-- FSX Lua plug-in for automatic anti skid activation --

function anti_skid()
    ipc.writeUB(0x0BFD, 1)
end

event.offset(0x0BFD, "UB", "anti_skid")
