Hi Andrew,

just tried to import a new module. Extracted the download to /Download/Linda and select in LINDA Maintenance the folder ..\Download\Linda\A2A_C172_v1_03\A2A_C172_v1_03

Then I get a error message 20.0 is not a valid floating point value

Also I think, it is much easier to extract direct to the LINDA folder, overwriting the included Linda folders, as doing first a temporary unzip.

It would be much easier if we could just select the downloaded ZIP

 

 

Hi Roland

Thank you for the report. Can you try renaming the module folder to \A2A_C172_v1_3 and importing again? I have not coded for the leading zero (i.e. _03).

No luck Andrew,

just the same error.

I'l tried a different module (Dash) with the same result.

I have found the problem. It lies inside the module readme.txt file. LINDA 2.9.4 is expecting a single decimal version number (ie. 1.3) and fails if a multi-point version number (ie. 1.0.3). If you edit the readme.txt file and change 1.0.3 to 1.3 then it will import correctly.

I am testing a fix with 2.9.5 now.

Fix available in LINDA 2.9.5 download.

Hi Scott,

unfortunately it is not fixed in 2.9.5

Get the same error with the A2A Module, even when I edit the readme and change 1.0.3 to 1.3

 

Please send me a screen shot of maintenance page and error message. 

Here you are

I have retested on my system and I do not get your error message. Before I start changing the code again, please do the following for me:

• Check the build number of 2.9.5 have (see About page for 2.9.5.543).
• Copy A172 module to desktop and try again.
• Paste contents of aircraft readme.txt file here (\linda\aircrafts\A2A Cessna 172R).

It is the "language and region" setting in system, Andrew,

I changed to English layout regarding decimal point and it works.

Understood. Why did I not think about differences in the representation of the decimal point? You use commas and the rest of us use fullstops!

ehhh, it's not only Germany using comma :-)

         Full stop/Period
         Comma
         Both, official or common or Apostrophe (')

If you take a closer look, in Europe GB is the only country using point, maybe that's the true reason for Brexit :-)))

 

Thank you for the bug report and beta testing. New version 2.9.6 (build 546) available under Downloads.
