I was trying to be able to select all tanks from the #3 Enginethen select left main tank from the 3 engine and be able to selectthe tank for the proper tank depending on the diff phase of flightso i figured out that storing the variable in engine3 fuel valve I was able to select the tank using the mouse I got it to work exceptit only works in the default mode and the bitmaps don't change.Also when I try to save the flight it saves the #1 #2 both main tanksfor the proper engine except the #3 #4 Engine main tanks aren't savedand it saves them all Tanks for the 3 and 4 engines and what that doesis saves an unbalanced fuel load if you don't change it back to the #3 and #4 main tanks. I really need to save the Panel state. I tried to use a config.ini except it don't work i guess i don't know how to do it the bae 146 panel project seemed to make the panel state save. Here is what I did to get the mouse to work.// SDK.engine3_fuel_valve.c// Copyright © 2000 Microsoft Corporation.

Using The Token Variables TURB_ENGINE_3_TANK_SELECTOR KEY_FUEL_SELECTOR_3_RIGHT KEY_FUEL_SELECTOR_3_LEFT_MAIN KEY_FUEL_SELECTOR_3_OFF I was Trying to Use different Fuel Tanks While feeding the Num 3 Engine and I can't get anything to Work! I was using The Make Icon fron the Fuel selector SDK as a Templete. Except I can't get it working at all. I Will Put my code here that I can only make it work exactly like the default only the words are changed from (fuel_selector) to my words (engine_3_tank_selector)If Someone would Help me out it would be Appreciated and if Someone Else has the problem maybe it would help them also.

I Was trying to Learn XML so I can make an Overhead PanelFor a 747-400 in FSX. I was thinking of making the gauge for When like you are at an airport and you are hooked up with a generatorcart and have power applied to the aircraft. The 747 needs 2 cartsand to have power available before you turn the power switch on. I was thinking that if you are parked at a parking spot with a Jetway, thenhave the XML code ask is TOGGLE_JETWAY hooked up true or false like an if then Else statement then have power Available on the Overhead panel.Then Now you have power applied to the Aircraft. First ? // Next How do you use the APU like APU_GENERATOR_SWITCH_TOGGLE Use "No" Aircraft Fuel while operating just like hooked up to a Generator cart on the line with support Equiptment. Also how would you turn on the Hydraulics withouthaving an Engine running Like in real Life, not having it being indexed:to an Engine in FSX. I am just Trying to Learn XML I have good Ideas Except I don't Know How to do! Any Help Would be Greatly Appreciated!
