In telnet just type set /autopilot/route-manager/input -123.456,37.89 to append this waypoint to the list at runtime. That's <lon>,<lat>. (Maybe we should swap those?) You can also demand a particular altitude: set /autopilot/route-manager/input -123.456,37...@8000 Possible formats are: (airport|fix|nav|lon,lat)[...@alt] -- e.g. "k...@900" There are commands available for clearing the list, removing entries, etc. @clear ... clear route @pop ... remove first entry @delete3 ... delete 4th entry @insert2:k...@900 ... insert "k...@900" as 3rd entry k...@900 ... append "k...@900" For example set /autopilot/route-manager/input @clear This works also from the property browser, or via Nasal etc. The route manager dialog uses the same interface. Of course, you have to use an autopilot which takes the waypoints from the route manager if you want your aircraft flown through all the points. The default AP does this. m. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!
