Re: [Flightgear-devel] condition/mixture control
* SydSandy -- Monday 28 January 2008: Does anyone have any objection to binding the mixture M/m control to the Condition control , since they both are fuel controls on different engines ? I object. The functions controls.mixtureAxis() and controls.adjMixture() should only do what their name says. If you want to use the mixture property for condition, then either just redefine the wrappers (whereby the conditionAxis() function would yet have to be defined) controls.adjMixture = controls.adjCondition; controls.mixtureAxis = controls.conditionAxis; or use the mixture property in the FDM config file instead of the condition property (with a comment explaining it): - control-setting axis=/controls/engines/engine[0]/condition value=1.0/ + control-setting axis=/controls/engines/engine[0]/mixture value=1.0/ m. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] condition/mixture control
As a third possibility, you could define a simple alias in the *-set.xml file: controls engines engine n=0 condition alias=/controls/engines/engine[0]/mixture/ /engine /engines /controls Then you can use the condition property as much as you like, while the controls wrappers don't have to be modified. m. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

I object. The functions controls.mixtureAxis() and controls.adjMixture() should only do what their name says. Hi, I have a somewhat related question: In the current controls.nas mixtureAxis(), propellerAxis() and carbHeatAxis() operate on all engines, while throttleAxis() operates only on selected engines. IMHO the former functions ought to behave like the latter and only affect the selected engines. Or do multi engine aircraft usually have no way to control those parameters for individual engines?

Here I have just set this in the controls.nas file ...
var mixtureAxis = func {
var val = cmdarg().getNode(setting).getValue();
if(size(arg) 0) { val = -val; }
props.setAll(/controls/engines/engine, mixture, (1 - val)/2);
props.setAll(/controls/engines/engine, condition, (1 - val)/2);
}
